home improvements
For the first time in the six years that I’ve been living in New York, it’s been decided that so long as rent stays the same, we’re sticking to our East Village apartment (as much as I would’ve loved to stay in our Wall St. high rise, we always knew it wasn’t ours for long). So for the first time that I’ll live in one space for longer than 14 months, I’ve...

iphone memories of a trip west
Momofuku Milk truffle cakes - passalubong/omiyage (traveler’s gift) for the family - Sheryl cut them up and served them on a platter, as she usually does
In-N-Out, that’s what a hamburger’s all about - my usual: cheeseburger...

autumn breeze
When I left my apartment this morning, I had regret wearing cords. It was hot and muggy. When I left the office tonight, I was happy I took the blazer with me. Autumn came blowin’ in by early afternoon and by the evening commute, girls in their summer dresses were running home from the cold. Who can blame them? Hours prior, I wished I had worn one too.

the blonds
Last night, Jerah sent me a message that he was at The Blonds fashion show and that it just wasn’t the same without me and the other ladies who helped produce The Seven’s piece on them. Aside from so many things that made that story a really heavy piece for our team, it was special for me because it was the first that I pitched and booked on my own. With Lia (OG fashion producer)...

raw collab
Last night, I dragged Jen out to the opening reception of Prouve Raw’s pop up shop in the Meatpacking District (which I always knew as the Little West Village - I don’t know where that came from). Small and swanky with glasses of Moet flowing and yummy tiny grilled cheese sandwiches to celebrate the launch of G-Star Raw’s collab with French designer/architect Jean Prouve. I...

rainy days and mondays
Last week’s rainy mornings really threw me for a loop and I found myself walking out the door in these preppy/manly getups. I’m not sure how much I really dig them.
This Monday morning was back to warm, which is great considering my mile-plus walk to work. I found myself walking out the door in this casual number. I’m very confused these days.
(Don’t worry - I...

day at the lacma
I haven’t been to the LACMA since high school so while visiting the hometown, I made it a priority to check out the upgrades. It’s great to see LA making more out of wide open spaces and moving parking lots underground. It was also great to see the Tim Burton exhibit after missing its stay in NYC. I have to say, being allowed to walk an exhibit without having to fight for space in a...

fashion's night out - my night in...
Again, fashion and I don’t have the best of relationships, despite how much I love it. I’m not very competitive so vying for its attention is a lose-lose situation for me that I’ve learned to accept. So tonight, Fashion’s Night Out, is just another Thursday night. My bucks are still down after a summer of unemployment and an unpaid week in LA, and call me jaded, but I...

WatchI couldn’t decide on just a few pictures to summarize my trip to LA and the Bay so I went with all of them and figure I can post specifics later. These are just a few moments I was able to capture through the week spent with family and friends. Missing: nights out with the girls, journey to throw a Miracle Fruit party, prancing around the 90210, reenacting the Heineken commercial after seeing...

beauty & essex: take 2
A couple weeks ago, I posted some pictures from my adventure to Beauty & Essex with cousin Kevin and his DJ friends. Here are two more shots by Lilia - a sweetheart from Norway who kept me company while cousin Kevin skidaddled and got “whitegirlwasted” as he calls it (he totally did). She does blogs the right way - bringing the camera to the swag events. More great shots here.
