Peppermill Casino

Guess who had their first girl's night out in yearrrrrrs!



Nothing beats PF Chang's & an evening at the Peppermill Resort Spa Casino in downtown Reno,
except if it's with a sweet new friend!

Lakme Fashion Week - Black and Gold

Black and gold seem to have an ever-lasting partnership in Indian fashion. This time, they found new grounds for their union. From classic silhouettes, to flowing forms, the color duo made its presence felt across the fashion week shows. A rare, urban sophistication has, fortunately, found its ground in this trend's renewal. Too severe by itself, black finds a softer accent in gold. And gold, left alone tends to become sheer bling, but black tones it down and adds depth.



Loving these looks from the Lakme Fashion Week Winter Festive shows.

Goo Goo Dolls



Ever have those songs you play over and over and over and over?
Well in 1998, for me it was Iris by Goo Goo Dolls. My friends and family will even vouch for that. I'm pretty sure my Mom and Step-father were so sick of me blasting it from my room on repeat.

Well I'm seeing them tonight at the Grand Sierra Resort in Reno... along with Michelle Branch and Parachute! Last minute and super stoked!





Enjoy the clips!



Lakme Fashion Week - Fall Trends - Color - Pink Passion

It has red as a parent, but it's softer, less violent. Pink is reformed red, as the designers would have you believe. Pink was a recurring theme at the Lakme Fashion Week in all its sweet and sophisticated avatars. From Archana Kochhar and Rina Dhaka, to Drashta, Vivek Kumar and Vj Balhara, the designers unleashed Pink Power in all its hues. Blush, coral, flesh, flush, fuchsia, hot pink, magenta, raspberry, rose, and salmon strutted down the ramp, displaying the versatile side of pink, from playful to glamorous.



Combined with grey, black, blue, green and beige, the pink flaunted its glory, gaining a sharp edge it's often denied. Here are some of my favorites from the Fashion Week.



What do you think of the trend?

Weekend

Well I didn't get those gorgeous vineyard shots you'd expect of me while in Napa... in fact the trip was all business. But here are some iPhone shots of my weekend anyways.

I had about 45 minutes before my mid-morning meeting, so went to Alexis Bakery Company in downtown Napa for a latte, as I glanced closely at the tablecloth I noticed the neighborhood in Paris where I 'lived' for 10 days. It took me back to my quaint Paris apartment and the view from my window, and the feeling like I've had 9 lives this year. 


I was adventurous enough for a Lake Tahoe hike on Sunday and can't wait to share those shots with you! I know where I'm getting a floating raft for next weekend... see below!
