Happy Monday! I had so much fun shooting these pictures with Jessica Alexander along Abbot Kinney. There are so many amazing restaurants and shops in my new ‘hood – I can’t wait to share them all with you! I picked up this classic black shirtdress from Nordstrom a few weeks ago and have already worn it 4 different times. It’s made of a really high quality silk that doesn’t snag, doesn’t wrinkle (travel friendly!), and can be styled over and over again. I love that it doesn’t cling to you when you walk – you know how some silk dresses get all staticky and are way too sheer?! This shirtdress is tailored to perfection and drapes in all the right places. You can cinch it at the waist with a brown leather belt like I did here, or make it a bit more edgy/dressed up with a great leather jacket. You can shop my entire look below!
