Holly Shorts

Holly Shorts Film Festival for Sal Masekela's documentary Alekesam. 

It was truly inspiring to learn Sal's life story along side his influential musician father, Hugh Masekela. 

Sal...now I know.

Hippie Child

Channeling my inner 70's. 

High waisted shorts, pants and skirts are my new obsession. They make any crop top look amazing (with out feeling trashy showing a little belly). I usually tuck in the front to show off the high rise, but because my shirt was shear, I went with the full tuck.

Find your style, and wear it with confidence :)

Busy Casual

Today I was on the go, so I went for a comfy business casual look. I got this jean vest a month ago and it's one of my faves! It's the perfect summer staple- I've been mixing it up with dresses, rompers, pants and shorts (basically everything in my closet) 

Outfit:

vest: Levi's // top: LF // pants: BCBG // shoes: Steve Madden // necklace: Ava + Aliria (vintage) // bag: Louis Vuitton // shades: Ray Ban

Spring Out

This week's outfits on Angels Weekly

top: H&M

Floral is fun and perfect for spring, and this light blouse worked great on camera, keeping that professional look without sweating my face off in 80+ heat.

top: NastyGal.com // jeans: Forever 21 // shoes: Steve Madden

My new favorite color of the season is PEACH. I love this top’s shoulder cut outs and studded collar, it gives the blouse the perfect combination of a professional yet funky flare…and it’s peach :)

top: LF // jeans: J Brand // shoes: Vince Camuto // scarf: LF // purse: Chanel // necklace: Demistache // bracelets: Energy Muse & Ama beads

Even though I'm not on camera for VO days (voice over), the booties and scarf dress up the outfit making it an appropriate & casual office look.

Life's a Beach

Outfit: top: Forever 21 (Samburu collection) // pants: Carmar (LF) // jacket: Millau (LF) // shoes: VANS // ring: Forever 21 // bracelets: Ama beads & forever 21

When dressing for different shows, I always think of the audience. Fox is a little more traditional, so it’s like mixing a young funk with a popped collar. BUT with action sports it’s back to my casual beach roots.

I love wearing colored pants, and pairing it with a jean jacket gives it a laidback feel. The tribal top keeps the outfit fun and colorful, and my classic checkered vans complete any beach outfit.

NIKE Lowers Pro

This week I took a day off from baseball and headed down to the beach to cover the Nike Lowers Pro for Inside Alli Sports. Lower Testlecs is a very popular (and always crowded) wave known for it’s 100 yard lefts and rights. However, during this competition pro surfers get a chance to ride these machine-like-waves without the crowds, so that means plenty of progressive airs.

Kidding Around

Doing the kid T tucked into a high-low skirt...with my classic vans for that extra effortless look. Wore this out to my girlfriends fundraiser Saturday afternoon :)

Fashion: Tux Out

After recently falling in love with Alexa Chung's wardrobe, I was inspired to bring some Chung into my outfit. The blazer & tuxedo blouse paired with the tattered shorts, is the perfect mellow/chic vibe for a day event.

I rocked this outfit today at Kari Feinstein's Academy Awards Style Lounge

All Dolled Up

Fashion has always been such a great way to express personal style, so I'm sharing mine with you by introducing a new segment to my blog: All Dolled Up with Vanessa Perilman.

It's always fun when my designer pal Vanessa Perilman comes over to style me. Im having a bit of an obsession these days over brooke shields amazing locks in the BLUE LAGOON. Channeling her from the movie we twisted my hair in a soft braid, and gave it a more rugged look by mixing it with a leopard high/low printed dress, a rocker chic leather jacket and some cute suede booties from Jeffrey Campbell. I love how innocent the hair looks with the cooler pieces like the leather jacket...and of course, the outfit wouldn't be complete without the CHANEL! 

Outfit: 

Leather bomber jacket: Zara 

Leopard dress: LF: http://www.lfstores.com/ 

Booties: Jeffrey Campbell Havana

Purse: CHANEL 

Double heart necklace: first gift from my boyfriend

Fashion: Date Night

I love how California always puts you in the mood to do your hair like a 1970's hippy- hence the Pocahontas braid. I'm still on a leopard trip so I figured I'd tryout my newest purchase: leopard print jeans!

Animal print is a fun and sassy finish to any date night outfit, especially Valentines night.

Outfit: black turtle neck: Nordstroms, leopard print jeans: LF Carmar, oxfords: Steve Madden, purse: CHANEL
