If you are not new to LA Vie du Papillon you are probably aware by now of my love of the timeless beret. After wide and floppy hats, they are definitely my next favorite to play with given their casual and quirky look. Their “je ne sais quoi” factor adds this subtle whimsical feminine touch to outfits that are otherwise clean and structured…

Sometimes a picture has so much more to say than words in evoking certain emotions. This is exactly the type of feeling I experience looking at the colorful creation called “Dance of the Butterflies” by Marisabel Bazan located in the heart of West Hollywood in LA…

My fascination with metallics and metallic finishes doesn’t really have seasonal limitations. I think if styled right, gold or silver can elevate and glam up a casual and simple summer look or add structure and fancier detail to a romantic and airy spring outfit…

One of my favorite layering pieces in cooler weather has always been a turtleneck. It perfectly works under jacket, as a sleeved basic shell with a lighter top or vest paired with a trousers or skirt. It is mostly utilized due to its sleek exterior and of course, for comfort…

Fall is not only one of my favorite seasons of the year due to nature’s colorful palette but also this seasonal transition in fashion always keeps me anticipating something exciting and rich.

Back to Paris we go today with another story shot at the Petit Palais with Hana during my last visit.
Gucci has a long standing history of reinventing flora and fauna motives in the house’s prints and designs. That’s why there is no surprise that Alessandro Michele is exploring the history, but of course through his own eyes…

The best part of the beginning of the new season in my opinion is flexible, transitional dressing. You can start exploring next season’s options without parting with some of your favorites from earlier in the year.

Today I am taking you back with me to Paris and the iconic Palais-Royal. This is one of the places that is a must stop for me whenever in Paris. Clean and pristine lines are always soothing and pleasant to the eye and the garden attached to it is a perfect place to recharge with your coffee or just spend some time in the company of a great book…

Today I think I am ready to say that I am sharing with you the last summer look for this year. Although, I am based in LA, and glimpses of summer do get encapsulated randomly throughout the fall and winter seasons in Southern California…
