Art comes in many forms. I discovered the work of two photographers who like to play with their food and fixate on flowers. For Plaza magazine, photographer Philip Karlberg: And Exploded Flowers by...
At first glance of the Met Ball 2013, you might say to yourself, "What is wrong with everybody? Is snorting cocaine trendy again?" But then everything makes sense once you know that the celebs are...
Monkey see, monkey do! It took some time for me to embrace the idea of matching prints and twin sets (they're "too matchy matchy" my mother might say). But I'm much more open minded to the look...
Happy May Day! With many of the Spring 2013 designer collections, I've seen a trend in menswear-inspired womenswear. It seems the theme is more boxy, less body-conscious silhouettes. But even...
Friends and family, we are gathered here today to celebrate.... style! My hubby and I will have the pleasure of traveling all over the country this summer for our friends' weddings. I love love...
If you're a long-time fan of Saturday Night Live, you probably know this Mango... But did you know that there is a Mango Women's Collection? (No relation to Chris Kattan) Admittedly, I had never...
Let's be honest: photog Mario Testino can really do no wrong! Though I'm never incredibly inspired by supermodel Kate Moss (due mainly to over-saturation of her image), she and Testino certainly...
If you've ever visited Nor-Cal or chatted with a Northern Californian about their home, you know that they are very proud of their Redwood forests. And it's easy to see why! The quiet, majestic...
I may have been born in the 1980s, but I'm a child of the 90s for sure. There were a million and one things to relish about this exciting decade, but the following is a comprehensive list of...
I've been especially fond of florals so far this spring. As I typed that just now, Miranda Priestly's voice popped into my head, "Florals... for spring? Groundbreaking." The idea of florals for...
Pretty flower bouquet cones from Kinfolk magazine, vol #7. And interesting Spring inspired styles on singer/model Sky Ferreira for S Moda. I dig mixing separates in unexpected ways! Images from...
Hubby and I are just wrapping up a busy and fabulous visit from his parents. Thanks for coming all the way to Cali to visit us, B & P! Some photos from our day trip to San Francisco: Grace...
Cubism, impressionism, surrealism, minimalism - I love pretty much all the isms when it comes to art. I was recently introduced to the work of White Rabbit (the online persona of Hillary White);...
Whenever Hubby and I finally have a few hours together on a pretty day, we like to go on adventures. On one recent day, we turned what was supposed to be a quick jaunt to watch the surfers into a...
Happy St. Patrick's Day everyone! It's that special time of year, my other favorite holiday (second only to Halloween). CHEERS, young lads and lassies ~ A few of my St Patty's inspired outfits from...
As I was thumbing through this month's issue of Vogue magazine, one particular image in the Mario Testino photo spread stopped me in my tracks... Why does this location look so familiar to me? I...

Spring is around the corner! Is your closet ready for the season? If you live in a climate like we do here in the Bay Area, your spring wardrobe may consist of light layers as the warm days turn to...

My Hubby finally got a breather from work for the All-Star break, so we took a little day jaunt down the Cali coast to visit a beloved place from my childhood, the Monterey Bay Aquarium. I'm so...
Hey guys! Geez, sorry it's been so long since I've posted. Our god-forsaken internet connection has been spotty for a couple weeks now. And I'll be honest - making the dreaded phone call to set up...
I was reminiscing about my time in Japan after seeing this pretty photo story in Vogue Germany. The Eastern themed editorial reminded me of all the geisha photoshoots we got to witness in Tokyo...
The seagulls at the museum always give me a great shadow puppet show. Charles, my family's new beagle puppy, looking dapper in his bow tie. I love Papyrus cards Adorable vase and key holder I found...
For my dear friend Morgan's birthday, I treated her to a painting adventure. We painted pottery at a local studio here in Santa Cruz called Petroglyph. Such fun! The Before shot I painted an...
Interning at our local art museum has exposed me to some dynamic and highly innovative art forms. The following mind-boggling sculptures are not currently in exhibition at my museum, but I wanted...
While we just recently discussed color in our wardrobe, there is no denying the power of simple black and white. Experiment by pairing the black pieces in your closet with each other. Ever dress in...
These surfers have no fear! A few photos I snapped to break in the new Canon while on a walking adventure : Cowabunga! Images property of me! Please request permission before use.
Do you love music? Love movies? Love the music you hear in movies? I've been a fan, nay - an aficionado, of movie soundtracks since The Lion King debuted. While I hold film scores and musicals in...
When I feel a little down in the dumps with cold and rainy winter weather, one of the ways I like to add pep to my step wardrobe-wise is by rockin' bright colors. A tropical inspired print, hot...
