This Stoosh Pencil Skirt from Nordstrom’s BP department has a perfect, curve-complimenting cut. Designed for teens, but perfect for the office. And at only $38 it is certainly a good buy for fall. I’m wearing mine today with a black wrap shirt and a headband for an outfit that is more than little vintage. I’m…

Looking at this photo makes me salivate a bit! I’ve always had a soft spot in my wallet for art supplies. One trip to the art store and I convince myself I simply have to stock up on pastels, colored pencils, etc. This set of markers is the holy grail of art supplies. 140 duel…

I’m putting in all my online orders this week in preparation for the LAC anniversary party in September! Last night, I ordered a box of white custom printed pencils to give out as party favors. These white pencils will be printed with “San Francisco Ladies Activity Club” in light green ink. I figured I would…

I picked up to the photos from the Yosemite wedding tonight. Wow! Rob did an amazing job! Each picture really captures the gorgeous scenery and the love that Paul and Celeste have for each other. If I was the bride, I would have cried looking at every photo! Rob shot the whole thing in medium…

This shea butter soap smells so lovely! Nicole helped me pick it out at L’Occitane downtown last Sunday. I haven’t used it yet, because I still have some Almond Shower Oil to finish first. I hope that it will help me combat my super dry skin. In the meantime, the soap has been sitting on…

Now that the August Ladies Activity Club party is settled (we’re playing bunco at Stacey’s house on Wednesday), I can focus on planning the next party. I am hosting the club’s first anniversary party at my house in September. I can’t believe the club has already been together for a year! I just ordered a…

It’s officially fall in San Francisco! With the recent biting cold weather, our apartment building’s boiler was turned on last night for the first time in months. I immediately opened up all the radiators in our apartment and savored the the clanging, whistling warmth. Of course, this is really just “fall.1,” the first flash of…

I took this book to New York with me and am almost finished with it. The Bowl is Already Broken is centered around the staff of the Asian Art Museum and deals with pregnancy, terrorism, families, politics, religion and poetry. It investigates emotions without being corny and is smart without being preachy. It’s the kind…

After getting a lot of sleep on Friday night, I was starting to recover from my trip to New York and was feeling a bit less jet lagged. Which was good, because I had a lot planned for my weekend! I met up with Trent on Saturday morning at 9:30 to help with his everything-must-go-we’re-moving-to-North-Carolina…

I did some much needed fall shopping yesterday with my friend Nicole. One of my favorite purchases for the day was this wool sweater from Anthropologie in tomato red. They only have the sweater in black and oatmeal online. It’s much more attractive in person! (And if you haven’t been to the dressing room at…
