The Tig Archives December 31, 2014 ‘My “little engine that could” – did. And it’s because of you.’ Where did this year go? I know you’re probably like me and find yourself saying that at every year’s end, but seriously – where did 2014 go?
It’s tough not to swoon over a perfectly styled coffee table, something that’s very much on my mind as I settle into this new abode. Whenever you’re walk through a gorgeous hotel lobby or through your chicest friend’s living room, don’t you always wish that your table looked so well put together?
It was a chilly evening in Santa Monica, and over a healthy meal in the promenade, my fried Dhru (Clean Program Dhru), introduced me to a man named Light. Yes, his name is Light. This is LA after all.

You see them coming from a mile away. They are the modernized realization of Rainbow Bright… times two. I met the Beckerman Twins (Samantha Beckerman & Caillianne Beckerman) last year at a dinner hosted by The Coveteur (my friends and fashion savants) & The Outnet (where I buy fantastic finds, like this & this).
Meet Jessica Stam – supermodel, sweetheart, humanitarian and expert dog cuddler. She has graced the cover of Italian Vogue an unprecedented six times, and has shot with some of the world’s most reputable photographers, including Mario Testino & Peter Lindbergh.
The fifth of May conjures up vivid musings for me – I close my eyes and picture parties for Cinco de Mayo, cucumber laden margaritas and tacos in hand, a piñata bursting at the seams with tamarind candies and ring pops.
