MODERN SAFARI

posted by Elshane on Jun 22 2015, under Fashion

A turban and a kaftan walked into a bar...

And the rest is history. (This is no joking matter!)

Have you tried the combination yet? It's my most favorite way to explore that effortless summer chic mentality. To avoid an overly costume-y look, try a neutral kaftan like this one or the other options I share in my SHOP THE LOOK section below, and pair it with an equally neutral turban.

I added a pop of color in my handbag to complete the 'resort look'.

DEAD SEA DERBY

posted by Elshane on Jul 14 2015, under Fashion

It's hard to decipher what's cooler-- this boss camel or my boss pants. I bought these pants inside the walls of Old City Jerusalem from a Bedouin craftsman. If only you could see how low the drop crotch is on these pretty's-- they drop to my ankles! I. Kid. You. Not.

And you know me and a drop crotch. Never met one I didn't like.

This camel ride was equal parts regal and ridiculous. The truth is, we were driving up the side of the road leaving our hike up Masada and our dip in the Dead Sea, when we stumbled upon this furry gal hanging at a gas station. I paid her owner $5 for a ride around the gas station, and we shot all of our photos facing the mountain to hide the...gas pumps... that were actually in the background. 

Isn't it crazy how deceiving photos can be? 

Back to the wild pants... since these are one of a kind, I searched the internet for pants that had the most similar vibe. Shop my selects below-- promise you'll love them as much as I do!

GILDED

posted by Elshane on Dec 2 2015, under Fashion

A gold pencil skirt is something I oddly didn't have in my closet until recently. I ask myself why? I love pencil skirts, and gold is the most regal hue of the rainbow, of course.

I was pleasantly surprised to find a bevy of gilded pencil skirts over the internet to choose from. For holiday dressing, I don't think it gets chicer than this. From office to party, or in this downtown LA prance, from museum to museum, a gold pencil skirt is so.right.now.

{Oh, and it's only $26.}
