How the Other Half Lives: Los Angeles

At the height of the heat wave raking havoc on patio parties and electric bills across the East Coast, it’s time those of us stuck on the scorching island of Manhattan considered other options. Whoever said that it’s not the heat that will kill you, but the humidity, was 1000% correct. I think it’s safe to say that global warming has many a New York-based Aspiring Socialite desperate for a Hamptons house with a pool and/or a bicoastal lifestyle. Though I’ve never been, I hear it’s always 72 degrees and sunny 3000 miles away in La La Land AKA Los Angeles. Weather and real estate is where L.A. socialites have us New Yorkers beat. Though this heat wave is coming to a close and temperatures are predicted to be comfortably in the 80’s, I’m far from letting go of my dream of someday partying high in the Hollywood Hills and shopping on Rodeo Drive.

I love my L.A. counterparts! Photos compliments of the lovely Alexandra DiNovi, Hollywood actress, L.A. socialite, and one of my best Twitter pals who I hope to party with in person soon. Check out her IMDb page.

I Will Be Wearing Lauren Conrad’s Paper Crown Clothing Line

Described as a collection for those who like to play dress up in the grown up world, Lauren Conrad’s new clothing line known as Paper Crown, is my newest obsession.  I’m pretty sure I’m the only Aspiring Socialite type person who didn’t like The Hills, but I love Lauren Conrad and her new fashion line.  LC is a classy party girl.  Therefore, Paper Crown is the perfect collection for fashionistas who aspire to live and party like the stylish beauty who never got the apology she deserved from Heidi or Spencer.  But, that doesn’t seem to be keeping the lovely Miss Conrad down as she builds her fashion empire.

Though Paper Crown is mostly designed around days and nights on the town, it also has a whimsical feel to it.  That adds a romantic feel to the classic staples every woman should have in her closet such as the little black dress.  The fabrics are also both flattering and forgiving.  So if you choose to have a Mac n’ Cheese Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, the stretchy fabrics will still fit to your body perfectly.  Aside from being a great reality star, LC is also known for being the ultimate girly girl and it shows throughout this collection.  It’s never too early to start planning out your holiday party wardrobe.  Paper Crown has some great pieces that are sure to impress your boss, your boyfriend’s boss, or whoever at that special holiday event.  This great new line is available at Nordstrom and at select boutiques across the globe.
