Irvine

Irvine is consistently ranked as one of the best cities to live in, well known for safety, education, and its strong job market.

Another great perk of living in Irvine is how close so many shopping centers are! One that always comes to mind is the Irvine Spectrum Center. I love knowing that I can get all my shopping done in one place. In a single trip, I can buy a gift for my friends’ birthday, get new clothes for my always growing boys, and pick up a little something for myself!

Anthropologie

Anthropologie is one of our favorite stores, we love their cool and relaxed California vibe. The perfect spot for a curated mix of distinctive clothing, accessories, gifts, and home décor. We also love their Anthro Living Home, which has fun and unique home decor and furniture. Everything you find at Anthropologie is unique, uncommon, and feels original.

Lululemon

Since the New Year has begun, I’ve really started focusing on my health and fitness (especially since summer is around the corner)! Like lots of other women, I’m absolutely obsessed with Lululemon’s athletic wear. All of their clothes last forever and wearing them makes me more motivated to work out! Their store at Irvine Spectrum has a great selection of leggings and running shorts to choose from. I’m always so tempted to buy everything in there!

Ambiance Home

In my spare time, I try to focus on finding new trends, decor pieces, and furniture for my clients when they want to move or remodel their homes. A spot that I visit often for inspiration is Ambiance Home in Irvine. They have a chic collection of plush accent pillows, soft throw blankets, and lots more. I like that the whole store is filled with elegant and timeless pieces.

To add a pop of color to a simple room, I usually look for an accent chair or pillows that stand out in the store! When I went last week, I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw the perfect emerald green velvet chairs they had on the second level for my home.
