monica is…a savage! rarr!

after browsing sam edelman’s website, i have savagely fallen in love with these animal prints. paired with a cute sundress or sassy short shorts, who could resist these “creatures”?

speaking of animals, check out this little toy chest that was left behind. one of my mom’s apartment tenants left this sweet little treasure behind, which of course i gave a new home…

Is summer here yet?

Perhaps, I’m just incredibly impatient. Summer needs to be here pronto! I’m generally a winter person, who loves the chill & any excuse to wear a coat in LA. Yet there’s nothing better than the ease of warm breezes, sunsets at 8pm, & carefree  days. As the weather improves, I can’t help but seize moments & capture little snapshots of some favorite places. Some of these textures make me yearn for pops of color & gleaming metallic, ideal for my new summer staples…let the summer wish list begin!

nothing more relaxing than water rippling

Can I please have this?

Omg, I want this…saw this while websurfing through Shopbop. I guess, I have become sort of obsessed with bows lately & who can help it? Bows are everywhere this spring, but this wallet makes me soo giddy. The lining is unmistakably Marc Jacobs; colorful & bold. I could totally see myself carrying this little plum treasure & enjoy shopping just a tad more when grabbing my debit card…xo

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…
