RAEN Optics SS13 Lookbook

No one looks—or lives—the part of a Los Angeles cool girl more than model Abby Brothers, who shows off the best new looks from Raen Optics this month on their website. Here, her secrets for surviving LA:

What's the most innovative thing you've seen recently?

The Bronson Pincho Project. He bought a bunch of beautiful old homes in this old small town in Pennsylvania and rehabs them, but he only uses repurposed materials. Watch it! He's got innovative down to a tee, and I love that he shows people how to reuse things we never would, keeping all of the new crappy shit out of our landfills by recycling.

Favorite piece of clothing right now?

Duh, it's the Abby dress by Elkin! Just kidding, but it's freaking amazing—all their stuff is, no joke. And if you know me, you know my "fancy pants," a.k.a the Janis bells from Novella Royale.

If you could leave tomorrow, where would you go?

Back to Amsterdam to reenact my honeymoon adventure. Then I'd come back and the next tomorrow I'd go to Lake Powell, the second best place ever.

Describe your style icon and your style.

Deep down inside my style icon has and always will be Left Eye from TLC. Imagine how her style would have evolved if she was still here. My style on the other hand is really confused. I go anywhere from men's jeans and a vintage zig-zag shirt to a pretty baby-doll dress and heels in the same day.

What are five secrets of living in LA?

1. The best Japanese place on earth is called Eggplant.

2. Camping in Ojai.

3. Back streets in traffic.

4. Don't try to make friends here—randomly find them.

5. Know the people who own the place, no matter where you are.

i would love to see her do a more European styled editorial. I am kinda getting tired of this whole Califronia Edgy/ Terry Richardson thing that is so popular right now. I like a more polished Abby.

I hate to say it, but IA. A lot of her new stuff is starting to look like the same thing over and over again...She is too good for the work she's been doing.

I think she has been shooting outside of LA. I just haven't been able to find those pics.
