A Womans World: Beverley Hills Style...

It's easy to see why so many of our Aussie's are making their way to LAX. With it's effortless style, a lot of glam and a little bit of rock star, the City of Angels is easy to fall in love with.

I have come to realise why America is a place many of us aspire to move to. For one the shopping is half price but more importantly it somehow inspires something great within us to shine brighter than before. I have always found that in America everything is possible, even the impossible! Over the past few years some of my friends, my yoga teacher and one of very own Private Access Woman mentors, Kathryn Eisman moved to La La Land, launched her second book, secured herself a spot on Oprah's new network called OWN, just announced her engagement to marketing legend Siimon Reynolds and is basking in the Californian sunshine and living her happily ever after.

Recently another one of our Aussie's and fashion interns travelled to the land not so far away and discovered one of the most fashionable and chic hotel groups and definately one that is yet to be discovered by our Aussie travellers and soon can be, with loyalty privileges through the relaunch of Private Access Privilege. Some of the best things in life are free and others you just have to experience in style, luxury and exclusivity.
