The devastation throughout Southern California is unimaginable. We are incredibly grateful that our whole team and all of our families are currently safe, however our hearts are broken for lives lost, and for our friends, peers and clients who have lost their homes, businesses and belongings in the past 24 hours.

Please stay safe tonight. 😔♥️

It was a tough Thanksgiving, but we remain more grateful than ever for our family, our friends, our community … and the incredible team at USC. Liam experienced some severe complications over the weekend and went into a downward spiral that landed him in the ICU, and left us all reeling. But he somehow managed to fight his way back and is now out of ICU and on track ... with a jammin new haircut and a restored strength in what is possible to overcome. We are still awaiting the results of the bone marrow transplant but are reminded that it’s a marathon not a sprint. Thank you for the continued support for Liam on his journey.

Day Zero: Transplant Day

Yesterday was an emotional day filled with nervousness, gratitude and hope. Liam’s journey of healing, strength and resilience continues. We know this won’t be easy but we are in this together.

To the person in Germany who so selflessly gave my son a second chance at life, words will never express our gratitude.

Here’s to new beginnings and the incredible gift of life. 🩸♥️

This baggage has me emotional. Louis Vuitton has sealed its first luxury hotel inside one of its iconic Monogram trunks … and we are obsessed. Located on the Champs-Elysees in Paris, the hotel is set to open in 2026. 👜

Just remember, there was calm before the storm … there will be calm after the storm.

Sending strength, hope, and love to all those affected by the hurricanes. 🤍

We were truly A-MAZED with how this intimate wedding came to life. Inspired by #legendsofzelda and the couple’s love of greenhouses, this whimsical wedding took guests on a journey from space to space through @vibianaevents and @redbirdla. Take a peek at this beauty! 🍃
