Just a quick shout out to my family and some grainy 'on-the-go' iPhone snaps, which do the trick of capturing my main L.A. interests this past while:
1) Dining at some great restaurants. For burgers, some love In-N-Out, but I'm a Bob's Big Boy girl.

| 1930s style blouse + skirt: Nudeedudee; shoes: Re-mix Anita shoes |
2) Exploring all that Southern California has to offer! So far, lots of grand adventures, including two days at Disneyland.

| Top: 1930s peasant blouse and 1930s striped beach bag; skirt: Nudeedudee; shoes: Re-mix Emily sandals |
3) Dancing! I've twirled and charleston-ed at the amazing Art Deco Cicada Club several times now, but there are other great places to go, like Joe's in Burbank.

| 1930s Velvet & Rayon Gown; shoes: Re-mix 'Ritz' silver heels |
I've also been spending lots of time with great friends and have done some volunteering. My cup runneth over!
Always a pleasure to visit California!!! I have quite the same picture with "Big Boy" in April and also went in Cicada to met Keely Smith... and went to Disneyland 4 years ago!!!!
ReplyDeleteVintage lovers always end in the same places...
I have a peasant blouse just like the one in your second photo that was my grandmother's, and it's one of my favorite oldthings. Hoping you enjoyed LA-dventures!

ReplyDeleteLove seeing candid snaps of you, elegant as always! x
ReplyDeleteI can never get enough your superbly styled, timelessly lovely outfits. Inspiring travel looks, dear gal - love that you were out on the west coast (albeit in a different country) recently (Cali and B.C. aren't that far apart after all).
