Welp. I can now officially check “attending a lesbian wedding, held at an Indian restaurant, filled with Filipino and Estonian family members” off my bucket list as of today… I’m not sure I would have put any two parts of that together before today, but that’s kind of the beauty of being in a place...

Orange Lips
My favorite accessory for many years now has been lipstick; mostly any and all shades of red to be exact. I have an entire drawer in my bathroom that is dedicated to my lipstick/lipgloss collection… It’s kind of disgusting I know, but every time I open that drawer and see all those tubes I...
10 Things to Do With Your Parents In LA
So your parents are coming to visit you in LA… ah. LA isn’t exactly as safe, quaint, and quiet as home… and you can’t just keep them in your apartment away from the world outside… I mean its not like you’re embarrassed of LA… but these aren’t your friends you can just take to...
Guest Post: WWMD (What Would Michelle Do)
Dating in LA, dating in general for that matter, ain’t easy and can be down right depressing. “Guys never approach me… I had another bad Ok Cupid date… he doesn’t want to commit… everyone is dating someone but me…” I get it, I’ve been known to say such things, but I’ve always felt slightly more...
Andiamo : Hostaria Del Piccolo, Santa Monica
I love Italians, I love Italy, and dammit I love their food. Have you actually ever met anyone that’s said “eh, I just don’t like Italian food?” … no because it’s obviously impossible. Carbs, sauces, more carbs, and wine? It’d be a terrible thing depriving your taste buds of these things. I’ve actually had...
Picnic at the Hollywood Bowl. You Have To.
“WE CAN BRING FOOD AND WINE TO THE SHOW!” goes down in history as one of the happiest texts I’ll ever receive. It’s like Christmas morning when I find out I have tickets to one of the shows at the bowl where picnicking is allowed. I don’t know why I get so confused with which...
Summer Send Off With A Brunch
If you didn’t know we love brunch here in Los Angeles. That goes for day drinking too so put them together and thats what we call a successful start to Saturday and/or Sunday. Most of our jobs lead us to bars when our day/weeks are over, we hardly need excuses to (day) drink as its...
Gimme Plaid. Gimme ALL OF IT.
I’ve always been a big fan of plaid, I’ve been buying mens plaid shirts at Urban Outfitters, among other places, for as long as I can remember. Sadly plaid hasn’t always been synonymous with fashion forward. Even I have to admit I’ve mostly been finding plaid items where I think, “why couldn’t this just...
The First Tale from the LA Underground : My “Only In LA Story”
I’ve discovered living here that all of us LA residents, and even a fair amount of visitors have what I like to call an “LA Story”. Weird, crazy, awesome, ridiculous, and/or terrifying crap happens here, all day everyday, and sometimes we’re fortunate (or unfortunate) enough to run into some of these “did that really just...
