Flores Lane

Setting the mood and intentions with Flores Lane

What a year, right? I’m always one to juggle a million projects and ideas around, but constantly staying busy creating art is what truly makes me happy. While it feels like 2021 has just been a constantly evolving shit show, I did my best to get lost in my art. This past year I finished my first life size commissioned oil painting which has inspired me to create more prints and promote my art more, I got to play with some incredible musicians and make new friends including the Stu Hamm Band, Journey and KYGO, I got to travel domestically (not as much as I normally do, but still very grateful for that), I got to play Red Rocks, see The Stones, made three trips to Joshua Tree (two trips for shows and one for a dear friend’s wedding) and produced a Christmas music video which has been my biggest solo musical production to date. This year is off to a solid start with so many new goals I plan to achieve and I feel like I’ll actually have the time to make them happen! I have plans for new music videos, more paintings and maybe even a children’s book that I’ll write and illustrate! It’s gotta start somewhere and I’m using this blog post to hold myself accountable. When it’s time to unwind from my constantly busy mind, or time to get motivated to create, I’ve got a few Flores Lane candles burning. There’s nothing like being in a room with warm soy candles and delicious scents. If you’re in the market for new candles and wondering which Flores Lane scent to choose, you’ll never be disappointed because every single scent that Flores Lane creates is amazing. I discover new favorites all the time! And c’mon, how classy do these candles look? You can’t go wrong with their signature black and white jars.

Happy New Year, bunnies!

Tulle & Batiste

Lounging Las Vegas

Poolside in Vegas sounds just about right. And nothing could be more lounge worthy than a gorgeous two piece set from Tulle & Batiste. What I love so much about this company is that everything is designed and made ethically in Bali in Tulle & Batiste’s very own factory. The garments are SO well made and the fabrics feel absolutely incredible, the olive color way is one of my favorites. Tulle & Batiste’s shoes are equally stunning, these all leather woven sandals have become a staple in my wardrobe, living at the beach I probably wear them just about every day. And let’s talk about some fringe…never too much! The pom pom crochet bag is such a rad statement piece with so much movement. All perfectly fitting with this amazing retro leather couch from Titus Cosmos.

Abacaxi Keeni

Endless Summer

I know it’s technically sweater weather but that just means adding one more layer over your bikini. Of the 15 years that I’ve lived in Los Angeles, I’ve finally moved to the beach and my bikinis are actually seeing the light of day on a regular basis. This ‘Bum Bum’ set from Abacaxi Keeni is one of my all time faves and has been currently on eternal repeat in the bikini rotation. The ruffles are my absolute favorite part, along with the always flattering rouched bottoms. I’ll definitely be wearing this under other garments, and yes in fact it would pair so well with a slouchy beach sweater. The artist, Lana, has hand-painted and drawn the design for each of her suits. As a fellow painter I so appreciate that extra bit of love in each and every piece.

Black Magic Woman

She’s trying to make a devil out of me

The dark side of the epic Cakeland LA installation. A padded room with disco lights, luscious fabrics and a larger than life black forest cake of my dreams. The perfect scene to debut some neon yellow tiger stripped stiletto cowboy booties. And what’s one without the other? Of course paired with a Planet Cowboy hat and a stunning vegan leather tie front dress from Jennafer Grace. Be sure to check out the lighter side of Cakeland with another Boho Bunnie shoot by the talented Angela Izzo.

Cakeland LA

Everything is better with sprinkles on top

This past April I got to shoot at Cakeland LA, the magical immersive dreamscape of floor-to-ceiling cakes designed and created by artist Scott Hove. Scott has been creating cake themed art since 2005 and just this past March 2020 opened a permanent display in Chinatown, downtown Los Angeles. The details are so incredibly impressive, the paint frosting looks like it can be licked straight off the walls. Scott’s mission statement is “to give viewers a transcendent art experience using his take on traditional and natural themes of beauty, with classical design principles, color and pattern found in nature, and spiritual depth.” There is certainly so much spiritual depth in this installation, Scott’s creativity and attention to detail is exceptional. Adriana Sahar’s delicious Paris Hilton-esque dress was so fitting for the beautiful pastel cake palettes at Cakeland’s ‘The Beauty War‘ photographed by Angela Izzo.

Stay sweet, bunnies!

Ripple

“If my words did glow with the gold of sunshine”

I am so excited to premiere my newest single and video “Ripple” by Grateful Dead! Audio recorded, edited, engineered, mixed and produced by Teddy Jack & myself, and video directed and produced by Angela Izzo, @izzoimages. As many of you may know I’ve been a fan of the Dead since my teens. My pedal steel playing is heavily influenced by Jerry Garcia’s playing (I taught myself this instrument by learning all of Jerry’s iconic pedal steel solos). It was about this time last year in the middle of the lockdown that I sat down at my steel and started figuring out some of my favorite melodies. “Ripple” came to mind and I arranged this song over the course of many late night highly caffeinated practice sessions (my favorite type). I wanted my version of the song to have a loose, nostalgic feeling so I chose to record it as one take without a click, letting the musicality dictate my timing. Angela’s vision for the music video was spot on, creating trippy prism shots and floral overlays. And in true Boho Bunnie fashion, I chose to include some of my very favorite designers and shops for my look including jewelry by Rose & Bolt, dress from The Lotus Boutique, and hat and boots by Planet Cowboy. And for you gear heads, I’m using the Keeley Electronics Caverns x Bohemian Bunnie special edition Delay/Reverb pedal!

When there is no pebble tossed
Nor wind to blow”

Sugar n Spice

If I had to pick one thing to wear around the house til the end of time it would be Clare Bare. No joke, I’m slowly building a collection that matches every room of my home. Made from recycled and upcycled materials, Clare Bare designs these incredible pieces out of her Los Angeles studio. Everything that Clare designs is absolute gold!

Black Satin

Satin & Suds

What else do you wear in a 1920’s Spanish tiled bathroom? I couldn’t dream up more comfortable, flattering and undeniably sexy lingerie. Clare Bare has a magic touch with everything she creates. Handmade with so much love in Los Angeles, her pieces are true art. Clare uses lots of vintage fabric with her designs and just recently made this black satin part of her regular collection. The perfect twist on the basic black set.

Stay clean, bunnies!

My Bunnie Valentine

Stay little Valentine, stay…

Just this past week I got to make some magic with the amazing Angela Izzo photographing designs from our absolute favorite lingerie designer, Clare Bare. Clare is releasing a few limited edition styles made from new vintage fabrics she’s been collecting over the past year, and I had the honor of musing for Angela in these custom designs. Clare’s work is incredible…hadmade in Los Angeles and seriously the most comfortable garments I own. And this vintage mini daisy print I just can’t get over!

Each day is Valentine’s Day!
