A Little About "Moi"
I was born in Southern California and have always enjoyed life “au soleil”. As much as I love my hometown and its wonderfully picturesque beaches and quaint neighborhoods, my heart always yearned for more; a new experience, an exciting adventure and preferably, in a far away land! The driving force behind my move to Paris is 2000 was a culmination of many things. I have always been passionate about fashion, plus I am a die-hard romantic. Art, history and architecture move my soul, I am a curious person and I absolutely adore languages and their many differing accents. Both my grandmother and my grandma traveled the world, so evidentially I caught the travel bug from these fabulous women! Following the footsteps of famous expats such a Fitzgerald and Hemingway, I lived in Paris for 4 years earning an Honorary BA in The Art of Living Abroad. Amazing experiences, life changing moments and revolutionary ideas, from my time in France, certainly impact my views on life, the way I interact with people and how strongly I feel about the importance of following one’s dreams. After moving back to Southern California in 2005, to marry the man of my dreams, my many experiences, hundreds of memories, along with vivid souvenirs of the sights and sounds of Paris helped me realize that there is so much more to a woman's appearance than just fashion. It has much more to do with personal style and individual personality expression, through the way one dress’s. A Rendez-Vous with Style was born from the fire that burns within my soul; the desire to offer guidance and help educate women on how to better understand their bodies, dress their shape and embrace life to the fullest, every single day. At A Rendez-Vous with Style we offer wardrobe consulting and styling services for women; Fashion Styling, Wardrobe Styling, Image Consulting and Personal Shopping. I work with clients throughout Southern California, women of all ages and stages of life. I hope you enjoy my blog and come back often! Please feel free to leave comments and interact with my readers… it is always great fun at A Rendez-Vous with Style. A Bientôt!

Don't be afraid to experiment with colors that are not usually associated with Thanksgiving, Christmas and other end of the year holidays. Just grab a metallic clutch or step into a drop dead gorgeous pair of metallic heels and you are out the door.

For added style and warmth invest in a beautiful pashmina that you can beautifully drape around your shoulders during your soirée! I can't help but love scarves, wraps and large cashmere pashminas... that's the French in me!
