There are so many reasons why I love living in Santa Barbara but one perk that’s high on my list is how close it is to LA. When I need the busier city life I’m a short hour and a half away by car and can stay with a handful of friends or family. Over the weekend the beau and I made the quick trip south to have dinner with my gal pal Jacey (of Damsel and Dior) and her husband at the über cool Soho House. Since it was toasty hot in LA, I brought along this wispy favorite by Raquel Allegra.
