She darted from vista to vision
With her collection of hats
Others got lost in the hob nobbing shoulders
Through the shuffle, she was found
She saw the world through her own
Rosé fueled glasses

Inspiration is vital. Here are some images that currently inspire me.
When it comes to collaboration, I am quite particular. When a brand comes my way I think through a myriad of things before sharing it with all of you (I am very protective of this beautiful community!):
I don’t move forward unless the answer to all of the questions is an unequivocal, “YES!”
When I had the opportunity to collaborate for a shoot with Parker Clay (all shot by the disarmingly talented photographer Carly Mask… follow her on Instagram for mega daily inspiration), I did my due diligence (reminder for those who don’t know… I’m an Active Member of the California Bar… laymen’s terms: that makes me a lawyer).
Being a Santa Barbara native, I already knew that Santa Barbara based Parker Clay carried absolutely stunning handcrafted pieces for both men + women. That answered question number 1… but I still needed to make sure they were a fit for criteria 2 through 4…
As I learned more about the story behind the company (+ after talking with one of the founders), I was moved beyond belief. Normally, I like to tell the story in my own words… but their story is so powerful… I’ll let them tell it in their own words:
Days of isolation in the countryside
Filled with more inspiration than togetherness
The bite of the champagne
Gives the books new meaning
Lonely enchantment is broken
By the sound of tires on the gravel drive

Most of you are aware… but for those of you who aren’t regulars on this site… I am a skincare addict.
I have tons of tips, tricks, + favorite products… but the FIRST STEP in my routine (and the step that I swear by for a steady glow) is this device.
I have had early access to the device for months now… finally it’s not just exclusive to influencers + insiders.
Drumroll please… it became available to the public TODAY!
I always want you to have current information on the technology available to you (especially natural technology that doesn’t involve injections or fillers).
This is as current as you can get.
I use this rad device.
