Loeffler Randall

I was recently out in Brooklyn visiting with a girlfriend who works in fashion PR. These girls always know what’s cool and true to form she walked in the door and I obsessed over her shoes and bag. “Where are they from?” I asked, “Loeffler Randall“. Of course they are.

It seems almost every time I love a New York girlfriend’s shoes they are Loeffler Randall. I myself am a fan girl… I’ve worn them to the beach, at southern mansion cocktail parties, and over coffee in L.A. They are easy and cool. Quality and comfortable. Or, as the founder and designer Jessie Randall puts it, “understated, elegant, effortless.” I stopped by their Soho studio to see what’s new this summer, what I will be lusting after like those red strappy heels above… UGH sooo good. And to talk with the beautiful designer herself only to realize, the products are good because the soul of the designer is too…

The Traveling Camera Bag

Kevin and I have been traveling a lot lately for cinemagraph shoots and I needed a bigger, stronger camera bag for all the gear we’ve had to bring along. Usually the idea of backpacks and camera bags horrify me (which is why I usually carry this cutie) until ONA made one that functionally is perfect for my needs and is good looking! Pockets for lipstick and iPhones, soft but structured inside for cameras and lenses, and top pouch for our laptop! It’s heaven!

PS- Kevin is modeling in most of these photos as this bag is his favorite of all my camera bags. Plus he’s handsome. *blushes*
