This summer, the one thing I absolutely, positively cannot live without is...
"Vanilla extract — a few drops in my water bottle keep me drinking water throughout the day. It’s so tasty. Plus, I am less dehydrated when running around on photo shoots. Also, Hendrick’s and soda, fuchsia lipstick, and my new Jendarling bag! My dream day would include some bikini time clocked in Dolores Park with a cookbook and PBR."

Current food obsession...
"Pretty much anything with dried or fresh chilies. I even make matzo ball soup with Thai chilies. Schezuan pepper is my new obsession thanks to Mission Chinese Food, which is conveniently located one block from my apartment."

Next up on my Netflix is...
"My ultimate dream would be to take three days off and watch Marilyn Monroe movies. Marilyn was such a sly and humorous actress. The Misfits, though sad, is one of my favorite movies ever."

Latest guilty pleasure...
"Instagraming my dog. I only do it once in a while, but I feel just a little bit like a nutso dog mom! He is just too good looking."

The one song I can listen to over and over...and over to is...
"Jasmine” by Jai Paul, “Pair of Wings” by Frankie Rose, and Lilac’s “Shame. These are all in a rotating trio on my iTunes. I guess I’m in a slinky-slash-dirty-slash-sweet music phase."

The latest trick I've picked up from a R29 editor is...
"How to wear orange lipstick, by the lovely Katie Hintz-Zambrano. I never thought I could rock the vivid hue and now I love that NARS lip pencil!"

My must-have cheap thrill...
"Combing thrift stores for silver flatware, mismatched antique china, and granny tchotchkes is pretty much my heaven. I also love skin and hair products, but tend to just hoard samples, because I like trying new products all the time ... inability to commit, I suppose."

What cultish Four Barrel is to the local coffee scene, that's pretty much what Scribe has become to the wine world… Read More
