An Afternoon of Pampering, Santa Monica Style!

A few weeks ago, I was invited by the lovely Kristen to attend a fabulous beauty and shopping event at The Doves Studio, a posh salon located in the heart of Santa Monica. I noshed on flatbreads and sweet treats, browsed the cute jewelry from Catlin Nicole and Ryggrad's fall collection, got a blowout from Christopher Dove, one of the most talented hair stylists in the world, and got my first ever gel manicure from Orly. It was such a relaxing and fabulous way to both unwind on a Saturday afternoon and prep for a Saturday night party.

The amazing Doves Studio team! Can't ask for a friendlier and more talented group of stylists. Christopher literally gave me full, wavy hair in less than 10 minutes!

Orly gel nails are a godsend. Two weeks later and my manicure STILL looks good.
