{shop :: Facebook}  Occasionally a store comes along that seems to represent all of things you respond to the most in the world. One of the most exciting parts about my job here is that I am able to find these places and then present them to you with open palms. This is such an [...]

{shop :: Facebook :: Etsy} Every now and then a company or brand or product comes along that speaks to you. Surely I am not the only one who has experienced this. You see something in a store or online or in a catalog and you inhale sharply and feel a warm sense of recognition because [...]

{shop :: Facebook} I have one steadfast rule for entertaining: make sure the food is good. Sure, music can help and drinks are always a plus but I find that nothing beats absolutely homemade food that makes your guests go back for seconds. The smiles get bigger, people sit longer, the atmosphere changes. The way [...]

{shop :: Facebook} There are cat people and there are dog people. Although I’m not quite sure this is accurate; I’m sure there are many people that are both. Over-generalizations and stereotypes aside, I am totally a cat person. I have only ever lived with cats and…well, I get them. My current animal is a 14 year [...]

{shop :: Facebook :: Twitter}   Let’s be honest, folks. Life is too short to have insignificant dishes. This is a realization I only recently came to, mind you. It took having dinner at a friend’s house where the dishes were simple and unique and gorgeous and (I am convinced) made the food taste better. [...]

Giveaway :: Peripeti, home

{shop :: Facebook} I get asked all the time what Peripeti means, it refers to the point in a story where a seemingly insignificant act or moment changes the course of the rest of the story. I love that concept and believe that so often what happens in moments which feel mundane can actually be moments of great significance.  Honestly, friends, [...]

{shop :: facebook :: twitter :: instagram} I am obsessed with Instagram. Some might argue that when you are taking pictures with your phone a large portion of the time, you aren’t really present. I would argue (that while moderation in everything is, of course, key) those moments that I choose to document tend to stay with [...]

{shop:: Facebook :: blog}   Does anyone else find themselves purging their house of all sorts of stuff come March? Something about waking up after a long winter’s nap, I suppose. This time of year, I find myself consistently abandoning those articles in my life that don’t make me happy and only keeping the ones that [...]

{shop :: facebook :: twitter} I have spent the majority of my life in California. I was born and raised along the Southern California coast, moved to Northern California for college, and have (yet again) called SoCal home for the last ten years. However, in between all of that, there was a brief sorjourn to [...]

Giveaway :: Filling Spaces

{shop :: Facebook} Textiles. The word alone elicits such a visceral response, don’t you think? The simplest way to take any space and turn it into a work of art with warmth and emotion and life is to choose the right textiles. From rugs to pillows to throws, the layered look of pattern and fabric [...]
