A friend gently pointed out that I still had a pic in a Santa hat in the top row of my feed. 😂 so, here’s a fresh little moment of me from this weekend at the @cw_crazyxgf live taping, me working a step and repeat the only way I know how, and celebrating my brilliant friend @gabrielleruiz! So proud of her incredible 4 years on this magical show, and soooo happy she will finally have time to hang out with me again.

There is nothing more incredible than dreaming with your friends... and then watching those dreams become real life!!
My sis Sydney is one of the most genuine, talented, and beautiful people I have ever known, and I am so beyond thrilled the world is getting the privilege to know her now, as she stars in this new @syfy show with @adriangrenier! (That guy from that one Melissa Joan Hart Movie 😂, oh and some random show called Entourage.)
@sydmo7 I’ve never been more happy to watch someone do what they were born to do! 🥰 #friendpride

Am I doing any good?
Honestly? Sometimes when I wonder where I’m actually supporting, helping or encouraging others, where my life and my existence has any real good attached to it. I know we can all feel this way sometimes, and it’s a good chance for us to honestly examine our lives, and to find room to not do more, but to do good; good that truly lasts.
That’s why I was so thrilled to attend the @BareMinerals event yesterday with my girl @rhodesreed hosted by the ever stunning @rosiehw to launch the #GoodThatLasts charity fundraiser.
So today, I’m posting with that hashtag, which for every post BareMinerals will donate $10 to women’s charities that give mentorship & support entrepreneurialism!
And along with all of this, I got to rock their new #cleanbeauty long wearing lipstick, have this adorable sketch of me (wearing the hibiscus shade 🌺), and spend qt with one of my favorite humans. Thank you @tractenbergandco for including us.
Now everyone go post using the hashtag #goodthatlasts so we can support women everywhere!

Did you know that our precious pups have twice as many CB receptors as us? We started giving Penny CBD consistently last month from our amazing friends at @cbddoghealth and truly it has been a gift for this gracefully aging pup! She walks and plays like a puppy, and snuggles like a champ!
As we #roadtrip up to Seattle for Christmas, we stopped for sunset at #pfeifferbeach and took the moment to give our old lady @pennylanethepup her dose of #cbd for the day... and snapped a few pics while we were at it!

When @ladyluckgroup asked if could help create their holiday album cover, I lept at the chance! These joyful women (with powerhouse voices) are such a gift to work with, and there was no better way to kick off the holiday season early!

Swipe to see the final album cover, back and CD, along with some alternate cover options!

Remember when I was a REDHEAD?! 🥰 #tbt
It’s time for a new hair situation for me, and I’m taking your vote? What should I do next?
Strawberry Blonde? Peach? Platinum? Brown?

Okay, so it doesn’t really snow in LA ❄️ but a girl can still dream of a White Christmas, right?!
I’ll be in Seattle for the holiday, and really hope I wake up to a blanket of perfect white. Where are you spending your holiday?

When people ask my favorite color: SUNSET 🌅
I know that’s technically not a single color, but that’s exactly why I pick it... because it’s the colors working together, blending, changing, fusing, reaching a saturation that feels like it can’t exist anywhere else in nature. Plus I can never pick favorites, so I get to cheat a little bit 😉 And sunsets will never stop being my most prominent inspiration.

“True success is achieved by stretching oneself, learning to feel comfortable being uncomfortable.”
I start every morning with stretching. I roll out, use a theraball, and fold myself like an origami bird.
It’s both good for my body and a great reminder for my day... to be pliable, flexible, and to handle the stress each day with a bend and not a break.

Life is FULL of set backs.
When i find myself under the weight of these setbacks, it’s easy to feel like so much time was wasted; I feel foolish, and I get stuck in a loop, wondering what’s the point in trying.
.
The story behind this image is the embodiment of that. I loved this shoot and the team and the final product, but hit set back after set back after set back.
But this time I’m not letting another set back stop me. I’m sharing the work here and pressing on to the next.

This photo is already a few weeks old, but since my @carolynne_may is still in France for a few more days, and I miss being a total idiot with her, I decided this was appropriate for the day.

FALL LIPS 💋
Since weather doesn’t change that much from summer to fall in LA, I’m giving you the season change on my lips!
All summer it’s lighter colors, glosses and balms. Fall rolls around, and while it’s still 80 degrees here, I’m giving you a velvet red matte lip color from @Velvet59 in Gigi.
#protip - apply the color in the center and blend out to edges, then take a q-tip and blur the edges of your lip line to give you a softer, all day any day look. Red lips don’t have to be too serious!

There’s nothing I love more than creating with my friends. And shooting with my girl @morganajames for her new album in Malibu was life. We shot her, makeup free, in the early morning golden light on El Matador Beach. Of the hundreds of incredible images we captured, these are the 4 that makeup her album art.
.
She did a top to bottom recreation of the Beatles White Album with her genius husband/music-director/multi-instrumentalist @dougwamble that is seriously inspired.
Do yourself a favor and go download it now.
(I made it easy for you, you can go swipe up in my stories to hear it now!)
