The Beverly Hills Hotel

I have seeing more of Los Angeles on my agenda this year.
We live about an hour south and I have realized I am more familiar 
with cities in Europe than I am about my own backyard.
I can tell you all of the best places to go 
in South Orange County
all the big ones … and all of the great little finds.
So now I am on the hunt  this year for some great LA finds
So if you visit 
and
 asked what's  great to see in LA
I'll have some LA answers too! 

We have been having postcard Southern California weather this season
So on a picture perfect day
Jeff, Ellis and I headed up to the iconic Beverly Hills 
to have Sunday brunch at the 
Polo lounge.
Jeff and I have had this on our must see and do list for ages.

First we had to find out exactly where this famous 
Polo Lounge was located …


We did.
It's located inside the marvelous 


The Beverly Hills Hotel
knows how to have a fun entrance to be sure!



We had a most marvelous brunch in the
 very iconic Polo Lounge.
Sadly, the lighting didn't make for good photos
which was probably for the best 
as I was with 2 of my favorite people
and truly wanted to experience 
the Polo Lounge with them. 


I had no idea the Beverly Hills Hotel 
was known as the pink hotel
when I chose my fuchsia sequins as the accent color for my white suit.
I know you'd  'luff ' it here
and not only for their accent colors
but because the hotel is a little oasis unto it's own.
The pool is lined with cabanas
the property is enclosed with living walls of green
so you feel you are on your own estate
and
 mostly because 
The Beverly Hills  Hotel
still has the Hollywood glamour it was built with
so many years ago.

Blazer-Tory Burch, white jeans-BadleyMischka, white shirt-Adrienne Vitadinni, sequin shell-Donna Karan, bag-Juicy, pearl cuff-Tamera Beardsley Design (soon to be released).

Since we were already in Beverly Hills
how could we not take a quick spin down 
Rodeo Drive.






as always my friends


I wish you love and joy
as you style your life.

    2. Une Femme, I have been here my whole life … and have barely seen much of LA. I was scared off 20 years ago going for supplies in downtown … But now it has been redeveloped and has a brand new energy to it! I'm going to have to ask Suzanne for ideas of what to see … in her comment she tells of what sounds like a dream LA stay!

  2. Tamera, you look so glamorous and absolutely appropriately attired for brunch at The Polo Lounge. I can imagine guests whispering how that remember you from a favourite film, but can't quite put a name to the face! I believe the lighting is intentionally low level to provide privacy for the famous guests?

  5. T, the funny thing is that I have been going here since I was 12 and know it better than Scotland!
    Am green with envy.

  6. When my husband surprised me last year with a trip to LA and a suite at the Beverly Hills Hotel it was the second time I'd stayed there. We stayed in one of the iconic bungalows before. This hotel has the best service I've ever received in a hotel and I adore it. Old fashioned elegance.

    You look like you were meant to be there. Hobnobbing amongst the celebrities.

    bisous
    Suzanne

  15. You are fabulous!
    And yes, it's true...we often miss out on all of the fabulousness in our own backyard don't we? I definitely know South Florida better than many areas in my own city! Crazy.

  16. Very fun Tamara! Yes sometimes our own back yards are full of history, style and inspiration. I love southern California. I have traveled there more than any other place ever. Being in Utah it is a short drive (8 hours) and an even shorter plane ride away. We have done both. I love the drive. We stay overnight in St. George or Mesquite and skip Vegas all together. We have relatives and friends all over; San Clemente, Bellflower, Cypress and places in Ventura county. I loved your photos and the gorgeous white ensemble = perfection.

  17. My niece had her Bat Mitzvah party in the grand ballroom and we had a small (11 people) for lunch in the Polo Lounge to celebrate my mother's 90th birthday. Both parties were wonderful.

  21. Awwwh. I'm feeling all nostalgic, but I have to note that the BHH never looked more glam than in photos with you in them! Such history, such old school elegance and all that goes with it. Thanks for the mini-tour of the lovely buildings, Lovely Lady!
