2016 HIGHLIGHTS!
2016…it was an interesting one. i spent a lot of time away from home, i got a new boyfriend, i traveled a lot, i transitioned into some new career paths, i’m learning to cook better, and now finding a lot of happiness at home. here are some of my favorite blog moments of the year…
my 30th birthday trip to marfa with 7 of my girlfriends.
london with denise. we had the best time!
valentine car shoot
my first line of products in target was probably the most exciting thing about this year. it was so surreal to see it on the shelves! we had a brunch to celebrate…
we moved from our giant loft space downtown to a quieter calm cottage in echo park. it’s a happy space we are still making our own.
i teamed up with winc and made my own wine! we got to taste, design, and go through the whole process.
seeing the luis barragan houses in mexico city was one of the highlights of my year!
it was my dream to visit tokyo and jen jesse and natalie and i finally pulled the trigger and went! we saw so much and made incredible memories there!
some parties just have happy, light, late night energy. this backyard movie night we threw ended up being one of the happier nights this year. see our setup…
sometimes you gotta just collaborate with someone and make pretty things to keep yourself inspired. this photoshoot with jenn sanchez was just that!
one of my best friend’s had her bachelorette trip in cartegena, colombia. what a new experience! el camino planned it and we had such a blast.
this year i did some new career things that pushed me outside my comfort zone. (in a good way!) i filmed a few segments for TV for the new year’s special HGTV Dream Home. you can watch me on the episode on january 1st!
we threw a backyard friendsgiving party in victoria’s backyard!
cammy got married in louisiana. it was such a fun lake house wedding!
i’ve got a new product line coming out in early 2017, and we shot them in hawaii this month. i can’t wait till it’s released!!!
it’s definitely fun to look back on fun memories from the year, you should do it too. this year, i’m taking my boyfriend home to illinois to my family’s house. going to just lounge around and hopefully it will be snowing outside. this california christmas weather just doesn’t quite feel festive. happy holidays, everyone!! thank you so much for following along and i hope you have a relaxing end of year. lots of love! xx bri
Isn’t it weird I feel like I was there with you? I remember each event so well. You had an amazing year x

Now this could just be the internet’s elusiveness talking, but your life looks freaking spectacular. You have officially inspired my New Year resolution which is to live more Carrie aka Carrie Bradshaw. To take more risks with my fashion choices, day to day adventures, and to have a kick ass girl group to do so with. Thanks for the amazing blogging and inspiration, hope 2017 brings you more love and joy.
Ah, I love your photos! Especially the Mexico city pictures! 🙂
Happy Holidays!!!!
such good memories! I loved following along with you throughout the year 🙂 cheers to making beautiful new ones in 2017!
