Easiest Outfit To Take From Day To Night






Top by Theory. Sweater brand is unknown (gift from my mom). Pants by Chaser. Sandals by BP Nordstrom. Heels by Pour La Victoire. Bag by Stuart Weitzman. 


Yesterday I knew I would be leaving work very late, yet still wanted to ring in Friday night (constant dilemma for me). Literally the easiest way to change an outfit from day to night is changing your shoes and adding an evening clutch. I also put a dark lip shade on to make it slightly more of an evening look. It took me all of two minutes to do that!

With no time wasted, we decided to check out the French restaurant Bouchon on Canon Dr. (unknowingly we got their right as they were closing). Side note, they close at 10:30PM and 9PM on Sundays. However, we were able to get away with ordering some dessert and drinks before they closed. A friend of ours, Andrew, is the Beverage Manager at Bouchon and suggested the most delicious drinks-- The Last Word (with gin) and The Wilshire (with whiskey). If you ever find yourself at this fun and fancy establishment, make sure to get his advice on any wine/cocktails you choose to order-- you will not be disappointed! The man knows his stuff! 

For dessert, we ordered the baked meringue and 7 layer chocolate cake. Both were delicious, but if you have to settle on one, opt for the chocolate cake. The meringue may be a little sweet for some palettes. 

Bouchon is located right next to the Montage Hotel and its beautiful garden, which is great for taking a stroll after dessert. As we did! We also popped in for some amazing coconut green tea at the Montage Hotel's Parq Bar. There was live music which apparently happens every night from 8PM-12AM (nice surprise!). This is a great place to wind down if you live in the Beverly Hills area and want to simply have a night cap.
