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

In Memory of Whitney Houston


In memory of the beloved Whitney Houston, we played your albums all through the night and still haven't turned them off. Your voice was a blessing, a true gift from god that lifted our spirits when we needed it most. You made us want to "dance with somebody". Thank you for sharing such a spiritual voice with the world, we will miss you. 

LOVE, Alex Curry & Vanessa Perilman

"Crack is wack"- The greatest interview of all time.

Diane Sawyer Interview


Grammy Weekend


Thursday night my sister Megan and I were guests at Will.i.am's I.am.Angel Grammy fundraiser at the Hollywood Palladium. The dance floor was turned into a high end VIP lounge filled with white couches, Wolf Gang Puck appetizers and champaign. 


Favorite part of the evening- STEVIE WONDER's performance!!! 


Dancing front row covered in chills- an experience I will remember forever.


The other performances: Taboo of the Black Eyed Peas, Coco Lee, K'naan, Ne-Yo and Alicia Keys.


Friday night: legendary African Jazz musician Hugh Masekela at UCLA.



Saturday: Another music legend was lost, when Whitney Houston was found dead in her Beverly Hilton hotel room.

Dancing Green Yogi's

Tonight was by far the coolest yoga class I've ever taken in my life. Julie Rader taught the 6pm yogi's to a live drum show. It created an energy in the room that flowed magically with every move...and the last 7 minutes of class everyone folded their mats and danced around the room. It was a full free spirit/ Coachella dance moment. 




Every January The Green Yogi does a 30 day yoga challenge where one must complete 20 yoga classes in 30 days. Today was the last day of the challenge and the live drum class was a celebratory treat! 



The Green Yogi is an eco-friendly boutique studio that offers daily vinyasa flow classes.

Stay Protected with Somerville's Sunscreen


Hello beauties- I mentioned last month how important it is to get your skin checked, but it's just as important to stay protected. A must have product is celebrity esthetician Kate Somerville's  SPF 55 Serum Sunscreen.

This clear & oil free formula is quick absorbing- sinking in within seconds without leaving a greasy feel or that scary white cast all over your face. Since this serum is basically invisible within seconds after applying, it works GREAT under your daily foundation, concealer or powder.

Kate’s Sunscreen utilizes a patented SPF boosting technology to provide high-level protection against UVA & UVB rays.

You can find Kate Somerville’s Serum Sunscreen at Sephora for $45 a bottle. I know this is a bit pricey, but protecting your skin is what your should be splurging on!

Try it out, and let me know what you think :)
