My friend Kiersten just started up a brand new blog and I took part in her “1 Item 3 ways” feature. This Military Jacket has become a staple in my wardrobe so I thought it would be the perfect item to show you how I style it a few different ways. Get all the details […]
The Madewell party on Thursday was a blast, Prosecco & shopping should always go hand in hand. 🙂 Thanks to everyone that came out, it was so fun getting to meet some of you in person. My parents also arrived for a visit this weekend, we were hoping to have the construction done by this […]
Now that we’ve made the space for it, I am on the hunt for the perfect dresser. Here are my top picks from near and far. Woodwind Chest from Urban Home // Hazel Chest by Arteriors // Case Study Dresser by Modernica // Dawson Chest by Crate and Barrel Uptown Dresser by The Land of Nod // Asher Dresser […]
Excuse Cracker’s foul modeling please, and check out our (almost) bedroom walls! It feels so good to see the structure start to come to life and it also led to a quick changeroo in the plan…
Tortoise shell has been used in decoration since the ancient times but I sure do like to see it’s likeness applied to modern pieces in the home and in fashion. Here’s a few of my favorites right now. Cocktail Table by Mortise & Tenon // Tortoise Swimsuit by Karla Colletto // Clutch by J.Crew
I have to say 2014 is kind of kicking my butt. I have been juggling a bit too many things, and the stress of it has already started to take a toll (I was supposed to worry less this year rememeber?). It is hard not to work extra long hours when you work for yourself […]
I’m so excited to announce that I am teaming up with one of my favorite brands, Madewell, to host an event next week! We will be celebrating the Santa Monica location’s 1 year Anniversary and the launch of their new Spring Collection. We’ll have sips and sweets, a special in-store discount, as well as a […]
SInce the new bathroom is beginning to take shape, I’m getting into some major retail therapy by ordering all the fun finishes. I love mixing old and new, so when it came to designing our little loo I wanted to find the perfect modern vintage mix. I did this by combining sleek new pieces, like the […]
Remember the “future bedroom” I pointed out here, well I thought I would share what all we have going on inside. On the top is the existing floorplan of the tiny bedroom and sole bathroom. Below that I’ve drawn out our plans for the addition (the light blue lines show the old walls that will […]
I was on the hunt for some bookends when I remembered this vintage pen and pencil holder on 1st Dibs that I had been eyeing and thought I could whip up a little something inspired by it. The making of the bookends turned less into a whipping up and more into a blister inducing fight […]
As you may have noticed… I couldn’t get enough of the freshly fallen snow while we were in Michigan. More photos and my favorite winter walks after the jump…
Inspired by my weekend jaunt all over L.A., I am planning a little stay/workcation at a hotel on the other side of town, so that we can escape the construction for a couple of days. Waking up to wood saws, hammering, and the smell of welding copper pipes maddeningly a touch too early for me […]
I got to play tourist in my own city this weekend with one of my best gal pals who was visiting from San Francisco. We caught up while buzzing around town to a lot of my favorite spots. Here’s the short list for our whirlwind weekend in LA. We had an unforgettable dinner at Alma, […]
I loved reading all your pendant light picks and I don’t think I could have gone wrong with any of the choices, but I landed on the iconic midcentury shape of the Alto. Now just to bite the bullet and find a fixture for over the dining table! I also added a vintage bar cart to the room […]
Modernism Week in Palm Springs is just around the corner! I am excited to share that I am the special guest judge for this week’s #ModernismProject contest on Instagram. Get all the details and how to win after the jump…
Not only am I big fan of marble in the kitchen, but I love seeing it’s likeness pop up in fashion and paper goods. I just ordered this planner (I can’t wait to get my hands on it), and I am seriously contemplating that dress and that pillow. This wallpaper is pretty amazing too. How much marble is too […]
