Coast



The other night we went for happy hour at the Coast restaurant at Shutters Hotel, where we enjoyed yummy (and cheap!) snacks and a glass of rosé while watching the sun sink into the Pacific. Shutters is one of my favorite places in LA - the hotel has a classic East Coast charm with a stunning view of beautiful Santa Monica beach. I just love everything about the hotel, though I haven't had a chance to actually stay there yet. Soon, hopefully!


This is an outfit that I wore to work, though I traded booties for strappy sandals and added a sparkly statement necklace (from Bauble Bar...buy it here) to take it into the evening. My shoes are by Badgley Mishka, cardigan from Zara, silk top from Banana Republic, and these jeans from Paige, which are quite literally the only ones I wear. 

My belt is old from a store in Canada, and my watch is this one from Piperlime. Chanel bag that I wear all the time (my boyfriend actually commented that I wear it too much which I don't even believe is possible). This one from Rice and Beans Vintage is very very similar and a really great price - if you're in the market, scoop it up!

  6. It's been way too long since I've had oysters, being in TO all summer definitely put a hold on the supply to amazing fresh seafood! Loving this look too, the jolt of hot pink totally brings together the look.

Definitely looking up Shutters Hotel the next down I happen to down there. :) I love your outfit--ladylike, classy, and pretty, especially those sandals, necklace, and that fun skinny belt!
