Montecito

One of our favorite California destinations is Montecito. We find inspiration just behind every corner in the American Riviera...
Take Madame Ganna Walska, the eccentric Polish performer-come-collector-of-husbands. This fabulous woman spends her days at her 37 acre botanical paradise "Lotusland," cultivating some of the world's most rare flowers and plants, all the while decked to the nines in her incredible jewelry collection.



Oprah also lives just around the corner so Montecito is confirmed fantastic.



Then there is San Ysidro Ranch.


A famous destination for Hollywood couples


Laurence Olivier and Vivien Leigh were married here,


The Kennedy's took their honeymoon here,

And one of our favorite faces Lily Aldridge, tied the knot with Caleb Folliwill here just this May.

But our favorite thing about San Ysidro? The ribs and the mac & cheese at The Stonehouse restaurant, sit outside for stunning ocean views if you can! Lovely.

If we are dining in, we love to visit Pierre Lafond wine bar and market on San Ysidro road for the most delicious treats like their own label's caramel and oreo popcorn.



Be sure to head downstairs to Wendy Foster to browse the newest delivery from the lady & the sailor, just shipped to them today!
