We were sleeping till you came along.

Hello friends. I am back home from our trip and am heading out to work for Darling at Market Week.

Thanks for all your sweet comments on our wedding photos and I can't wait to tell you all about our trip soon. :)

This is what I wore to a girlie shopping day with my mom and sister at Victoria Gardens. We stopped in Pasadena for coffee and my talented sister took some photos. We had such fun. :)

My favorite is the doggie pin. I mean, what can I say about it other than the fact that it's it's a wooden Weiner doggie pin? So fun.










(Blouse, skirt, pin- Vintage, Backpack- c/o Romwe, Tights- Hue, Shoes- Asos)

So, that egyptian looking ring is from Jewelmint and while I love their whole deal, the brass started to rub off the first time I wore it. Really, with a supposed retail value of $110? I don't think so. Having said that, they have lots of cute things so I won't be surprised if I order from them again.

Anyway, I guess we're moving to Santa Monica. Does anyone know of an amazing 2 or 3 bedroom house available for rent? Ok, make that a guest house. Why is Santa Monica so expensive? It's ridiculous, even for LA. It's still exciting even if we'll have to hike our rent up!

Here's to change and looking forward to something new everyday!

  20. i really dig all the different textures in that skirt!
    there are some cute condo style places with yards (for Birdie) in Marina del Rey off of Marquesas. Our friends just moved over there with their dog. its right near the harbor and fairly reasonable, not sure what the vacancy situation is. Good luck in your hunt :)

  28. Owow love this look! Such a casual and fun outfit for the great weather we've been having in SoCal lately...I'm really loving that ring, so unique...If the brass starts rubbing off some more, douse it with oven cleaner and it should strip to a chrome finish in 5 seconds flat! Just a little DIY trick I use for residential remodeling :D
    Happy Monday!

  32. I have 3 necklaces from Jewelmint and love them all. I haven't had any problems at all with them so hopefully your ring is an oddity. I'd try calling customer service and see what they say.

  35. You're moving?! Pour quoi? I thought you loved living in Downtown? And your loft is fabulous. But yes, it's always nice to have new beginnings. I'm super excited for you. SM is super expensive, but it's by the beach and amazingly beautiful. I love your feather blouse. So pretty!

  36. Moving, what fun! And you look fabulous as always.

  44. ah maybe see you at market :)
    Congrats on the move soon! Ryan works there and we were thinking of moving there as well just cause the hideous traffic of the 10 but... we couldn't do it. Pasadena's just too hard to move away from. Hope you find a cute little cottage!
    P.S. started those posts. Liska's one is up! Yours will be up soon
