"High Low Vintage"

Recently while in Pasadena, I discovered High Low Vintage: an adorable brick and mortar store on Green Street that had THAT exactly; High and Low Vintage. Anyone that knows me, knows that is my cup of tea. I always mix High and Low with vintage, thrifting, and designer new items which I think truly makes a perfectly cohesive outfit. This store had something to choose from for everyone. The owner is so helpful and will work with you while keeping your favorite vintage style decade in mind and will style your outfit personally while accessorizing and finishing off every touch. Here were a few of my favorites...

'A Golden Girl"

This Blog post is Dedicated on Mother's Day to my Grandmother Dodi. I have never done a feature truly on anyone else showcasing fashion other than myself. Thinking its time to change that, the best person I would think to break that ice is Grandma Dodi. I have always been so in awe of her clothing since I was younger. Mother's Day is special to me for her because Grandma Dodi herself has no children, but is a mother and grandmother 100% she is my Step-Grandmother and was married to my Grandma Ben who passed away in 1999. She was always another Grandmother to us and we are so blessed that she was and is in our lives forever. Her style floors me. From the St John Knits to the vintage beaded caftans and the jewelry from around the world a plenty. Dodi has been a rookie traveler all her life and her style emulates that. Dodi grew up in Los Angeles,CA and has been in show business since the age of 5! Her confidence is something every woman should strive to have. We love her.

"AP Fashion Show 2015"

I was asked to produce/direct/style my old High School's annual fashion show this year again. I went to a very small, unique and beautiful private high school just outside of Pasadena, Ca: Arroyo Pacific Academy. I have thrown many fashion shows in my life and anyone that electively directs fashion shows is pretty much a lunatic, because they know the stress, anxiety, and work that goes into it. Yet, when My Alumn asked me if I would do this, I literally jumped to say yes... There isn't anything I wouldn't do for this school. Arroyo Pacific was introduced to me at age 15 when I was a sophomore at another larger private high school in Pasadena. I was bullied at that school and am not using that word flippantly. My anxiety got so bad at the previous school that I just stubbornly chose to stop going. My parents seemed helpless and wanted to caringly make it better; yet being firm they said "well you have to still go to school" "it's the law." From many nights of research and word of mouth, my mom heard of a small private school called Arroyo Pacific Academy in Arcadia, CA started by an angel on earth named Phillip Clarke. When I first joined the school my sophomore class had approximately 7 students. I flourished in an environment like this being born an artist. I felt less attacked and more with a team. The teachers brought forth the confidence in myself I never knew I had all along. I won't make this a novel about the undying graditude I owe for the rest of my life to this school, but seeing these students 12 years later that are currently attending the school and wanted to participate in the fashion show warmed my heart. There is no ego, no BS, everyone is welcome which is how life and society should be. I would be honored to have a child someday be like any of these students I worked with over the past month, and I know each of them are going to be extremely successful. the quote on the website of the school says it all in the philosophy section: Recognizing the value and uniqueness of each student as a person with artistic, emotional, imaginative, intellectual, physical, religious, and social potential, the teacher endeavors to lead the students to seek the fullest development of their talents concentrating on intellectual and academic potential. The theme for this years fashion show was an elegant affair, where we focused on the Spring Season and Prom Attire. These kids are so artistic and receptive so I pulled from some great designers, mixed and matched with their own formal wardrobe, and bought some vintage.
