Waiting for the heat wave to pass in LA, venturing into it feels like going into battle so I'm here sifting through photos. Here's a small selection with a debut appearance by my Jerome Dreyfuss Carlito bag next to some Parisian strawberries that tasted even better than they photographed, the Pascale Monvoisin thin metal bracelet I've only taken off when it threatened to decimate my open knit sweaters, and a shot of the Basque coast. I've never seen stormier or more tumultuous waters, you can literally sit in a daze and stare at the waves crashing against the rocks there for hours.
