{Weekend Snaps} LA, Baby.

By Julie

This past weekend I was in Los Angeles with my family to co-host my sister's baby shower. We always try to make the most of our family's 'girls weekends' away so we made it an entire three days of celebrations-- Virgo birthday soirees, bridal dress shopping and a chic shower for the most adorable baby mama to-be. 

Here are a few of the weekend's best snaps. 


You know you're in LA when your Vera Wang bridal consultation gets bumped the morning of for a last minute celeb Emmy fitting. My guess is Julia Louis-Dreyfus! 


My sister's famous homemade Banana Cake and our favorite mint gimlets at The Ivy


Pre-baby shower blow-outs at DryBar in Manhattan Beach. So glad one is now opening in Tribeca, I'm hooked!


Anyone recognize these Bruce Springsteen lyrics? This beautiful gift and sophisticated nursery decor also served as a creative guest sign-in page (on the back) so the baby and parents-to-be will always remember the sweet sentiments of the day.



Delicious antipasti spread a la Tin Roof Bistro.


A display of the baby mama's favorite desserts including a gorgeous macaron towers from the team behind Apples & Onions; all the DIY details can be found at La Femme Epicure


One lucky little girl.


One of the most treasured party guests, my sweet baby niece Ruby! 


The hot mama and all her darling friends/ party co-hosts.

Thanks to all who made the weekend so memorable! Cannot wait to have another adorable baby niece to dote on. The countdown is on...
