greetings and happy 2018! my apologies for taking off for a little longer than usual, but at the holidays i like to extend my downtime a bit and really refuel. and that i did! i’m excited to be back and ready to share what i hope to be loads of inspiration for you this year. as you may have seen from my , i spent a bit of the holiday on L.A.’s westside, in santa monica and venice and i thought i’d start off this year’s posts with a visit to designer lovely little venice shop. you may recognize lily because she and her talented mum rachel ashwell of fame share the same last name, but is an inspiration in her own right. her quaint shop is known for modern vintage-inspired women’s and a very well-curated assortment of as you can see from my pics of the shop. i’ve shared back in 2013 and i’m excited to give you a sweet peek into her current very cozy world.
laid-back beachy hometown of Venice has been the ideal backdrop for her first brick + mortar.
