New on the ‘Gram

I had a much-needed, self-care/touristy day in DTL

I had a much-needed, self-care/touristy day in DTLA yesterday. Even though I’ve lived in Downtown for a couple of years now, there’s still SO much to explore!
Comment “DEETS” for links to this @sezane outfit, and SAVE this post for your next LA trip!
Some highlights of yesterday —
• I had no idea @thebroadmuseum has free admission for all, every day. Just reserve a time slot in advance. They have a couple of Yayoi Kusama exhibits available now as well!
• If you’ve been to Grand Central Market before, keep popping in. Lots of new to me vendors, but I scrambled at the chance to get an Eggslut sandwich because there was no line on a weekday!
• If you have a TAP card, you can ride Angel’s Flight Railway for only 50 cents. You can download one digitally (mine is in my Apple wallet!) & there’s no minimum balance you have to carry on it!
• Tried a new-ish natural wine bar in the Arts District that reminds me of my favorite wine bar in Paris — @lechamp_la. They have a fantastic happy hour that starts at 3:30. I can’t wait to go back; the wine list & small bites were so good!

I chatted about this on stories but…I’m trying really hard to get into the holiday spirit, but I’m struggling! I love living in LA but the lack of seasons really gets to me sometimes as a native East-coaster🙃 Anyone else feeling overwhelmed with the holidays this year?
In an effort to NOT be the grinch, I’m going to take it easy this year, and just share a few holiday things that I love the most. Like this darling dress from @jenniferlake’s latest @sailtosable collection. Can you imagine yourself walking to Christmas Eve dinner wearing this?? Best dressed for sure!!

HOW TO PLAN THE ULTIMATE WINE TASTING TRIP IN EURO

HOW TO PLAN THE ULTIMATE WINE TASTING TRIP IN EUROPE ⬇️ (Save this for your upcoming travels!)
If you’re going to go wine tasting in Europe, two regions that I think complement one another very well are the Mosel region in Germany and the region of Bordeaux in France! The elegant German Rieslings + bold Bordeaux blends balance each other out so perfectly, and it’s incredible to learn about both regions’ range of wine styles and varietals in depth!
TIPS ON HOW TO PLAN:
You can fly in/out of Frankfurt to get to the Mosel. It’s about a 2-hour drive from the airport – I’d recommend renting a car to explore the region. There are a ton of great hikes and small towns to explore when you’re not wine tasting, too!
A flight from Frankfurt to Bordeaux is inexpensive, and Lufthansa offers short and direct flight options!
Stay in the city center of Bordeaux, and go carless – it’s very walkable! Hire a driver to get you out to the wineries.
Wineries might be a little slower in the winter, but April-October is a great time to visit either region!
October has a special place in my heart because it’s harvest season.

Blog posts coming soon with more detailed info, but a big thanks to @clinkdifferent @bordeauxwines and @germanwineusa for hosting me in these beautiful regions this past fall!
