Just Sweet Love

girl crush

I don't care how much clothes I have, I am that girl who stands in front of her closet saying I have nothing to wear. Every single day. On the mornings where I can't get my head to think straight, I'll normally go onto Kendi Everyday and check out her wardrobe. 

I think she is such a cutie pie and I love the way she pairs her clothes. 

See what I mean? Cutie. Pie. 

My Weekend in Photos

     

A walk through Farmers Market in the glorious morning sun 

I moonlight as a furniture mover sometimes 

Quite possibly a new obsession

It's a penguin, you blockhead!

Five Things Friday

My lovelies, what are you up to this weekend? I'm thinking of hanging out with a friend and watching season four of Lost! Then, on Saturday, I'm going to try out a supposed rad ramen joint. Could it possibly beat my all time favorite?! I will keep you posted. Have a sweet one!

I. cannot. wait. to. see. this.  

An amazing story of working hard and never giving up

This chart made me laugh out loud 

This DIY roundup is the best I've seen in a long time

watch and wait

I am so not ready to talk about this passion of mine. And this super short (less than 15 seconds) has been in my queue and on my mind for a short time now. It's helping me discover a part of myself I didn't know I possessed, whilst helping me heal and bring to life a sleepy dragon (that's what one girl called it) that has been dormant for so long. I have a longer clip that I hope I'll grow bold enough to share one of these days. Until then. xo, j

 

Good Eats: Little Next Door

I might be a bit biased because I own a similar looking expresso-beaned creature myself, but I am so in love with Little Next Door. The moment I stepped inside the restaurant, I felt transported to a charming Parisian bistro with lush green plants and fantastic lighting.  

 

I had the tasiest Moules Frites and my handsome friend over here, Derrick, ordered the whitefish. They have an impressive wine section and a very sweet bakery to match. I just wish we had room at the end of our meal for dessert. I couldn't handle it :) 

Good Eats: Loteria Grill

In the hustle bustle of Farmers Market, there is one particular food stand that sticks out above the rest. All my friends rave about Loteria Grill and I was so excited to finally try it. 

 

The food exceeded my expections! My burrito was jammed pack with flavor and their salsa had the perfect amount of kick. I was left in an overwhelming state of food coma. Yum.

LOVING Amy Tangerine's Sketchbook line! Super amazing stuff.

This last layout came from the wise words of Wiz Khalifa. 

Honor the Cheese

I am a self-proclaimed grilled cheese aficionado. So it was only natural with yesterday being National Grilled Cheese Day, I had to pay homage to the toasty and gooey goodness. After attending the amazing Sucré show, Lauren and I went to Astroburger to fulfill our grilled cheese fantasty.  

 

Amazing. xo

Five Things Friday

What are you up to this weekend? The weather is supposed to be nice and somewhat sunny in Los Angeles, but I have to work on Saturday. Hmm. Not ideal. Nevertheless, I have dinner plans with my big sis and I am so looking forward to it! Have an amazing weekend!

I finally got around to putting together this little project of mine. March was a month of putting a lot of words into action.
