sequined music

How to spend a lazy day and get some sun in LA when driving to the beach seems too far...this park is just 2 blocks from home :)
The necessities...snacks, fashion magazines and music. Those honey wheat pretzels from Trader Joe's are dangerously addictive....beware...
 Just jammin' with the boom box 'bag' my friend brought along...there's an Ipod connector inside it~coolest thing ever. And it sparkles with sequins. I have to get one!

Hidden Treasure

Vintage shopping might be my favorite kind. This particular store has $1 yard sales EVERY Sunday... it requires a lot of digging, but there are hidden treasures to be found :)
 Inside the store...over-stimulation...
 I almost bought this...this could actually even be my old shirt...had one just like it back in the day :)
 My new (well...old) red clutch~have been wanting one! (not part of the $1 sale but still a great price)
 But the scarf...best dollar I ever spent...

pleated

Dresses, skirts, pants...pleats (aka 'permanent creases') are going strong this spring season...fabrics like crepe and silk tulle and anything that's to the sheer side is particularly on-trend.

light my fire

When the fire alarms go off at work...walk to coffee bean and take a little break.
Went with their delicious fruit fusion iced tea...(have limited myself to one coffee per day). I also love the ice at coffee bean, it's the smaller/softer kind ~ you know what I'm talking about...best kind to eat :)

Wore my new skirt again b/c it's just so soft and comfortable, AND, there are so many ways to wear it.
(top -LF Stores; skirt- c/o BB Dakota; shoes -Deena & Ozzy; necklace-forever 21; 
sunglasses A.J Morgan;  bag-Miu Miu )

cocktails and dreams

Cheers. It's Friday and Memorial Day weekend!
The thought of 3 day weekends make me feel like I'm still in high school I get so excited :)

All You Can Get

Gasp....I'm not really a 'candy' person, but I do have a weakness for peanut M&Ms.
I'd have a serious problem if I 'wore' this :)

ferry

...the ferry building, that is. 
Perfect warm(ish) sunny day wandering SF
 the BEST farmer's market there is.
musicians everywhere
 My other half...often mistaken for sisters. 
When you're both tall with matching hair it's bound to happen. 
We're perfect shopping partners, and like to buy a lot of the same things too :)
...just walking through a neighborhood is overstimulating. I love this city, when it's sunny.
this statue of chains is crazzzy
break time.

shiny and new

My latest...most acquired while shopping in SF (why is shopping in another city more fun?)
I've accepted that you can never have enough super soft white distressed T-shirts...
 ...and yes...I scored the perfect pair of cat eyed sunglasses I had set out to find :)
