style: jetsetting (or just looking like you do)

September 2nd, 2010 · 11 Comments · Print

I took these photos at our hotel in Los Angeles this week, and I just love how they turned out. The hotel had this very chic, very serene rooftop pool that seemed perfect for this flowy sea-colored dress. Not to mention my new Rebecca Minkoff bag that I mentioned in the last post!

I know, I know. All you guys want to hear about is the Emmy Awards. But we’re still in California where my internet access is somewhat limited, and I can’t edit the video I took until I’m back home! So next week, I promise, it’s coming.

What I think was particularly funny about this hotel pool, though, is that I thought that I’d revisit it as I was shooting a video introduction for my Emmys post, and when I went back the following afternoon, the entire pool was *packed* with screaming, splashing children. Now, I love kids — but let’s just say it had lost some of its chic, serene appeal.

So I’m happy I snapped these pictures when I did, because to me, they do have a very jet-set feel. And I shot some cute photos on the actual beach during the second half of our trip, so look for a little bit of California in my very NYC-centric blog over the next few weeks.

Gypsy dress, gifted Rebecca Minkoff MAC clutch, Prada sandals, Robert Lee Morris ring, Ann Taylor necklace and bracelet.

So I think you look kind of weird and contorted on that chair. It almost looks like your back is refracting?
I like the cooking part of your site but this is pure consumerist vanity!
