blueprint


I have finally got my hands on these 3.1 Phillip Lims that I've been gazing at since Spring (and it only took a bit of a sprint towards the shoes at the sample sale).  This powder blue is a beautiful variation of my favorite color and the soft reptilian texture fascinates me. I love this d'orsay style so much, I took home the metallic silver ones as well (as seen in my last look). At sample sale prices, this was totally doable. Actually this whole outfit, including the Pashli was bought on sale! I love finding great pieces at amazing deals. The jacquard skirt from Urban Outfitters was $10 while the shirt from Madewell was about $20, both very recent. You may remember, I acquired the Pashli a few months ago during a Barney's sale for about 70% off retail.  It's always a thrill to save on such essential wardrobe additions.

A couple things: I'll be heading to NYC this weekend for a vacay trip! So excited for the city, though fearing the cold. Also Kelly Wearstler is hosting an LA sample sale at 7961 West 3rd St at Edinburgh Thurs-Sat 10am-6pm. Trust, there will be amazing designs at super discounted prices. Hope you can make it!

Happy Cyber Monday! The craziness of holiday shopping has just begun. I hope you all had a wonderful and relaxing Thanksgiving weekend. For me, it was a perfect excuse to feast to my heart's desire and eat pumpkin pie for every meal. But now that the fun and inhibition-less weekend is over, it's time to hustle and detox. I have quite a few projects for the holidays so it's no time to relax until Christmas. You know I'm a regular at making my own juices for detoxing/juicing but with the hustle of the holidays coming, I'm going to leave it to the pros at Blueprint Cleanse this time. I have been a fan of this LA-local brand for quite a while, so I'm excited to check back on what's new. 

As an awesome Cyber Monday deal, you can get Blueprint Cleanse at 20% off today and Tuesday! Use code: HONEYNSILK

Happy shopping today everyone!!

A beautiful face and an elegant approach to grunge wear.  Makes me want to hunt for some plaid right about now.

R & R


I hope you all had a wonderful night of feasting and family bonding! Now the weekend is here to relax, recharge, and recuperate. And we all know we need this. I can't wait to just sit in bed with some yummy coffee and read. News, blogs, books, editorials - everything. I feel so out of touch with the world since I haven't really had the time to do that for a while...

And of course today is Black Friday. I stayed up plenty last night in the comfort of my own bed browsing all my online spots and trying to get a deal on some Alexander Wangs or Phillip Lims. While there were great deals, I didn't end up finding something I really wanted :( Did you end up getting any thing amazing?

On a side note, LAST NIGHT is having a bright friday sale with 30% off all dresses until the end of cyber monday! Enter code "BESTDRESSED30" at checkout.

wine and taupe


I've legitimately embraced Fall with the inclusion of oxblood in my wardrobe. It's interesting to see how it-colors explode season over season - it's all about the reinvention of the wheel aka reinventing burgundy/wine to oxblood. Oxblood sounds so much cooler, doesn't it?  Anyway, this past weekend I  finally brushed the dust off my winter storage box and pulled out those thick knits and sweaters and pants. It was nice pretend-shopping forgotten clothes; I immediately took out this old Theory sweater that will for sure be a revolving piece in my daily outfits. Now it's time during Thanksgiving to pack away the summer stuff, which I find kind of sad, but until next season. 

Also just wanted to say a quick thank you to you all for continuously reading my blog and supporting honey & silk! Just recently hit over 1,000 followers on GFC - thank you, thank you! Wouldn't be anywhere without ya. Have an amazing holiday everyone!!

Can I please have Karlie's life? These majestic landscapes are just awe-inspiring. 
Bucket list addition: recreate the photo of her cradling the tree.
