Color Camp has opened on my block. OH THE JOY! This sexy little, modern manicure bar is a “cross-section of beauty, design, and technology, with a laser focus on cleanliness, a thoughtful approach to health, and an extensive, customizable nail art menu.”
It’s everything you’ve been looking for (and more).
I don’t recall when we became Cannabis reviewers but my office girls are nothing less than ecstatic. We all have different needs (hi, I’m a mom), tastes and likes. One thing across the board, we are all into anything medicinal, plant based and high end quality.
On point and on trend. Not to mention sexy and just the right amount of edge.
If you are like many of us here, you have very specific desires when it comes to cannabis. I for one hate feeling high or out of control. Personally I am as far from a stoner as you can get. But by god, I have anxiety and get VERY TENSE!!! I don’t drink or do any drugs and quit Ativan years ago as it kills people. I have trouble staying asleep. I am basically up all night. It sucks!!! So I am all about finding a medicinal way to address my stuff. This chart is amazing. Check it out.

Oh hi FALL!!!
STS Blue is making your go to skinny blacks, effortlessly edgy.
Check out the fall look book here and see what styles are trending in LA. There are so many awesome things happening in the denim world this fall season, like funky hem details, cool treatments with embroidery and vintage washes.
But the one that is TOTALLY TRENDING IS:
Denim on Denim – I know seems crazy that denim is the trend in denim, but it is! We are in a denim cycle. People are wearing jeans of all different washes, silhouettes, and fabrications. One of the biggest rising stars is the denim jacket.
STS Blue is introducing an over sized boyfriend fit… It feels lived in, cool and is actually comfortable to wear. STS Blue will have it in so many vintage washes and with lots of fun detail.
One of our favorite jackets from the fall line is a vintage wash boyfriend jacket with #beentheredonethat embroidered in navy script across the back.
It’s a little bit of trend that doesn’t feel trendy and can still be worn all the time.
Though you may think it’s faux pas to wear denim on denim it’s totally trending.
If you super daring when it comes to new fashion trends, pair it with contrasting jeans (dark jeans /light jacket from STS Blue of course!) if that is a little too far out of your comfort zone pair it with our black EMMA ANKLE SKINNY or the ZIPPER DETAIL gray jeans.
We are loving this AMAZING Emma super soft mid rise Ankle skinny in Black
Benefits- $45 (HELLO UM YES PLEASE!!!!)
9″ rise
28″ inseam great for all shoes and it’s super skinny so you can totally wear it with over the knee boots
Super soft fabric
cool matte black hardware

For National Men’s Grooming Day, Groomed LA teamed up with Baxter of California to support their #LifeLivedTrue Campaign. Baxter of California, a brand born in LA from its founder’s independent spirit, sought to reimagine its position in men’s grooming through provoking, real stories and cultural observations that connect with evolving trends, preferences, and lifestyles. The resulting brand campaign, “Life Lived True,” is an honest depiction that grounds the brand in a modern California culture through a lens that is inclusive of all expressions of masculinity—modern masculinity. “Life Lived True is about being honest with yourself, embracing your imperfections, and not being afraid to showcase who you are as you experience life. This campaign aims to show our consumers that we will never be a brand that wants to dictate who they should be or how they should live their lives. Baxter of California wants to be a partner on your journey, empowering you to make your unique mark on the world by living freely and authentically,” notes Baxter of California’s Global General Manager, Yann Joffredo.
The brand teamed up with agency of record Exposure America and photographer Ben Grieme to introduce “Life Lived True” in the city it has called home since 1965—Los Angeles. The series of portraits, accompanied by scenic imagery, shine a light on the diverse subjects, cast from the streets of LA—true to the spirit and culture of this city. It was important for the brand that this honest, authentic spirit of California culture was captured not only by the subjects’ stories and their environments, but also through their unique styles and grooming habits. The brand enlisted the help of Baxter of California Lead Stylist, Whitney VerMeer, to get the job done.
“I work with a lot of career models, but my favorite projects are the ones where I cast people from Instagram or someone I pass on the street who has an interesting or intriguing look – most don’t have a modeling background in any capacity. There’s something really beautiful about watching a person transform behind camera and see their confidence blossom throughout the process. It was easy to appreciate the fresh approach and styling of this Baxter of California shoot since it’s very much in line with what I do,” Whitney VerMeer, Baxter of California Lead Stylist and NAHA 2017 Men’s Hairstylist of the Year.
