Seven Henrietta Street

I just discovered this short film made for Kate Spade a couple years ago & felt the need to share. It is simply irresistible :)

this is the story of a charming girl
she laughs out loud, sings off key and believes in taking chances
she is quick and curious and playful and strong
she lets her imagination run away with her
she has never been one to stick to convention
she is fond of daydreams that take her places
she can order a cocktail in six different languages
she feels that understated is overrated

A film by Kinga Burza for Kate Spade New York

SPF

I’m excited to present a little video I did with Bona Clara (remember my review of their skin care line here?) I got to show off one of my favorite products of theirs– the SPF moisturizer. I’m no vlogger so go easy on me! :)

The SPF 29 sunscreen + moisturizer runs at $40 and is worth every penny– I am SO thrilled to not have to worry about greasy sunscreen all over my face this summer! Click here to shop the SPF that’s right for your age.

Mario Testino

From Kate Moss to Kate Middleton, this fashion photographer has captured quite the array of celebrities. His two exhibits, Mario Testino: British Royal Portraits and Mario Testino: In Your Face, are currently gracing the gallery walls of Boston’s Museum of Fine Arts, and frankly, I can’t figure out what took me so long to get there. You all know I love a good royal family portrait, and the provocative In Your Face was nothing short of amazing. Emma Watson, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Gisele? Come on now, it was almost too good to be true.

Kayla attended last month’s premiere and rubbed elbows with quite a few faces you may recognize, including Anna Wintour, Giselle, and a certain Mr. Testino himself. Check out the interview for a glimpse of this glamour before you make your way to the exhibit…

The British Royal Portraits will be on display until June 16, 2013, but the fashion photography will be there only until February 3rd. If you’re close enough, run– don’t walk– to the MFA. And as if you need extra motivation, it’s free Wednesday nights after 4 pm :)

Nearly Naked Run

Bet that caught your attention, huh?

Quick post today kids– want to bring your attention to a super fun fashion-for-a-cause event, and if you’re in Boston listen up!

Wiggio.com is bringing two Nearly Naked Runs to Beantown, specifically Emerson College and Boston University. It’s designed to “undress, de-stress, and do good!” How do you participate? Bring any clothes you’d like to donate to the campuses, and then participate in a mile-long fun run around the Boston Common and Esplanade, respectively. The clothes will then all be donated to the Big Brother / Big Sister program of Boston.

Runs are Wednesday, April 25 at Emerson and Thursday, May 3 at BU. Check out those links to the Facebook events for more info!

And if this trailer doesn’t get you excited, I don’t know what will!

post script. You don’t have to be a student– so no excuses!

A Bicoastal Dance Party

I don’t vlog. So this is the closest you’re gonna get to seeing me in action kids.

No but seriously, I might be bias but I do believe one watch of this video will make your day brighter. My friend is a professional editor and I have a little part in her beautiful remake of Call Me Maybe :) And when it goes viral you can say you saw it here first!

Side note: My best friends and I are divided between Boston, New York, and Los Angeles. This is the closest we’ve come come to being in the same place since graduation!

LC Lauren Conrad | Kohl’s

I adore Paper Crown, but since that’s a little out of my everyday price range, I am loving that Lauren Conrad now has a line for [blast from my past] Kohl’s.

I’m pretty sure the price point is a bit higher than what I remember paying for Mudd (!) and other Kohl’s brands back in the day, but still not bad at all. Check out some of my favorites from her fall collection, think I’ll be taking a trip to the suburb strip mall soon for a few of these…
