Thursday May 18th, I headed over to one of my favorite West Hollywood kid-friendly spots…Au Fudge. Au Fudge is one of the few spots in Los Angeles that has delicious comfort food designed for a foodie and an awesome “creative space” for kids to play while mommies dine. I don’t think there is a better concept out there.
Well today was a kid-free luncheon since my little guy was at school so I was able to catch up with friends, dine on Au Fudge comfort breakfast foods, check out the latest CL by Chinese Laundry line as well as making a gorgeous flower bouquet to take home.
To kick off this fabulous Joie de Vivre luncheon, Chinese Laundry sent over one of their latest sandal silhouettes from their CL line for me to wear to the luncheon. They were so cute and surprisingly comfortable. They were the perfect update to my gladiator sandals from last year that were still perfect to wear with dresses and shorts for the summer.
You all know that I am obsessed with wedges and very thankful that they are in style right now. I also love the wedge heel and block heel for summer because as more events/parties/weddings are outside on the lawn, these chunkier heels are better for not sinking into the grass. Not only is it hard to pull your heel out of dirt, the chance of ruining your heel is high as well. These types of heels are the perfect solution to this problem. The other pro that I loved about the current CL line is that the colors are very neutral. Some people are good at having a pop of color on their feet, I prefer the more neutral shoe to make me look taller since I am more petite. This line is an easy go to for any of the latest trends without feeling like you are going to break the bank.
