My LA trips are such a retreat.  As Lisa would say: Yoga, hiking, and eating at all the hip vegan places!  Pictured: Studio City shopping, my personal motto, coffee with my filmmaker friend Alison Mason, Lisa and Kelly Carlin (yes, THAT Carlin), my favorite green drink, and beautiful LA sky.  My LA trips are such a retreat.  As Lisa would say: Yoga, hiking, and eating at all the hip vegan places!  Pictured: Studio City shopping, my personal motto, coffee with my filmmaker friend Alison Mason, Lisa and Kelly Carlin (yes, THAT Carlin), my favorite green drink, and beautiful LA sky.  My LA trips are such a retreat.  As Lisa would say: Yoga, hiking, and eating at all the hip vegan places!  Pictured: Studio City shopping, my personal motto, coffee with my filmmaker friend Alison Mason, Lisa and Kelly Carlin (yes, THAT Carlin), my favorite green drink, and beautiful LA sky.  My LA trips are such a retreat.  As Lisa would say: Yoga, hiking, and eating at all the hip vegan places!  Pictured: Studio City shopping, my personal motto, coffee with my filmmaker friend Alison Mason, Lisa and Kelly Carlin (yes, THAT Carlin), my favorite green drink, and beautiful LA sky.  My LA trips are such a retreat.  As Lisa would say: Yoga, hiking, and eating at all the hip vegan places!  Pictured: Studio City shopping, my personal motto, coffee with my filmmaker friend Alison Mason, Lisa and Kelly Carlin (yes, THAT Carlin), my favorite green drink, and beautiful LA sky.  My LA trips are such a retreat.  As Lisa would say: Yoga, hiking, and eating at all the hip vegan places!  Pictured: Studio City shopping, my personal motto, coffee with my filmmaker friend Alison Mason, Lisa and Kelly Carlin (yes, THAT Carlin), my favorite green drink, and beautiful LA sky.

Reflections from Louisville’s Waterfront Fashion Week 2012 - Any inaugural event has a learning curve.  Lessons to be learned:  $125 VIP tickets should include at least one drink, and another flooring option is needed in the tents other than the snap together hexagons with stiletto swallowing cracks.  Otherwise, Mare and I had a great time mingling with friends, people watching, and style spotting.  Above, photo op in the lounge, showing our disinterested fashion show look a la Mary Kate and Ashley, a great look spotted on Miranda of thechicsheet.net, and one of the fierce models in the shows.  See you next year at a bigger and better Waterfront Fashion Week 2013.
