Hollywood Mr. Bone's Pumpkin Patch

                                    Halloween Pumpkin Patch Fun                                     

Here it is Halloween, one of the greatest holidays ever celebrated. All of us remember as kids Halloween meant trick or treating and candy unofficially being declared a food group. As we get older Halloween is a reason to play dress up where stripper heels are encouraged. Guys who have spent many hours in gyms dress like spartan warriors and give their abs a final Hoorah.
As Halloween draws near it is time to select a pumpkin. I truly believe it is always more fun to head over to a traditional pumpkin patch (much better then the supermarkets). Here in Hollywood the go to spot is Mr. Bones. 

My pumpkin picking outfit is of course casual. I realize I am the High Heeled Brunette, but when tromping through the hay I prefer boots. Prada combat boots are super cute and provide that tough girl persona. Hudson Jeans are the perfect blend of fit and comfort. Star Candy tank with a sequence of rhinestone skulls, look close each skull has a heart on the forehead. All topped of with a chambray shirt (need to keep it casual).

I love this place. Hay bails and a friendly ghost.

I think I like this one. Look in the background they provide a wagon for the serious pumpkin lovers.

Peter, Peter pumpkin-eater. Had a wife, and couldn't keep her. He put her in a pumpkin shell, and there he kept her very well.  I'm in a nursery rhyme.

Ok this is it a 25 pounder.

It is all mine.

It's Mr. Bones!

Just hanging with some pumpkins.

We have a Frankenstein wedding. As a shoe lover I do have to admit I am liking these sneakers.

Wow Big Birds.

A Witch's Brew.

Here is the story of Jack O' Lanterns - Centuries ago in Ireland a man named Stingy Jack had a drink with the devil. Stingy Jack did not want to pay (hence the name stingy) so he tricked the devil into changing himself into a coin. Rather than using the coin to pay for the drinks Stingy Jack put the coin in his pocket. He had a cross in the pocket which kept the devil from coming out. Stingy jack told the devil he would release him if he promised to leave him alone for a year. After a year Stingy Jack ran into the devil again and tricked him into climbing a tree. Stingy jack carved a cross into the tree and trapped the devil again. This time he made the devil promise to leave him alone and not collect his soul upon his death. When Stingy Jack passed, the devil kept his word, but heaven would not let an unsavory man like Stingy Jack in so the devil gave Jack a piece of glowing hot coal and sent him away. He put the piece of coal into a carved out turnip and used it as lantern. He was known as Jack of the Lantern.
We carve scary faces on pumpkins and light them up as Jack O' Lanterns and put them out on Halloween to scare away Stingy Jack and other spirits.

Happy Halloween!!!

Lucky Brand Distressed Denim and Plaid

A BIG TREE AND ME

I woke up this morning and realized I had a light day of work, so I decided to embrace the relaxed style of what is truly an American image. As I was putting on one of my latest finds (Lucky Brand) distressed denim jeans in blue, I thought lets really go for the classics and pair it with a plaid shirt. Luckily this shirt is a vibrant red which I love. Yes I know I am the High Heeled Brunette, but with this outfit I needed to go with a tough girl don't mess with me pair of combat boots. So they may be Marc Jacobs and the closest thing they will see to combat is a Black Friday sale, none the less they are cool.  Bracelets are must today (everyone NEEDS an arm party) and a fashion statement I am always willing to make. Today I went with a leather band, spiked crystal bracelet and simple silver stud and rhinestone bracelet.

So here it is:

 MY OUTDOORSY GIRL LOOK!!

Lucky Brand Jeans are so perfect. You can always find the jeans you want and they have enough sizes to fit everyone. I can't tell you how many times I have tried on distressed jeans and the knee holes are no where near the knees.

Love the color.  Plaid does not have to be faded or washed out. The contrast between bright plaid and worn in distressed jeans is what really makes the outfit work.

These are some of the most comfortable boots. I could march through any shopping spree with these on.

This is my Favorite tree in Beverly Hills. It is a Moreton Bay Fig Tree (which is a ficus tree since it doesn't produce any figs). It is 100 years old and is in the top three of its kind for largest in America. Thank you internet for the information. 

I feel  like a lumberjack.

Gotta watch my step.

Just taking a break under my shade tree.

This tree is huge. Love the double tears in my jeans.

As you can tell by the Escalade and Land Rover behind me my idea of outdoorsy is a city park. This is the Beverly Hills Gardens Park. I may not have seen any bears or coyotes, but there were plenty of tourists and a girl eating a sprinkles cupcake.

Hope you enjoyed reading this post as much as I had making it.

A Day in the Park

As most people know driving in Los Angeles is never an easy task. I have spent many hours sitting in traffic on Santa Monica Blvd in Beverly Hills. In heavy traffic all of us play with the radio, thumbs up or down our Pandora, people watch (in Beverly Hills always entertaining), and wishing the traffic would finally let up. I have noticed this large silver rock formation in the park many times and decided to go have some fun the other day. As you can tell  the weather was perfect. According to the calender Fall is here so I donned my newest leather jacket. Thank you to Cusp from Neiman Marcus, this leather jacket is adorned with the multiple zippers, spread collar, buckles on the cuffs, and a quilted pattern on the body. The leather is very soft and lightweight, perfect for Southern California, with a cut to die for, this is sure to be a staple in my closet. 

A plain white tee and black leather jacket is such a classic look anyone can pull it off.

Bright red jeans from Current Elliot.

Doing my best to cause a scene.

Since I am not model tall I need to watch out for choosing jeans in such a bold color, they have the ability to draw attention to the legs. This can make your legs look short. To make that attention a positive aspect a pair of your favorite high heels will make them look longer. 

 

A good leather jacket gives the casual over the shoulder look a rocker vibe perfect for hanging in the park with a huge silver rock.

Studded Prada Pumps give the edge I love to this outfit.
