Round 2.

Here we go again with bar prep. Sometimes I wonder how I will handle prepping for the bar and work again. Especially because stats just confirmed CA as the hardest bar in the nation. The state I just passed, IL, is #32. That's 31 spots I have to successfully jump. This is no small feat.

Add managing 3 externs and making sure everything goes smooth at work... I think my word of the summer is going to be BREATHE.

No matter how tough it will be, I know it is the right decision. I will have to take the bar if I ever want to get back to California. So... I might as well do it while all the info is fresher in my memory.

Wish me luck. 

Music Monday: Pretty Lights.

Just a little sample from the new Pretty Lights. If you don't know of or have never seen Pretty Lights live, then you need to change that. Need to.

Swell Faves.

Just a few of my faves from the most recent Swell catalog.











What can I say? You can take the girl out of the surf shop but you can't take the surf shop out of the girl...

One Year.

Today marks the first anniversary of my moving 3/4 across the country to this place by myself.



It has been an amazing year. One in which I've learned so much about life and myself. I can't wait to see what the next year has in store... Hopefully it will be a shorter winter. (It was in the 40s this week.)

I Have Never Been So Excited For Thanksgiving To Come.

A Good Gold One.

I have an amazing silver cuff... Just needed a good gold one.

Enter today's Lucky Magazine's Steal of the Day.




For $27.50. Done.

Copy Cat.

You know those people that are just effortlessly cool? The ones who always pull off a look, look put put together, are always ahead of the trend. One of my friends from high school is one of those people. Good news, she works in the fashion industry and is spreading the good style.

So, I mention this because I totally just copied/was inspired by her. Saw a pic of her wearing this and she shared the wealth with wear I could get it.



Ordered in less than 5 minutes flat. I think that's a record.
