Play Now | Toyota Tacoma

You know that feeling when something exciting happens and you want to share it with people, but you can’t?! I’ve had that feeling for three months, but now’s the time I can finally enjoy it with everyone! Back in late June/early July I was cast to be a part of the now released Toyota Tacoma campaign! First off, I was so pumped to be selected for a national spot, but when I received the details…

The Villa San Juan Capistrano | Green Wedding Shoes

Blake and I were so excited to be a part of a shoot recently with our wedding photographer friend, Brian LaBrada, and a great team he pulled together.  We shot at the Villa San Juan Capistrano, which is a magical place in itself, even before the amazing decor, florals, hair and makeup happened.  It was special for Blake and I to get to do together, as it came right at our own one year wedding…

Fair Nights | Orange County

Just like peanut butter and jelly, peas and carrots, Rocky and Bullwinkle, to name a few, summer nights and the fair is one of those classic combos. And it only happens during a small window every year, so you have to go for it when it’s available. Growing up in Utah, they have some pretty good fair offerings. Most of them are smaller, individual fairs, but they have all the necessities like fried food, farm animals and…

Behind the Brand | Nena & Co.

Sometimes I love what a brand makes, but then when I find out what’s behind that brand I fall in love a little bit more.  That’s definitely been the case over the last few years with Nena & Co.  Not only are the pieces beautiful and unique, but it’s a brand supporting an amazing cause.  They work with Guatemalan artisans to create hand-woven textiles that are used to make all of their pieces.  Recently the brand moved…

Junim L.A. | A Walk on Melrose

This hand-dyed silk maxi dress from Junim L.A.  has been on repeat this summer, and I have yet to have a bad day when I’m wearing it…I don’t think that’s a coincidence ;).  Made from the signature indio silk print that Junim is known for, designer Haley Solar implements an artisan hand dying technique.  She uses reclaimed fabrics and a mixture of traditional and natural dyes, and her colors are inspired by the sky at different…

Sunset Sits | Bohemian Bones

Sometimes life gets crazy, and all of the sudden I realize that we’ve forgotten to do little things we love.  We hadn’t seen a sunset from Corona Del Mar beach in a while, and it’s something so simple that always makes us happy.  So we hurried over there after work, watched the sun go down together, and then met one of our best friends for sushi nearby.  I couldn’t help my smile sitting there at…

Get Under

Fishing is on the rise. Big time. Anytime I jump on Instagram and get my scroll on, I’m guaranteed to run into a variety of fishing posts. For those landlocked crews, fly fishing seems to be method of choice. For those coastal crews, spearfishing. I’ve dabbled in the former, in the past, but the latter is starting to carve a solid chunk of time and interest in my life. So I decided to throw this…
