Lubov Azria

As the chief creative officer of BCBG, Lubov Azria is a woman who knows fashion. And she certainly knows a thing or two about packing as well. Here, Azria shares her top travel essentials for beach vacations, as well as her favorite summer spots.

Hyde

Sam Nazarian has a lot to celebrate these days. The sbe founder, chairman and CEO will not only open his largest hotel to date in Las Vegas this August, but he’s also embarking on new residential real estate ventures around the globe. To be so successful before the age of 40 is quite a coup—which is why, when Sam’s 39th birthday rolled around, he was ready to party.

Check out Spoke & Weal founder Jon Reyman’s eight tips on how to get a gorgeously groomed mane.

celebrity chefs

Some of our favorite restaurants in Los Angeles just so happen to be owned and operated by celebrity chefs. If you’re in the mood for some truly amazing food (and to hopefully sneak a peek at that guy from “Top Chef”) here are our top picks for the best eateries in which to find food, fame, and fortune all in the same place.

Best cheek stain

Is there anything more attractive than a flushed face? Think right after a good workout, sans sweat, or the rosy hue you’ll find on your cheeks after a day of fun in the sun. Here are our picks for the best cheek stains that will replicate that peachy perfect glow we so covet.

Malibu Beach Inn

Driving up the coast along the PCH, you already know a few things about the Malibu Beach Inn. It’s in close proximity to Nikita, Nobu and the Malibu pier, is located on “Billionaire’s Beach” and is owned by mega-mogul David Geffen. Though all these facts might foreshadow how awesome your stay will be, you have no way of knowing just how much you’ll absolutely fall in love with this boutique, 47-room property—we didn’t, at least.

Tom Ford

This week in Los Angeles was all about fashion and philanthropy. Max and Lubov Azaria held a fashion show at home, Tom Ford has been named an inspiration by amfAR and Larry Ellison hosted a benefit to save California’s wildlife. Here are some of the top sartorial and charitable moments of the week.

Hotel Casa Del Mar

Hotel Casa Del Mar’s Terrazza restaurant has one of the best ocean views you’ll find in Los Angeles, but this newly renovated cafe and lounge isn’t just a charming place to sit serenely by the sea: it’s also a great location to indulge in delightful small bites and great wine.

Max Azria

Lubov and Max Azria opened up their Los Angeles home to one of the coolest fashion events of the summer: the first and only presentation of BCBG Max Azria’s Resort 2015 collection.
