Five Things

August 10th, 2012

{A day spent in Malibu that couldn’t have been prettier}

We drove up to Northern California yesterday for Outside Lands and this morning we’re heading over to Golden Gate Park. Despite the fact that it’s warm and sunny outside, my parents insisted that we bring about six extra layers for when it gets chilly in the evening. So if you need a beanie or perhaps some mittens, I’ll be well prepared and am more than willing to share. Looking forward to a weekend filled with great food and music and here are five things I’m loving right now.



{Favorite brunch beverage – Gjelina’s Bloody Beer}



{My new teeny tiny diamond ring}



{Admiring the chocolate chip cookie additions (like candied bacon and banana) at M Street Bakery}



{My glittery striped Calgel manicure that matches my iPhone case perfectly}

    So excited for Outside Lands. I was running a few errands in Mill Valley yesterday and I couldn’t believe how gorgeous the weather was! Had to stop for an iced tea on the patio at Depot. Have a wonderful weekend!

    The tiny ring is absolutly gorgeous. I’m not a big fan of all the giant fake statement jewelry, so this pretty little one could definitely be on my wishlist :)

    I’ve been reading your blog for years, and even though the outfits aren’t always to my style, I completely am in awe of your entire blog, and the way you incorporate food, fashion, and interior design into it.
    Keep it up :)
