* snapped two hearts draped over a wire up above

Week in Review

The weeks really do fly by, don't they? The weather was unbelievable this past weekend, and I definitely managed to soak up the sun as much as possible. Hope you all had a great week as well! This week I...

Week in Review

I decided to revive my "Week in Review" post, starting today! I will post them on the weekends, so make sure to check back to see what I have been up to, and what I have come across {hipstamatic style} during the week. These past few weeks I have...

* spotted an orange, awesomely detailed door on a church

* in love with the Love cups at Starbucks

* contemplated sparkly minis at All Saints

* laughed at the giant cart of oranges at Whole Foods

Week In Review

I came to the realization that when you fly across the country for just two days {and factor in a three hour difference} time appears to move in super speed, causing the minutes, hours, and days to fly by leaving you with a feeling like none of it ever happened at all. This week I...

* Flew back to New York for a job interview

* Took in the colorful art installations in my old hood, the East Village

* Reveled in the beauty and decor of Grand Central Station

* Viewed the Missoni collection at Target- love the tights

* Browsed the pristine collection of magazines at JFK

* Continued to "Make it Happen" on more than one level

* Finally got around to eating at In-N-Out

* Continued to be a giant tourist, snapping photos all around SF

Week In Review

Ok, seriously, where did this week go? I finally got back on track with a few creative projects that I have been wanting to do forever, but never seemed to find the time. I bought some fabric to patch up an Isabel Marant jacket that I got at a sample sale with a giant square cut out of the back {oh, the shame!}, and I bought patches to stitch up the holes on the elbows of my

favorite sweater. I also...

* Went to a beach that reminded me so much of The Goonies that I thought One-Eyed Willie's ship was going to cruise by at any moment

* Found so many beautiful shells and stones {at said beach}

* Had a name bracelet made for myself on the street for five bucks

* Met up with my old roomie for a Tuesday afternoon recap in the park

* Made two simple, yet perfect, bracelets- one for myself, one for my sister

* Fell in love with the Golden Gate Bridge display with Rice-A-Roni boxes at Anthropologie
