I have a confession to make: I have just recently discovered liquid eyeliner. I know what you’re thinking, where have you been? but I never really could get into it. Until now. I just got one of Stila’s new ‘Stay All Day’ waterproof liquid eyeliner pens and it is my new Spring makeup obsession. These pens…
vogue hits san francisco
This is what was happening just miles from my apartment last Thursday evening while I was sitting on my couch watching Sex & The City reruns in my bathrobe drinking Two Buck Chuck. Yes, that is Miss Anna Wintour (I love her jewels and her furrrrr) cracking a joke to Gwyneth (with Mia Wasikowska and a dapper date…
a little sunshine, a little vino
This past Saturday my girlfriends and I spent the day in Napa celebrating the final days of Alicia’s bachelorette-hood. We couldn’t have asked for better weather, as it was a beautiful day, and so much fun. So much sparkling, rose, merlot, pinor noir, chardonnay and girlfriend fueled fun. Cheers to you, Alicia. …
going tribal
… I am having major lust over these tribal inspired fringe necklaces from Italian brand Iosselliani. The multi-colored fringe effect is made by dip-dyeing and partially oxidizing silver and gold and other mixed metals. Too cool. I love the one at the top is peppered with Swarovski crystals for added Glam factor.

great food + great design

Well the artist that does those book covers is Coralie Bickford-Smith and she has a new set of books coming out this month…

café de la presse
… I’ve found a new favorite French café in San Francisco (second to Café Claude in Claude alley), Café de la Presse. Perfect Sunday afternoon glass of wine catch-up-with-good-friends locale, or just a nice place to get out of the house and enjoy a cappucino, a snack and French Vogue solo. Please note: their french onion soup was divine.
lavender & florals
… I was recently looking through my inspiration tears and I came across these lovely fashion spreads from Elle’s March 2010 issue. Even though they are a year old, they still feel so relevant. I am loving the grounded in lavender color palette sprung to life with optimistic literal and abstract florals. These are the perfect…
