Things I Love Thursday: A Love-O-Rama!

I couldn’t resist posting this Parisian sneak peek from ultra-talented photographer Shell De Mar — who, you may recall, also shot yesterday’s Blogcademy pictures!
Paris was so wonderful, indulgent & luxurious: everything you’d hope for in a European adventure! I’ve been thinking about it — & the best quiche I’ve ever eaten in my life! — every day since we left.
But do you want to know a secret? As much as I love Paris, there’s no place I’d rather be than NYC. Sure, it’s cold, & sure, it’s snowing, but it’s still wonderful.
I went on a hot chocolate adventure earlier this week, & standing on Fifth Avenue, was struck by the intense beauty of the city. NYC is such a magical place, & I love it as much today as I did when I first visited 7 years ago. It makes my heart go pitter-patter every day.

As you may have guessed from the photo above, last night I went to the Juicy Couture event & had way too much fun playing in The Bosco Booth with Nicolette & Jordan, catching up with long-lost Kiwi Isaac & petting Keiko’s super-soft faux-fur coat!
Juicy Couture were celebrating the release of their Bad Reputation film (which is so cute!), as well as offering a preview of their new collection. There were some rad pieces, including irridescent jeans (!!!), fabulous flippy pink dresses & a leopard-print tracksuit which you can see in the video, & which I have already decided would be my everyday uniform if I lived in Los Angeles!
I was doing my best French girl impression in a Nasty Gal hat, a striped top from H&M (purchased in Las Vegas last February) & a blue leather metallic pleated skirt from TopShop. (I bought it a while ago, so it’s not available anymore, but this skirt is similar!) I was also rocking MAKE UP FOR EVER Rouge Artist Intense lipstick in 33. New favourite!
