  • A Case For Nicole Warne*

    A Case For Nicole Warne*

    He doesn’t know what a Gary Pepper Girl is. He’s not quite sure what part of the world she hails from. He couldn’t tell you what her name is if his life depended on it. But whenever Nicole Warne’s gorgeous face flashes across the screen on my laptop (while we’re laying in bed watching yet…

  • date night.

    date night.

    Yong and I live together. Commute to work together. Are usually in some sort of communication throughout the day (AIM, WhatsApp, texting, etc) when we’re not physically together. Its not a hard-set rule, not a trust issue. Just something that came about from how our relationship formed. We like it, it works. The day it…

  • work&play day.

    work&play day.

    Peplum tops and magenta-colored trousers. Staples? Maybe not for everyone but I wouldn’t mind adding them to my arsenal. Currently my commute leaves me completely drained when I get home. Cook? Clean? Ugh, how about a nap instead? Nevermind falling asleep randomly around the car/house when I get home (don’t worry, we carpool), an invite…

  • farmer’s market.

    If you’ve never attended your local farmer’s market, you really don’t know what you’re missing. The atmosphere, the weather (in LA), the food and a great date is just something I can’t turn down too often. Unless of course I’m experiencing the various unpleasant physiological effects following heavy consumption of alcoholic beverages. Not that this…

  • sunday brunch.

    I was never really the brunch-type (if there is a such a thing). Mostly because I’m not really a morning person. Until we discovered Bottega Louie in Downtown LA (which I’ve mentioned a couple of times before). Below is my “all I have to do today is look good & enjoy brunch” outfit. The heels…

  • workaholic.

    workaholic.

    I’m sure I’m in the minority when I say I’ve always wanted to work somewhere with a strict business dress code. What I really mean is I’d like to “have to” wear pumps on the regular. I’ve always obsessed over admired professional women that can take “business attire” and put a creative spin on it.…

  • summer love.

    summer love.

    It seems the hardcore summer heat the East Coast has been suffering from enjoying recently has finally decided to make its way West. I’ll be the first to admit that we’re a bit spoiled when it comes to our weather. The average daily temperature in Los Angeles is a balmy 72°. That’s exactly what we’ve…

  • Birthday Girl.

    Birthday Girl.

    Hadn’t really thought about celebrating my birthday this year. No particular reason, just didn’t know what I’d do besides enjoying a nice dinner with Yong. The idea of dancing the night away was suggested last night and before I knew it I was inviting folks to one of our favorite lounges in Santa Monica. I’ll…

  • Dressing Up As: Wedding Guest

    Dressing Up As: Wedding Guest

    Yong and I are attending a wedding this weekend (he’s is actually a groomsman!). We’ve known about the date of the wedding for well over a year. I didn’t slack a minute in looking for something to wear to the grand event, but for some reason or another it took me almost the entire year…
