California Dreaming

By Jen Pinkston

Casual chic

I have become such a California girl when it comes to cold weather.  There is definitely an argument to be made for experiencing all four seasons, but I don’t hate that I laid out in my backyard in a swimsuit on Sunday in the 85 degree weather.  That’s not the only thing I love about LA…

I love that you can surf and ski in the same day.  I love fish tacos in Malibu and scouting for flea market treasures in Pasadena.  I love that we rarely ever go somewhere without bumping into a familiar face.  I love that we are just a short three hour flight from my family in Austin, although most days I wish they were much closer…

I love laid back, effortless California style.  I love denim everything.  Authentic denim.  I love this jean jacket and that my sweater has a sun bather on it.  I love discovering new bright walls and unfamiliar buildings while we are out scouting and shooting.  I love that there is always a new restaurant or shop or bar popping up to try.  I love that we are just a jaunt away from Palm Springs, San Diego, and San Francisco.

I love that it’s still January and this year has just begun, still so full of possibility.
