I spotted him in front of Gjelina in Venice, CA and loved his hair and schoolboy style. Gotta love a bold bowl haircut with edge.

Venice
I spotted Katherine in a breezy asos hat (and gorgeous Balenciaga bag) as she was waiting on a table outside Gjelina. She just moved from Silverlake to beachy Venice and told me, “I have really been taking advantage of walking to all the AMAZING restaurants here!” She shares her top picks below.
Katherine’s also wearing a Max Mara sweater, Current Elliot jeans and raybans. I’ve obviously spent a lot of time in Venice lately (can you blame me?), but will be posting some belated features and party people — plus streetstyle from a new adventure very soon. Have a great weekend.
Katherine’s Six Beachy Faves: Tapas and wine at Primitivo, fresh fish at Shima, the cheese plates at Venice Beach Wines and all out brunching at Gjelina (featured here); I could spend hours and hours there. I also love to start off my day by walking to Groundworks for a cup of coffee and next door there is an awesome little deli called Zelda’s which is a great place to pick up paninis and sandwiches for a picnic and amazing people watching on the boardwalk.

Esther Loves You – I spotted Esther Kim on Abbot Kinney and discovered she’s an illustrator who grew up in Los Angeles and Tokyo. She’s done a heap of fashion illustration and was recently interviewed by Japanese magazine GIRL Houyhnhnm. My personal favorite? Her VISA cards! I spotted her technicolor top knot as she was parking her car and just had to say hello before she headed into Firefly, the street’s perfect little one-stop-shop. If you’re wondering, her cute bag is Moschino.
Her clients include Nylon Magazine (US, Japan, Korea), Urban Outfitters, Ellegirl Korea, Anna Sui and Kid Robot. You can get to know her at EstherLovesYou.com.

Sitting in Sunshine – I spotted Laura on Abbot Kinney Blvd today, quietly soaking up the sun in accessories she’s picked up in Paris, Greece and Morocco. I liked the blue and purple hues flowing through her look, which gave me ideas for livening up my own grays. She’s sitting on a blue crate outside Gjelina Take Away (GTA, we say) that we all use as tables and chairs in a recess nestled between the restaurant and A. Kinney Court. I also spotted a graceful girl, an illustrator with crayola colored hair and Michael, who changed the patina of his eyewear to mimic a Japanese brand’s matte frames.

(Q & A) - I spotted actress Dawn Olivieri (Vampire Diaries, True Blood, Heroes) wearing Boho Chic during Abbot Kinney’s First Friday event, where a bevy of food trucks overtake the street. She was trying the event for the first time and was such a cool spirit that I wanted to know more about her and she was nice enough to share in below’s Q&A. She was actually on her way to Haiti for some volunteer work and shares more about her look and some tasty foods from that night below.
What’s the secret for pulling off the BoHo look?
Dawn: It’s all in the detail… earth tones, movement and rough edges. I don’t just limit it to the clothing either… for me, it’s how I live. Click for Dawn’s style story.

Confident Color – I didn’t even catch their names as they breezed by, but can tell you she was wearing a green Zara jacket, rocker T, French jeans and Jeffrey Campbell floral platform shoes. I wonder what cool kicks he picked up at A. Kinney Court…
See their full shot and colorful shoes after the jump. [Allright, already... show me.]

Sweet Thing – I spotted Jessie Webster, a photographer and style blogger, in Venice with her beau James. She’s wearing a vintage polka dot dress, a Foley + Corinna bag, Rachel Comey shoes (on sale here) and a Wendy Mink ring. They were on their way to dinner at Gjelina (my fave) when I discovered she has a style blog called Sweet Thing and is also part of Glitter Guide. As far as Jessie’s look, she likes to take style cues from old photos of her mom who she calls insanely stylish.
I thought her look was a perfect blend of vintage meets modern. James, an actor, is wearing a Bryan Husky jacket, J. Crew shirt, Heritage shorts and Sperry topsiders. He snaps shots of Jessie for her blog, which seems to be a trend among some of the top outfit bloggers. Aren’t they a cute couple? You can vote on Jessie’s look here.
