Stylish yet simple, easygoing with a bit of urban edge, and beachy paired with nighttime sleek, our weekend style is classic California boho chic. A guide to packing a few essentials for a laid back, sunny weekend in Los Angeles.
We’re prepared for slow days spent in cafes and shops along Abbott Kinney, an afternoon picnic on Venice Beach, and a dinner out with friends in Culver City. We’re agenda-less, cruising by the seat of our pants in typical California mode. Fueled by black coffee, oysters and frites, and cold beers, we’d be up for a little day drinking on the beach until the sun slowly sets, golden hour feels kick in, and the sky matches our mood in dreamy pastels over the sea.
