DINNER GUEST: ROZ KAUR
Current city: Roseville, California (but I’m always halfway to San Francisco)
Favorite Petite Frites piece: The Champagne necklace—it’s delicate but has personality, and I love how it sits just right on the collarbone.
Signature style: Right now, I’m diving into color. Summer is short-lived, and I want to soak up every gingham, stripe, and color clash I can. Never met a stripe I didn’t love—and I finish it all off with denim.
Style Icon: Cate Blanchett—she’s bold, elegant, and never boring. I love a woman who can command a red carpet and still take risks with silhouettes and styling.
A vow-free achievement worth celebrating: Leaving my full-time job at 58 to build the career I always wanted—styling, storytelling, and showing up fully as myself. It’s never too late to start.
Best advice received: You don’t need to change your body. You just need to change your clothes.
Best advice given: Your style should reflect your soul, not a trend cycle.
Favorite meal: A granola bowl with fresh California fruit, homemade granola, and Greek yogurt—summer in a bowl, and my current obsession.

On your nightstand: Gardenia candle, my grandmother’s bangles, and a notebook for middle-of-the-night downloads
