don’t tell anyone! bosco bakery cafe, is a hidden gem inside the koreatown plaza. it’s modern design & glowing cases, house the most beautiful little cakes. i dropped by for the mini ham & cheese croissants, vegetable pies, & strong coffee. 

although i can’t read the captions, i sure do enjoy the fashion spreads in their version of vogue girl from the korean book center…

erin’s collections always have the lady-like feel, that forever appeals to me. classic cuts, retro aesthetic, black & white. perfection. i’m trying to weed through blogs, fashion sites, & magazines, regarding fashion week. so much beautiful content, that my picture folders might explode! the weather in los angeles, is unbelievable & i couldn’t be more content laying around at griffith park, taking afternoon walks through hancock park, & slurping as many iced coffees as one can hold. fall is only weeks away…

art in the streets, jacks n joe los angeles, lemonade cafe, lemonade la, moca los angeles, monicais, take a bao, the flying pig truck

i’ve had a few relaxing days off & it’s always nice to explore la again. sometimes when you live in a city, (even if it’s abundant with it’s offerings) life can get very consuming. being in a driving city, you often forget to just walk & “get lost in it”. it truly is a priviledge to eat & live here…xo

just a few shots, {moca museum, jacks n joe, lemonade cafe , take a bao, the flying pig truck}

cafe gratitude, cafe gratitude la, cafe gratitude larchmont, monicais, neon nails

 during the hot summer months, i like fresh & light meals. so, after hearing such good things from customers & friends i decided to give cafe gratitude a try. known for great vegetarian fare & a chill atmosphere, i was impressed with the quality & yummy portions of everything we ate! ps the sangria was divine…it is a must!

cast of vices, cast of vices bag, cov corner store shopping bag, monicais, royal t cast of vices

earlier this week, i attended royal t’s recent art show & caught a glimpse of these clever shopping bags in their gift shop. cast of vices took something so simple, such as the typical “market” bag & transformed it into a buttery, soft handbag. needless to say, i will have to have this at some point. it’s silly enough to add a touch of whimsy, but super practical for all my day to day needs!

coffee bar los angeles, coffeebar la, coffeebar spring street, monicais

i finally had a chance to visit coffeebar la, this weekend in downtown la. it was on my top 5 things to do this month & this beautiful place didn’t disappoint. vast & airy, it’s the perfect place for an invigorating cup of artisanal coffee. not only do they serve top notch blends & delicious treats, it has a great patio area essential for people watching & surfing the web. i’m beyond happy, this place is in my neck of the woods.
