At the heart of this outfit lies a head-to-toe co-ord set that re-imagines denim like never before. The textured, abstract design feels simultaneously organic and futuristic, resembling brush strokes or splattered paint. The monochromatic palette provides balance while keeping the focus on the intriguing fabric, ensuring that the set remains wearable yet undeniably avant-garde.

When it comes to fashion that commands attention, this ensemble takes center stage. It’s a dynamic collision of color, texture, and personality, blending boldness with an undeniably chic edge. The fuchsia pink cardigan is nothing short of a show-stopper. Its vibrant hue radiates confidence, while the soft knit material offers a comfortable yet polished feel.

When it comes to a pop of color… the answer is always YES! A vest, typically worn in a formal, has been re-imagined in a refreshing and edgy manner. The silhouette feels youthful and the hardware adds the perfect amount of bad ass to any look. If you’re looking to add this piece into a more conservative wardrobe you can pair this beauty with jeans, crisp white oxford, and loafer.

Mauve is a color that is rarely seen in a man’s wardrobe, especially when it comes to outerwear. So when I found this jacket it was love at first sight and I couldn’t resist. My luck continued when a few moments later I stumbled across a sweater in the same palette. A bold choice for outerwear I know and if you’re looking to introduce this color into your closet there’s so many ways to do with a little less gusto, LOL! A t-shirt, sock, or bag is a great way to dip your toe into this trend.

Coat szn is upon us! San Diego has had several days below 60 degrees, meaning fall is here to stay. Most recently I ransacked the outerwear section of my favorite online retailer, Boohoo Man. My approach to coats is quite simple, reimagined classics. Iconic plaid and houndstooth patterns are beautifully crafted in vibrant and sometimes unexpected colors.

The Canadian Tuxedo (denim on denim), regardless of it’s name, has become a part of American fashion. We have seen celebrities do it right and oh so wrong, remember MTV Music Award JT & Britney. If you’re going to create the look with the same color be sure to infuse some flair. I went with a tuxedo style jean and shirt with a splatter on the end of it.

Last night was the pinnacle of award season, THE OSCARS, and it was on another level! So many well deserved actors and actresses received their due credit. If you happened to catch one of my many Insta-stories from inside True North viewing party than you know the evening was a whole entire moment!

Sweater season is in full swing and it’s time to embrace the trend. Go bold with the color, fun prints, or opt for super soft texture. If you are really looking to make a statement find one that encompasses all three. With many designers looking to make room for their spring collection winter luxury is heavily discounted. I was instantly drawn to this pieces because of it’s color and once I touched it I had to have it.

The most wonderful time of the year is upon us! Christmas season is my all time favorite because people seem to genuinely be in a better mood, the seasonal holiday dishes, and I get to layer up my fashion. Aaaaaand if I’m being completely honest I absolutely love a good “Ugly Sweater”.

Lately, I've been bouncing from meetings to errands aka "adulting" and instead of wardrobe changes on those days, I'll make it a comfy luxe day. Pairing high-end sneaker with sweatpants or relaxed denim and a silky button down. The look is perfect because it still shows style to potential clients and also practical for hopping in and out of Ubers.

Louisiana Purchase is the newest edition to both Grind and Prosper Hospitality and the North Park food scene. I love when restaurants opt for a location that is off the beaten path. There was so much buzz around the opening of this establishment that I couldn’t wait to try it! First up was the flavorful blend of land and sea, crab stuffed chicken skin.

Spring is officially here and the flowers aren’t the only things changing around town. Monday night I was invited to the intimate tasting of the new Spring menu for InsideOUT. First up was the the heirloom tomato & burrata which at first glance I thought would be sweet and refreshing. It was for sure that however, there was a surprise element of spice which really upped the ante.

The weather is changing for the better making the last hour of the work day the worst! Once I’ve completed a full days work it’s a made dash for Happy Hour. Being that most of my clients are downtown that’s where I do a lot of happy hours and I must say I’ve be underwhelmed. However, Osetra is officially my go to spot thanks to their great selection of delicious bites and beverages.

Happy hour, just like real estate, is all about location. It needs to have good vibes, a tasty menu, festive cocktails, and an epic staff. Cloak & Petal has nailed all the requirements with such ease. Dining at C&P feels like you’re in the center of a contemporary museum and I love it. The Louis Vuitton artwork, cherry blossom trees, and the visually stunning tribute to two of the best rappers show a level of unmatched design work in Little Italy.

Locals and visitors to the East Village neighborhood can now enjoy sharable plates, draft beer and a lineup of innovative cocktails, all in the cozy confines of WhipHand American Brasserie + Beer Bank. I had a chance to check it out and it’s exactly what was missing in East Village. WhipHand aims to let customers take the experience into their own hands through 24 self-serve draft beers taps, along with a full cocktail bar serving up some unique libations.

Let the countdown to 2019 begin! Brace yourself for the hundreds of obligatory “Do Better”, “New Goals”, and “New Me” post on social media. For the past two NYE I’ve found that it’s best to keep it intimate and I plan on keeping that tradition alive this year. Why stand in absurd lines, both to get inside the club and again at the bar once inside, when you can spend that time enjoying those closest to you.

I can’t believe we are just 4 days away from Christmas and 10 days away from the New Year. We are in the home stretch of the holiday season and if you’re anything like me, the idea of cooking a huge meal just seems like a daunting and unnecessary task. So this year I’ve decided to let the professionals do the cooking and the dishes

In my never ending quest to bring you the best in dining, I landed in Hillcrest at Hillcrest Brewing Company last week. It just so happen to be pouring rain the one day a year we actually get it, but I’m glad I didn’t let it deter me.

A couple summers ago I managed to spend a week in the beautiful city of New Orleans. It was my first time down there and I immediately fell in love with everything about it. Talk about a city busting at the seams with culture.
