PrettyLittleThing x Olivia Culpo
StyleCommentHi lovelies,
During the decadent and a who's who of Young Hollywood party debuting the latest fashion collaboration with PrettyLittleThing x Olivia Culpo, I fell in love with the romantic collection.
Olivia is a beautiful and talented actress, model, television presenter, cellist, and Miss USA, and her fashion collection did not disappoint. Ever since being introduced to her collection, I've been wearing the pieces from photoshoots, to dates, to red carpets.
The collection is heavy on the lace, is form-fitting in all of the right places, and primarily uses the color palette of black, white, and red. See below for why PrettyLittleThing x Olivia Culpo is the must-have fashion collection for Fall.

Battle of the Sexes x L.A. Premiere
EntertainmentComment
Hi lovelies,
Last night I got to attend the star-studded L.A. premiere of Battle of the Sexes. Emma Stone looked flawless in platinum blonde hair and a sparkling silver outfit, while Steve Carell looked distinguished in his dark suit.
Emma's performance as tennis legend, equal rights pioneer, and LGBQT advocate, Billie Jean King, was uncanny and you forget that you're watching Emma and you really feel as though you're watching Billie Jean in the 1970's.
Beyond the way she speaks and looks, Emma nails Billie Jean's signature walk and it was impressive how precise her tennis move were to mimic the legend's expertise.
Steve's portrayal of Bobby Riggs showed the troubled gambler's life in a compassionate way. Revealing that he was more of a lost soul looking for meaning than a rambling bigot. Elizabeth Shue also gave a riveting performance as his patient yet fed-up wife.
Sarah Silverman gave a compelling performance and she made us laugh throughout the entire film with her endearing portrayal of Gladys Heldman.
But what really stole the show was the powerful speech that the real Billie Jean King gave prior to the movie. She told us about her journey and how she paved the way for women's professional tennis to exist today.
Billie Jean King is also inspiring us through her partnership with Citizen Watches. Both represent excellence, innovation, and ingenuity. You can get the full details on their perfect partnership below.
"CITIZEN, a pioneer in watchmaking and innovative technology since 1918, promotes excellence and creativity with a deep-rooted respect for craftsmanship. CITIZEN advocates “Better Starts Now,” searching for and accomplishing goals that better our lives. In this respect, CITIZEN aligns with organizations and personalities that reflect the values of the brand including the Billie Jean King Leadership Initiative, Citizen Naismith College Basketball Awards and National Merit Scholarship.
As a “citizen of the world” we bear the responsibility to help cultivate positive change and on-going evolution to our craft. For over 40 years, CITIZEN’s Eco-Drive technology has served as the prime example of how the brand is dedicated to making the world and its environment a better place.
A simple yet revolutionary concept, Eco-Drive harnesses the power of light from any natural or artificial light source and converts it into energy. Using a renewable natural resource instead of filling our landfills with discarded watch batteries.
Our name speaks to our belief of inclusion with a multi-cultural mindset to create timepiece that can be enjoyed by citizens all over the world."
Our fight for equal rights and equal pay continues to this day, but Battle of the Sexes is a must-see to inspire us to keep fighting the good fight, with love.

CAA x Blackpills x Super High
EntertainmentCommentHi lovelies,
The other night I had the pleasure of attending CAA's L.A. premiere of the Blackpills series Super High. Blackpills is a digital media company that is a pioneer in short scripted content.
The digital series is written and directed by Edouard Pluvieux and Kev Adams, who also stars along with YouTube star DeStorm Power and model Sarah McDaniel.
The premise of the breakout show is that this misfit team is able to fight crime after receiving super powers from magical weed. Although it might sound a bit far-fetched, the show is refreshingly funny and action-packed.
You can watch all 10 episodes of the first season starting on September 25 on Blackpills.

Hi lovelies,
The very first design that I ever created for 1214 by candy washington, was my “Coffee Made Me Do It” sweatshirt and I'm still obsessed with it.
I wanted to share with you guys my top three things that I love the most about coffee.
#1: My Favorite Coffee Drink
My go-to coffee order is an iced Americano, which is water, ice, and espresso. I love adding in a flavor shot as well, usually Vanilla, Hazelnut, or Caramel.

I love hitting up my local coffee shops to write and relax. I also love meeting my friends there to have massive catch up sessions. Currently, my favorite spot is Carrera Cafe on Melrose Avenue.
