A New View

popup

Over the weekend Lukus and I finally had a chance to do a walk through of our new apt… empty and perfectly ours. Unfortunately we won’t be moving in for a bit (our furniture is now making its way from LA after spending the last few months in storage).  But that doesn’t mean we couldn’t… [Read More...]

FNO Fun

IMG_0500

Last night was Fashion Night Out—did you do anything fun? Here in New York, I had the pleasure of meeting up with the lovely Kristy Elena of Vogue Gone Rogue/Full Time Fabulous at the Sunglass Hut event on 5th Ave.  From there we visited the Omega Store (& partook in a glass of champagne!).  And… [Read More...]

Wine Of The Week (41)

chinonrose

It seems like a lot of the people in my life are on the precipice of something new.  And with all this changing going on it is easy to get caught up in the craziness.  So, with this WOTW (that’s “Wine Of The Week” to those of you unfamiliar with acronyms) I suggest you open… [Read More...]

Bohemian Beach Escape

Ella Moss Dress...

This probably comes as no surprise, but it may be time for a getaway.  In fact, I may go so far as to say, I need a getaway.  Okay, maybe it isn’t life or death… but my brain, my brain would LOVE a getaway! So I am stealing a page from Kristy (the talent behind… [Read More...]

Playing Hooky

Beach Day

IT IS THE VERY LAST DAY TO ENTER THE PUMA GIVEAWAY!!!!   Today is one of those days that would be best spent playing hooky.  It is actually a good day… things are going well at work, the sun is shining, Lukus is recovering from his surgery.  Just a good day.  So I want to… [Read More...]

Outdoor Refuge

Enter our great big PUMA giveaway!!!   I am sick.  And miserable.  Horrible I know.  I think it may be the plague or a really bad cold.  Either way, I feel awful. So instead of sitting in the sun and enjoying the beautiful weather in Los Angeles, I am laying in the fetal position on… [Read More...]

Coastal Trappings

993353_028_b

With the advent of some warmer weather and a few trips to the beach (it’s nice to only live 25min. away!) I am loving a touch of the coast- especially in home decor.  It just feels so seasonal!  But don’t get me wrong.  I don’t want to be hit over the head with it!  It… [Read More...]

Sunday Brunch

il_570xN.225661788

I am really enjoying the weather in Southern California right now and it seems the rest of the Northern Hemisphere is also moving into spring.  It is so great to get outside and spend time in nature.  It’s kind of like coming out of hibernation with friends as well.  Suddenly everyone is feeling a lot… [Read More...]

Wine Of The Week (22)

Hugel Cuvee

This week has FLOWN by.  I feel like I have only now had an opportunity to exhale (despite my best effort to on Wednesday- see Earn Your Stripes).  So, when I asked David to help find this week’s wine, I begged for a clean, easy and refreshing wine- something that would help me kickback without… [Read More...]

Earn Your Stripes

hammock

I know!  It’s Wednesday, and you are working, and the weekend feels so far away.  But I can’t help myself.  This photo from Daniel Hertzell has taken me far, far away.  I am craving a cup of mint tea, a hammock and a good book.  Somehow, nothing expresses this desire more deeply than one of… [Read More...]
