Oh Nina!

When designing Seaton, I try to imagine women (or girls since I still call myself a girl) who epitomize the Seaton lifestyle.




Aside from Sarah and myself, my glorious friend Nina is the ultimate Seaton girl. Here's how we met last year. She waltzed into yoga one day wearing a weathered straw fedora and I just knew I needed to meet her. She happened to place her mat down next to me so I decided to ask where she bought her hat. She replied, "Oh, this ratty old thing? I got it in the South of France." Well, this immediately struck up a conversation of all things French and when she found out that I was the designer/owner of Seaton she screamed, "I can't believe you are Seaton. I only wear Seaton and Chanel!!!" So here is a little montage of the beautiful Nina who jets between her homes in Mammoth (she's a crazy expert snowboarder), Mazatlan (Claro que si!), Villefranche-sur-Mer in France and Santa Monica,CA. She is wearing vintage Seaton in most of these pics which just makes me smile.

Bonne été mon amie!!!


This was today on Paloma Beach in the South of France.
That's her sister Susie with her.

Crazy Strong Girl!



We would have been best friends if we had met during my ice skating days.

Happy Yoga on a Happy Island

Missing my Maha motivators but still enjoying the warm, tropical air and beautiful swaying palm trees as I push through my practice in Hawaii. Over the past year and a half, Happy Yoga has given me such a gift. Yoga helps to calm the mind, strengthen every muscle in your body and nurture the soul.
Thank you Steve, Tom, Stephanie & Susie too!
Namaste ~

It all started with the bag...

So I fell in love with Celine's new bag for Spring but have yet to splurge. Phoebe Philo's minimalist chic is so appealing right now. I just love the latest Resort 2011 collection of clean lines and long leggy looks (if you possess those of which I do not!) Scroll down a bit further to see my very talented friend Jenni Kayne's take on the simple shapes. Need to order these for the JR stores ASAP! Red Sheath=Must-Have!
