Spanx Leggings and the Uniform Lately

You guys, I’m here today with some great news for the girl team.  These Spanx leggings that I’ve worn 999 times this fall slash winter (slash who even knows what season we’re in here) are finally back in stock in all sizes (here and here), and I’m telling you, they’re the BEST.  I was so excited to find them that I scooped up a second pair, a move that may seem aggressive to some, but if you’ve tried these then you know.  Also it’s totally acceptable considering these have become a sort of uniform for me lately.  True story, I pretty much only packed these leggings plus a few pairs of workout leggings (these are my favorites) for the initial move into the rental house during our home remodel.  After a couple of weeks, I discovered that I’ve pretty much been accidentally waist-training.  Sooo, it turns out, that whole trend at least partially works.

And onto other, equally exciting news.  Southern California is on the verge of, wait for it, five whole days in a row of rain starting tomorrow.  What?!  Bananas, y’all.  And while I’m usually the ultimate rain-lover of SoCal (it’s not an official title or anything…yet), the rain tends to put a little cramp in that whole remodeling schedule.  Mother Nature takes no prisoners, y’all.  But hey, the rain is coming, and this rain-lover is gonna enjoy it regardless.

And in one more smidgelet of news, it’s that time again.  Time for what, you ask?  Time to hit up The Stylist LA for their annual sample sale.  Sweet Emily will be selling off her gently used sample dresses, and I’ll be selling off pieces from my own closet along with a couple of favorite blogger gals.  And since I went through my closet while packing up to move everything into storage, I’m getting rid of a TON.  (Me and Mother Nature, both getting serious this week.)  I’ve got clothing, shoes, and so many handbags headed to The Stylist LA tomorrow, so don’t miss out!  Details on the sale below – hope to see y’all there!

If you guys were following along on Instagram last week, you may have noticed a little Vegas vacay with three of my favorite girls (Jenn, Krystal, and Kathleen) taking over my feed.  The four of us had the not-so-difficult task of spending two days exploring the Venetian and the Palazzo, and y’all, the trip did not disappoint.  Aside from seeing Britney Spears’ “Piece of Me” show (these Southerners clearly loved it), here are a few highlights of the trip.

LOVE art installation by Laura Kimpton – 12-foot high red steel letters spelling out LOVE in the lobby of the Venetian are just begging for a little Instagram love.  Pun intended.

Canyon Ranch SpaClub – What girls’ trip would be complete without a little visit to the spa?  We each enjoyed the All-In Massage which combines hot stones, Shiatsu, reflexology, a salt scrub, and more.  It was like a mixed bag of all of my favorite massages combined into one.  We didn’t have time to stay and enjoy the other spa amenities, but they looked fab, definitely worth checking out.  Hashtag, robe life.

LAVO at the Palazzo – This is just straight up delicious Italian comfort food.  Get the giant meatball.  Or don’t.  I’m not the boss of you.  But it’s so good, and so is the gnocchi.  Hell, so is the straight up bread dipped in their marinara sauce.  This was my third time eating at LAVO, and it’s been consistently delicious every time.

Brunch at Bouchon – You can’t go to Vegas without a little brunch action, and Bouchon is in the perfect setting.  The weather in Vegas while we were there was just plain delightful, so we sat outside overlooking a beautiful garden with the sounds of a fountain in the background.  It really feels like you’re somewhere else entirely.  Our group pretty much never has a meal without fries, and if you add the word truffle to that?  We’re sold every single time.

BAZ – Star Crossed Love show – Y’all, I’m not gonna lie.  Theater and musicals have never really been my thing.  It’s true, but I totally got into this one.  BAZ combines Romeo + Juliet, Moulin Rouge, and The Great Gatsby in a way that totally makes sense and keeps you interested.  I walked out thinking, well that was really fun.  Rare for me, seriously.

SUSHISAMBA – This. Was. So. Good.  I really, really wish there was a SUSHISAMBA near us in Orange County because I’m telling you, it was one of the best sushi restaurants I’ve ever been to.  The Samba Strip roll was AMAZING, and the Peruvian Corn was addictive.  Also, Japanese A5 Wagyu Beef.  I’ll just leave that right there.

Bottle service at TAO Nightclub – I haven’t been “clubbing” since my days living in Hollywood, and I hadn’t been to TAO in a bazillion years, but going back was like a glorious blast from the past.  The DJ killed it, as Vegas DJ’s tend to do, and the all-night dance party was much needed after the SUSHISAMBA food-a-thon.

And there you have it, our two days in Vegas packed full of food, drinks, and a little exploring.  What are some of your favorite places to see, do, and eat in Las Vegas?

New Year’s Eve Style

Well, Christmas has come and gone, and I can’t believe how quickly it flew by.  I can’t really complain though because we had an amazing few days here spent with family and friends, and that’s all that really matters.  (And the food.  There’s been no shortage of holiday food around here.)  But now that Christmas is over, I’ve got my sights set on New Year’s Eve and all things sparkly.  No one does holiday sparkle better than Parker, but if the holidays have you a little short on cash, head over to The Stylist LA where you can rent your New Year’s Eve look for a fraction of the price.  It’s Netflix for dresses, and the selection is killer.  Hope everyone’s week is off to a great start!

Workday to Work Party

If the thought of wearing your workday duds to the after-hours holiday party has you standing in front of your closet shaking in your slippers, pull yourself together and consider this little ensemble that’s got some serious lasting power.  Silk trousers are a classically dressed-up choice that will be comfortable enough for all day wear, and a tapered leg means they can be paired with flats for day or an eye-catching heel for night.  Complete the look with a festive (and modest) top, an easy cream blazer and minimal jewelry.  Now, go easy on the eggnog, and try not to notice when Bill from accounting can’t stop staring.  OK, that’s from a movie or something.  Just go with it, people.
