2015 OSCAR ROUND UP

Award season has come to an end. I have been posting my favorite looks after most of the award shows this season, and I wanted to share my Oscar favorites! I like to post about it because I love seeing the red carpet fashion from all the A-listers at the big award shows. Also, a lot of my followers don’t know this, but aside from travel & food blogging, I am a field producer for E! Fashion Police. I’ve been working on the show for over four years now, so  I’m programmed to be excited about all the fashion because it’s been my life for the past couple years. However, I truly do get excited and love seeing the big fashion moments on the carpet. My top two favorites last night at the Oscars were Rosemund Pike in Givenchy, and Zoe Saldana in Atelier Versace. How insane does Zoe look after having twins just a couple months ago?! She killed it. Two of my honorable mentions are Reese Witherspoon in Tom Ford and Gwyneth Paltrow …

CARBONE, NYC

I went to Carbone for dinner after the NBA All Star game in New York this past Sunday. My sister who lives in New York, made a reservation for Carbone a month in advance. It’s not easy to get in. I was sitting court side at the All Star Game and had to leave at half time and give up my court side seat to make it in time for our 10:15pm reservation! You might think I’m crazy to give up my court side seat, but if you know me, you know how I take food very seriously so I wasn’t going to let this reservation go to waste. During halftime, I FINALLY had the chance to meet Jay Z (which I’ve been waiting my whole life for), so I was coming off a high. I felt like my life was complete, so it made leaving the game a little easier (ha). Before talking about the food, I have to mention that our table was a foot away from Nas at Carbone. We chatted through out dinner and …

WHAT I WORE…GQ NBA ALL STAR PARTY, NYC

Hey guys! Just returned from New York Fashion Week. It was painfully cold so I’m happy to be back in sunny Los Angeles. I was so busy field producing for E! Fashion Police, so I didn’t get to take many #OOTD pictures around the city unfortunately. I did want to share my outfit this past Saturday night at the GQ NBA All-Star party hosted by Lebron James. It was a dope party- The Roots, Rae Kwon & Nas all performed and the crowd was great.  I did my own makeup and wore an H&M dress with Max Mara fur and Manolo Blank thigh high boots. What do you think of my look?

LONDON TOWN|CORINTHIA HOTEL

London during the Holidays is amazing. The city is filled with beautiful lights and festive decorations, christmas markets, and the streets are buzzing with holiday shoppers and beautiful store fronts. It felt very similar to New York during the Holidays, but with a bit more charm and architecturally more aesthetic. I spent a couple days there, but my outings were mostly at night hosting events and parties. We did take a London City tour one day which took us to all the famous London sights like Buckingham Palace, The London Bridge, St. Paul’s Cathedral, Big Ben, Tower of London, The London Eye & The National Gallery. We visited BBC Radio headquarters as well as the Tim Westwood radio station which was an experience. I had to make a stop at the famous Harrod’s to do a little shopping as well. I stayed at the Corinthia Hotel which I highly recommend. The hotel is exquisite, and the spa (ESPA Life), is exceptional. This was my 2nd visit to London, and I will be back soon!
