Gingham Again?

Is that gingham again?

Is that gingham?

Yes.  It is.  Gingham is so easy breezy to wear for hot summer work days.

White jeans are really easy to wear!!

Hollywood Secret: Wet Ones.

Yes.  Wet Ones.  Wardrobe people have them ON THEIR PERSON at all times when on-set, because actors are messy people.  Okay, maybe that's not nice to messy people.  Actors are normal and sometimes normal people spill on themselves and this product works.  The other day I was wearing white jeans and spilled mustard during lunch.  I took pictures of the miracle that are Wet Ones.

I carry them with me at all times when I am wearing white.

On my way!

Summer 2016 Inspiration

Gingham Shirt White Jeans

Where do you find your style inspiration?  Do you just pull something out of the closet and go, or do you see an outfit and think, "I have that already in my closet"?

Pinterest is the most amazing place to find inspiration.

Nailed it. Okay, maybe not...just missing the frappuccino. :D

Los Angeles Street Style.  

Gingham shirt is Maison Jules, from Macy's.  White jeans "rock star" style from Old Navy.  The bandolier holds my phone, I.D. and ATM card, perfect for work mode.

Back to work.

Casual Lunch Date

Lunch with an Old Friend

It's summer, right?  Well, it's cold at the beach and hard to gauge the temperature away from the marine layer.

But, it's summer, right?!  Time to pull out those shorts, but I need a tan... and a sweater!

Until I don't need a sweater...

The blue gingham shirt is from Macy's by Maison Jules.  White shorts from Old Navy (Hollywood secret: cut out the pockets, because they add unnecessary bulk, and sew them up).  Old belt from the Gap.  Old shoes from Aldo.  Purse by Coach.

My legs are pasty white, so it's time for leg make-up.  Yes.  Leg make-up.  At least until summer shines it's bountiful light on them.  If you have time and the inclination, a secret is to put on your self tanner in the evening and then let it tan overnight.  In the morning, you can shower off the excess before dressing.  I'm last minute, so make-up.

It took awhile to get the blending down.  A make-up artist gave me a large, fat make-up brush to help blend and that made all the difference in the world by swirling little circles until the streaks went away.
