Saturdays at the Farmers Market
Every Saturday my fella and I bike down to the Silver Lake Farmers Market and load up on lots of fresh fruit, veggies, and seafood for the week.  We make such lovely meals from all the ingredients I thought I would make a weekly post out of it.  Now if I can just remember to take a picture of the food before we devour it!

How did I only just hear about the High Line?  It's a new elevated park on the West side of Manhattan that was built on an abandoned freight railroad. Downtown LA take note, we need something like that over here.

This weekend was the Steven Alan sample sale in Hollywood at Siren Studios.  

I got some fantastic pieces that I had been eyeing for a while at a huge discount and I haven't taken the light plaid shirt off in a couple days. What? It's comfortable!

I have been dreaming of putting this Cole & Son wallpaper in my house somewhere ever since I came across it in Domino Magazine.  The only thing is I rent, well that and it costs a small fortune.
I found these removable wall decals but I don't know...they look a little kids room-esq to me.

So I told my friend I wanted a crystal pinata for my birthday and she laughed and told me of course she would get one for me...yeah right they exist.  Umm...look what I found

I just finished David Sedaris' latest novel 'When You Are Engulfed in Flames' and loved every bit of it. I love his witty prose and I'm pretty sure I woke up my man a couple times laughing out loud while reading in bed...sorry.
Next on the list 'The Brief and Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao' by Junot Diaz. I know, I know this was all the rage however many months ago but better late than never right?

Pretty sure I bought a very similar fabric back in August and made a super similar dress. I guess I know how to wear it for winter. Thanks A.P.C.

My boyfriend Jusitn and I recently moved in together...eep! Really though I love it, and love that I get to spend my days redecorating the place and he gets to come home to something new almost every night. Here are some pictures of the changes we have made so far.

I took a road trip up to San Francisco this weekend and stumbled across the most amazing nursery/coffee shop Flora Grubb Nursery. I was so excited to find they carried Woolly Pockets. I know it sounds kinda dirty, but I just had to get one, I mean who wouldn't want a garden in their living room?
