Forget the photos! Use your accessories to decorate your wall.

My color block wristlet from Express. I needed something I could go anywhere with without having to carry my oversized bag that weighs about 10 pounds.

What's inside? Card holder, phone, lip gloss, chapstick, and keys. No room to pack unnecessary items, which is perfect when you are on the go.

As a stylist I tend to collect not only wardrobe, but also accessories. Boxes and boxes of jewelry flood my closet and sometimes I forget what I have so I finally bought pocket hanging organizers. Took me about an hour, but it was worth it.

Keeping up with the New Year's resolution. I'm chopping these colorful peppers up and throwing them in salads and tacos.

Cookie dough+heat= delicious chocolate chip cookies

New candles from Bath and Body Works. Their new collection, Escape to the Tropics.

Island Colada

Tiki Beach

Coco Lobo

Sunrise Lagoon

Caribbean Escape

and much more!!

Weekend Wrap Up

A gift from my best friend Richard, an anti-aging serum by Guerlain. I don't really like to talk about expensive items because I think that affordable apparel and beauty products are just as good, but since this was a gift I had to share. I also have to admit I LOVE this product because it is so light weight and leaves my face really soft.

It helps wrinkles and improves tissue firmness...who doesn't want that? I know I do. And it has lots of great reviews, yup I did my research. So I am carefully using a dime size everyday until I wipe it clean. If you want to splurge, here you go...

Abeille Royale Youth Serum by Guerlain

$100.00

Cookie Monster is back!! My friend Richard took care of her when I was gone for the holidays and it was time for a bath. Too big for the sink, it's gonna have to be the tub next. lol

So I just recently moved into a new place and like all other fashionistas I have stacks and stacks of magazines that I need to catch up on. It is so difficult letting go until I have gone through every page and ripped out all the amazing photoshoots and style articles. So this weekend I am catching up on all my past issues and letting go one by one.

I told you I have a sweet tooth! Chocolate chip cookies for dessert with vanilla ice cream.

Yoga Dogs

$10.85

Came across this book at a local boutique. Humorous dogs and puppies doing human yoga poses. Great gift for dog and yoga lovers.

Sunday Farmer's Market

I haven't had a snow cone since I was a kid. My favorite flavor, blue coconut. The results- a blue tongue and a huge smile.

How was your weekend?

Weekend Wrap Up

My Diamond Sapphire earrings and necklace from my lovely Mitch.

I received this amazing gift in the mail from one of my best friends. It is homemade hot pepper butter. Don't let the name fool you because it is not hot and it is not made with butter. :) I am going to spill a couple of ingredients to you- yellow peppers and sugar. So yummy! Best to eat with crackers, cheese, and even salami. Thank you Carmi!! xoxo

So great to be back in Los Angeles. The weather is amazing compared to 6 below degree weather in Wyoming. The sun is shining and I am ready to finally run outside in this beautiful weather.

Cucumber, pineapple, and mint drink. Always refreshing!

I really do have a sweet tooth like many others do. So from time to time I try to enjoy a nice dessert to satisfy my cravings. Ice cream and a hot brownie cake to die for at Aroma Cafe.

My client and really amazing friend Laura Nativo. At the Grove in LA enjoying a low fat cheesecake....low fat?, YEAH RIGHT! Hope you had a wonderful birthday Laura!!

TGIF!!

Have a wonderful weekend everyone!

Flea Market Extravaganza!!!

Weekend Wrap Up:

Morning start...

Eggs, hash browns, french toast and two shots of espresso and a couple of donuts...ughhh I know, guilty pleasure, but it's Sunday :/ Thanks to my awesome friend Brooke for making a delicious breakfast. Today our plans entailed a trip to one of the best flea markets in Los Angeles located at the corner of Melrose and Fairfax. The shopping is endless!! You will find cool vintage clothes, lots of jewelry, furniture, books, records...I can go on and on.

I get inspired by people and cool vintage pieces. The creative juices start flowing and that's what I love about it the most...oh, and the occasional crepe for lunch and freshly squeezed lemonade :) YUM!!! Check out some of my cool finds below and let me know what you think!
