saving daylight

♪♬♪ Cold Cave - Love Comes Close 

Did we save an hour or lose an hour? I really hate having to transition forward or backward 60 minutes. From what I understand we adjust the time to "save energy"...




Coincidentally I found an empty parking lot whose wall color matched what I was wearing.



I bought these glasses in some random thrift shop in downtown for only $9. I hope my optometrist can swap the lenses. This weekend I discovered new delicious coffee, dessert waffles at 11pm, tangerine mojitos and kurtosh bread. I love LA.


After reading about the American Apparel nail polish on Lisa's Likes, I knew I had to get some for myself. I suggest all you dears do the same! All the colors are spring friendly and paint on smoothly and bright. The colors I picked up were Rose Bowl, Pinto and Mouse.



1. Lots of tape, 2. Japanese Masking Tape, 3. Japanese kawaii ECO tape - Blue Polka Dots, 4. East to label and easy to remove, 5. MT masking tape by Kamoi Kakoshi Co. Ltd, 6. wrapped beautifully, 7. japanese masking tapes, 8. Limited Edition Liberty Masking Tape, 9. happytape: japanese masking tape package gift wrap, 10. MT masking tape by Kamoi Kakoshi Co. Ltd, 11. invitation making party!, 12. prints + tapes

I have been purchasing a lot of supplies for assembling packages. During of which I've acquired quite a liking for Japanese masking tape. I have so many ideas and can't wait to see how it all comes out.

P.S. Thank you everyone who takes time to visit my blog and leave such warm comments. Blogging is not my life, but a canvas for me to share things that I am passionate about, like an artist with a paintbrush. I thank you for letting me share a piece of my heart with you all.

  4. I miss socal!! THE FOOD!! THE SHOPPING!! THE WEATHER!!! I'm jealous. {*LMAO}

    Your outfit is totally cute. I really love the shoes. The color is eye catching. I can't wait to see what you make with your new goodies. =]

    I'd love to meet up! I love making new friends. Have you been to SF before? The weather today was FAB! Well I wasn't in the City but I heard it was great from my friends and the weather was so nice here in the East Bay. If I wore what you wore today in Norcal any other day, I'd freeze my a$$ off.

    I know exactly what you mean when you say watching Gossip Girl online is not the same. You're not as into it and the commercial ads online piss me off even more than the ones on TV.

  35. such cute photos! and thanks for your comment on my blog - I'd recommend the holga just because I have one! Get the one that you can do multiple exposures and have a flash with... I don't know the model number but it should say on the box. But I also know a girl that has a diana and she likes it too! So I say go with the one that speaks to you the most.

    =)
