Im not big on perfume, in fact most make me sneeze and stuff up - but not this amazing one from Lush. It doesnt smell perfume-y at all, and changes into this highly addictive caramel scent the longer...
One of my favorite brunch places in LA, especially when I need to scratch a Paris-in-LA itch, is Cafe Stella. I usually get the eggs benedict with smoked salmon, because using hash browns in place of...
I had really great luck at the Rose Bowl a few weekends ago - bought this library card catalog for half the offered price, and couldnt resist this pink room divider. Youve just gotta have things that...

Love this image of Clémence Poésy in Glamour UK - it hits all the right notes for spring. Saturated pastels (seems like an oxymoron), fearlessly mixing patterns, loose wavy hair, and cardigans with b...
Ive been obsessed with this chair for a long time, and now that we have more space I think I know a perfect corner for it in our bedroom...
