I finally got around to buying some cheerful flowers, right before I leave on a business trip to Baltimore (at least I’ll get to bust out my new Alexander McQueen carry-on that’s easily the creepiest luggage I’ve ever seen). In the meantime, I can’t wait to use our new blanket, during a screening of The Graduate, at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery this Saturday night. If anyone has ideas for what we should bring for a picnic, I’d love to hear your favorite snacks.
Psst…be sure to check out my feature over at The Supermelon!

I was reluctant to join Twitter at first, since I couldn’t imagine the benefits of divulging my every move (nor anyone’s interest in such information). Turns out, it’s been amazingly helpful with everything from getting people’s opinions on clothing, the best nude nail polish and where to go to dinner in Culver City. Beacon came highly recommended and their vegetable springrolls, ginger glazed chicken wings and spicy tuna roll didn’t disappoint.

It’s not that I’ve been oblivious to the rave reviews pouring in for the movie Up, but I’m slightly biased when it comes to Pixar. You see, I was raised on classics like Sleeping Beauty, The Little Mermaid and Snow White, so I’m reluctant to embrace any cartoon that doesn’t revolve around princesses and happily ever afters. This is why, when I saw Dina Goldstein’s “Fallen Princesses” project, I was profoundly moved (and a little scarred). Perhaps I’ll buy tickets for Pixar’s 3-D showing tonight…
P.S. I only wish Ariel had been included. Perhaps she could have been swimming around in oil-drenched water?

H&M Shirt dress, Urban Outfitters Tights, Forever 21 Ring, Derek Lam Mary Janes, Gryson Bag
This is probably the first time I’ve ever worn tights in June, but they’re perfect for those moderate days that never quite get warm enough. Plus, I’ve found that looking somewhat presentable (or simply not in mismatched sweats) while walking the aisles of Trader Joe’s drastically improves my chances for resisting their white chocolate chip cookies.
