City of Light

City of Night.

A night out in Hollywood. It’s weird to think of all the times I only dreamt about what living in the city of angels was like. The parties, the glamour, brushing shoulders with celebrities, the exclusive clubs…when I first moved to LA it was all what I envisioned, even more. Walking into a party was like walking into a spread in Vogue. The most gorgeous people were dressed like they came off the runway. It was an experience that I’m so glad I had but sooooo would never do again. Going out in Hollywood meant rounding up all of your favorite girls, meeting for drinks at someone’s restaurant where the comped all the food, going to the club where you sat at a table and Grey Goose flowed like water and not expecting to get home until dawn. The only money that was spent was the $22 exchanged for a cheap Forever 21 dress. A lifestyle that felt so elite and intriguing but so not the real world. Now a night in Hollywood is quite a bit classier wearing some of my favorite brands like Gypsy Junkies & Bed Stu, and reserved for special occasions like eating at my favorite gourmet vegan restaurant or catching a rad musical act. Knowing there’s something for everyone in this city at any stage in your life is why I love this lost city of angels.
