Dress, Victoria Beckham for Target. Shoes, Charlotte Russe. Bag, Kate Spade (similar here). When I first heard Victoria Beckham designed a collection for Target, I nearly fainted. Although Baby Spice was my favorite of the Spice Girls, Posh (a.k.a. Victoria Beckham) was a close second. Beckham’s affordable line of fun women’s clothing at Target is a … Continue reading Posh Approved
If you’re like me, it can be so hard to shop for a Mother’s Day gift. Despite knowing my mom’s taste quite well, I’m often conflicted. What can you possibly get for the woman who means everything to you? As a general rule of thumb, I like to shop for her gift(s) with this question in mind: What is something she … Continue reading
It’s no cliché that college goes by fast, but so does that first post-grad year. As graduation for my alma mater is practically days away, I realize that I will soon have been out of college for an entire year. For me, college was inspiring, challenging, and fulfilling. Maybe you feel the same. I fell in love, met some of my … Continue reading
While I spend most of my time in Los Angeles, it’s always nice to come back to my roots and recharge. After all, nothing can rival the fresh, smog-free air and peaceful nature of my family’s ranch. It truly is heaven on Earth. Springtime on the ranch is without-a-doubt my favorite. Although the more-than-generous amounts of rain … Continue reading Cox Vineyards Update: Springtime at the Ranch
Wine has been romanticized for quite some time, and for good reason. My running joke is that wine makes the perfect partner because it can never break your heart. I’m joking, obviously, but it’s kind of true, right? This then made me wonder if wines were “on the market,” so to speak, which would be comparable to a first love, summer … Continue reading If Wines Were Dateable…
When I was a kid, my mom would drag me and my sisters to countless flea markets and antique shows. At the time, I could care less about types of Majolica and old clocks (sorry, Mom), and was more interested in the answers to two questions: “When is lunch?” and “When are we going home?” While the … Continue reading Ten Days in Texas
I love traveling, but I never look forward to that inevitable trip through the airport. From feeling rushed through security to lugging my things to the terminal, I often board planes a little frazzled. However, I’ve found that having a thoughtfully-curated carry-on and some pre-flight rituals can make a huge difference. Since I leave for a trip soon, I … Continue reading What’s In My Carry On + My Pre-Flight Rituals
Looking to come to the wine side? When it comes to beer and wine, I often notice two divided camps. Some of my friends go wild for craft brews, while others’ eyes widen at the sight of a wine list. While I’m clearly partial to wine, I do enjoy visiting the beer camp for a cold one … Continue reading The Beer Drinker’s Guide to Wine
I’ve waxed poetic about Winc (formerly Club W) wines before (in this post). I mean, what is there not to love about $13 bottles of exclusive wine that are picked especially for you and shipped straight to your door? While most people prefer Winc to recommend wines to them based on answers to “Palate Profile” … Continue reading My Latest Winc Wine Delivery
Rob Davis did not set out to be a winemaker. In fact, he had always planned to study pre-med at the University of California at Davis. This past fall, Rob celebrated his 40th harvest at the Jordan Winery in Sonoma’s Alexander Valley and I couldn’t help but wonder when and why he traded in the stethoscope for … Continue reading Winemaker Spotlight: Rob Davis
