ttF Fashion Staples Series Diary: White Snake
I used to think you couldn’t wear red lips during the day. But after searching for the longest lasting lip color, I realized I like a bold pout at the office—as long as the rest of the outfit stays simple. I stuck to neutrals with a white sweater dress, my fave Forever 21 necklace, waffle knit scarf and embossed snakeskin boots and topped it off with my Laura Mercier red lip pencil. After work, I met Emily of Groomed LA for coffee at the most adorable bakery, Susina, and she was sweet enough to compliment me on my outfit. I truly think it would have boring without the bold lip color.

ttF Fashion Staples Series Diary: From Green to Gray
There was no post yesterday because I never really left my house since I was overwhelmed with my flights getting canceled. This morning, I thought I was going to have to miss the first day of shows at Fashion Week so I bought an ice cream cone to cheer up. But I have probably the most amazing mother ever and she was able to score the last seat on a red eye that leaves tonight—in two hours actually, which means bye bye sunny, green Los Angeles and hello snowy, gray New York.

ttF Fashion Staples Series Diary: Chain Reaction
Tonight I attended Traver Rains’ The Ranch LA Exhibit presented by Gaudy PR. Traver, who is the co-designer of Heatherette with Richie Rich, was debuting a new line of t-shirts and showing his impressive photography skills. One side of the room featured his Montana series of models is stunning clothing shot in his home state (Traver’s brother even handmade the remarkable wood frames.)
My outfit ended up matching the other side of the room, filled with more provocative photographs of naked cowboys and a sexed up Aubrey O’Day.

I ordered this skirt online after lusting over the brocade shown at Milan Fashion Week. It’s just short enough that I can wear it to work with tights, and then clip into more brocade and sit on a leopard shoe chair before going with my friends to Playhouse on a Friday night.

ttF Fashion Staples Series Diary: Helping Haiti
Random spot to take a photo, I know. But I had to deposit money into my checking account today so I could donate to the Art Creation Foundation for Children. An old friend of my mother’s started this charity back in 2000 to help children in Jacmel, Haiti with education and personal growth. Their building is one of the few structures still standing after the devastating earthquake so they’ve become a central aid point in Jacmel. You can donate online via their website, www.artforhaitianchildren.org or through their Facebook page. Or, send a check to Art Creation Foundation For Children, c/o Judy Hoffman, Profile Marketing Research, 4020 South 57 Ave #101, Lake Worth, Florida 33463. You’ll be touched by the updates of what the charity is doing to help during this time of crisis.
