Interior Love- Anarchy in the U.K.

Since I was a kid, I have always been exposed to the British culture through T.V. shows my dad would watch (Ab Fab, Faulty Towers, Father Ted). Needless to say, I became a fan of this small island country rather early in life. It was the first country that I visited as an adult (with my bestie) and my obsession was validated in a single trip!

From the homes of friends to British shops to restaurants, it is easy to see that there is a flair for design in this country. When I saw this post on apartment therapy I was thrilled! It reminds me of this book that my friend has New London Style - which is awesome, totally worth checking out. Here's an ode to the Union Jack and English style!

Travelog- Fake tales of San Fransisco

Was in San Fran a few weekends ago and I must say that I really love that place! The vibe is just amazing and I feel like it's totally my style. It's a city of artists and writers, it's a city of hippies and hipsters, it's a city where the thick fog hugs you in a chilled embrace. One day I wish to live there, even if it's for just a little while.










Fake Tale of San Fransisco:

Homeless guy: Can you spare a couple hundred dollars?
Me: *laughs* when you find that person, send them my way!
Homeless guy: I'll have my people contact your people.
