Monica is…searching for owls.

Upon a recent visit to The Grove’s Anthropologie, I was so charmed by the current table setting. It was covered with beautiful colored glassware & plants that looked like they had been plucked out of a green house, but the owl theme was everywhere! I couldn’t help, but comb through Etsy for some owl inspiration of my own. I love all of their handmade goods plus it’s always great to support all of these talented artists! Links provided below…

Monica is…singing in the rain.

It’s chilled a bit in L.A. I’m so excited about wearing sweaters, coats & hoping for a glimmer of rain! Waking up to clouds & cool winds reminds me of hot chocolate, curling up with a good book, & that the holidays are around the corner. Just a few shots of faves for the fall…

Monica is…slackerville USA.

Oh man, sorry for the lack of posts. I’ve been so frustrated with my computer’s incompetence that it has literally deterred me from posting, but I will try to keep up on the things I’ve been musing about. Until I find a bag of money, I will still have to use this one. Ugg. On the bright side, while I was at work staring off into space, this woman came in (who unfortunately was bat shit) with the coolest bag I’ve seen in a while. I tried not to stare at her for too long for fear of looking creepy, but she was walking out & I had to ask who it was by. I can usually tell from a mile away what bag is which, but this one was undistinguishable & I loved that about it.It was faux leather & the hardwear was simple & stylish.  She told me it was Stella McCartney & sadly couldn’t remember anything about that bag, which was disappointing. It meant I had no name in which to search with & combing the internet turned up nothing…oh well.  I hate when that happens! I’m relentless when I get something in my head! Although, I did manage to find a few favorites from Stella McCartney’s Spring 2010 show…so girly & pretty!stellabagnstella11stella2stella3stellaundies1
