Boho and Stripes

Published on by thenavyleopardLeave a comment

I love the mix of a more bohemian look with my favorite stripes.  The top and jeans are from Calypso.  They have extended their friends and family sale, so  you can get them both at 25% off until 11:59 pm eastern today, April 18th. Use code FRIENDS16 . Update the top is on sale, plus 50% off.

The top is light and breezy and I love the detail on the tie.

The sandals are on sale at J.Crew.  I did not buy them right away and then they were sold out.  I was thrilled to pick them up on sale last week. – Update they are sold out.  Here is another style that would go well with this look.FullSizeRender(33)FullSizeRender(30)

Happy Shopping!

Hair Game Changer – SHHHOWERCAP

Published on by thenavyleopard3 Comments

Until ten years ago when I moved to Los Angeles, I washed my hair every day.  I have a lot of hair and it would take me forty minutes to dry it.  A friend convinced me that every other day washing was the way to go.  It took some getting used to.  Now I wash my hair no more than three times per week and sometimes only once.  I usually get a weekly blowout and try to make it last.  I had used the old “granny” style shower caps and they did ok, but part of my hair would often be wet.    I recently discovered SHHHOWERCAP and my blowouts last so much longer.IMG_2494

I wish I had all those unnecessary blow-dry hours back!  I feel like I have so much time now.  I also use dry shampoo in between.  I will review a few dry shampoos in a future post.FullSizeRender(21)

Here’s to great hair days.

Pom-Poms

Published on by thenavyleopard1 Comment

These J.Crew color block pom-pom shoes are amazing.  I was worried that they would be uncomfortable and they are very comfy.  Sadly, they are currently sold out.  I did score them on the website after they were previously sold out, so it may be worth some website (JCREW) stalking (one of my favorite pastimes). The higher, sandal version is still available (and on sale!).    I have styled them below with pieces that are currently in stock.

Out and About – Aharon Coffee

Published on by thenavyleopard1 Comment

I recently discovered Aharon Coffee & Roasting Company in Beverly Hills.  They make their own nut milks and syrups.  I had an iced latte with almond-hazelnut milk and “nutella” syrup.  It was amazing.  It was right before I got sick and was home with the flu for two weeks.  As soon as I was better, I headed straight to Aharon.
