What I’m Wearing
* Rich Soil LA Forever t-shirt …men’s small p.s. this is Lakers Lamar Odom’s clothing line – love that!
* London Jean Chino Shorts …I think I got these at Victoria’s Secret
* Thrifted denim shirt …last seen at Eat, Sleep, Denim
* Vintage Matisse turquoise necklace {seen here} I wore it backwards to show the copper side. Love. Tom Ford cat eye sunglasses, brushed gold hoops, brown leather belt, huge wooden bangle with copper studs {gift from drollgirl …thanks!}
* Miu Miu clog sandals …last seen here
* Louis Vuitton bag …which is really working with so many of my outfits lately.
My vacation time is quickly coming to an end. I go back into the gallery on Thursday.
The idea was less about vacation and more about getting a glimpse of what it would feel like to have this blog/all my other projects be my main focus …to be my own boss and be completely self employed. And while I do LOVE not worrying about what time I fall asleep {I’ve been sleeping way better} and getting to roll out of bed whenever I feel like it, I miss the small schedule that breaks up the monotony of being at home.
I’m typically a home body so if there’s no need to go anywhere, I won’t. LA’s a city but if you don’t live on {or a block away} from a main Blvd. you’re typically going to spend 15-20mins in the car and if there’s traffic, which there always is, it’s more like 30-40 minutes in the car. And it’s not like a nice breezy relaxing drive. It’s hell. Absolute hell. Which means, unless I really REALLY need to, I’d rather not subject myself to the stress that comes with it 😉
So, needless to say, I am looking forward to going back to work …but I’ll letcha know on Friday, after two days of it, how happy I am about it.
So yeah, the Lakers lost and we weren’t happy about it. But we grilled up some delish steaks and veggies on our new BBQ {thanks Timmy!} and enjoyed time with friends. Immediately after the game I ran to the bedroom to watch my DVR’d East Coast feed of the MTV Movie Awards ….and the husband joined, which was nice. He usually doesn’t enjoy award show nonsense but it was fun watching it together. I think we realized that while the quantity of celebrities at the MTV Movie awards far outweighed that of the Lakers game, the quality of the celebs that were court side at the game may have been greater. LOL to Hollywood.
* Hair: braided top and clipped for front “puff”. Pulled rest of hair into a tight pony. Rubber band tip if you have thick hair and want it to stay tight: Use two, wrapping at the same time but after two wraps, separate one and wrap a single band one last time. Hopefully that makes sense because it’s the only thing that keeps my pony up!

Oooh, that hair… I’m always on the quest for the perfect pouf, particularly with a pony (howabout that alliteration ;)), but my fine ‘do gives me a hard time… trying again tomorrow…

What a cool t-shirt! I didn’t know Lamar Odom has a clothing line. Yeah, the laker game was a big disappointment last night, but I hope they make a comeback on Tues.

As always, you look fantastic! Your thoughts on being self-employed really caught my attention. Right now I’m asking myself some of the same questions…and you’re right about there being something nice in having a bit of a schedule.

LOVE IT!!!!
Sooo nice that you have been on vacation and got to be in holiday mode. I know what you mean though, it IS nice to have a ‘purpose’ and get out of the house and travel to somewhere (ie. work) … only after a while of being at home though 😉

I use my Speedy literally almost every day, it really does go with everything!

Cool outfit, it really caught my eye. I’ve never been to LA, but I don’t think I could live in a city with no public transport, I hate driving!! I’m a total homebody too 😉 I like having somewhere to go everyday but every so often I just wish I had a weekday to do whatever I wanted. Weekdays are somehow so much cooler to do stuff than weekends, don’t you think?
Lynzy
I’m currently saving for a speedy 🙂
Loving the braid

知道他有了外遇
面對他的低聲下氣妳冷嘲熱諷、無理取鬧
妳瘋狂似的大吵大鬧
甚至到他的公司去亂、向他的親友抱怨、向鄰居們哭訴…
妳把他的外遇鬧的人盡皆知
最後，妳把他的愧疚消耗殆盡…
最後，妳把他想要回頭的念頭打消…
最後，妳自己把他推向外遇的第三者身邊…

you are so right about the traffic here. not only do i have to deal with the traffic but i come home and drive around for an hour trying to find a parking spot. i am also a homebody and usually need a really good reason to get out. i feel your pain. good luck going back to work.
anyway…. i love your blog—you are such an inspiration and totally rock the diy’s and all of your creations. love.

Speedy rabbit’s foot! Love that.
I, too, have the Speedy-envy. I have a couple of other Louies, but have ALWAYS wanted the Speedy.
Every time I see yours I do a quick look on Ebay just to talk myself out of it.
