  • They’ve decided…

    They’ve decided…

    …the chair is theirs. And we were all like “but you’re white dogs on a black corduroy bean bag chair, the HORROR!!” but they didn’t care. So we don’t either.

  • It’s beginning to look a lot like… a home.

    It’s beginning to look a lot like… a home.

    Slow progress, but progress nonetheless. Very excited to finally get my vision going on a somewhat steady pace.

  • Details.

    no need for words.

  • Additions.

    Additions.

    So the great sofa search has ended. Sort of. The biggest issue we encountered was finding something big enough to accommodate the usual number of guests we have and stay comfortably within our budget. We envisioned a large comfy sectional that would double as a bed for our friends without designated drivers. When we finally…

  • Game Changer.

    Game Changer.

    I found this picture a while back and fell in love with it. Partly because it feels dark and cozy to me, and partly because I know everything in it is from Ikea. I stumbled across something today that might be a game changer for us. For me in particular because I instantly remembered this…

  • Treatments.

    Treatments.

    Shoes: Marni Platform Sandals Come to momma! Trying to put a dent on my List while preparing for Fall and Fall 2.0 (aka LA Winter).

  • Driving in Leopard

    shoes: calvin klein, jeans: levi’s deconstructed 501s Finally found a pair of leopard driving shoes I’m in love with, just had to look in the men’s section to find them. I was worried about the fit since some reviews claimed they fit true to size and others advised sizing down. Since my size wasn’t available…

  • Fall-ing Forward

    I can’t even begin to explain how ready I am for Fall. I’m completely in love with the gloomy weather LA’s been experiencing these past couple days and I’m hoping its not just a tease. If you were raised anywhere where the climate going below 40º was a normal occurrence then an LA fall/winter will…
