“The way to measure your progress is backward against where you started, not against your ideal.” – DAN S U L L I V AN I’m a notorious idealist. I tend to set my eyes on lofty goals and choose to see life through an idealistic lens. It wasn’t until recently that I realized this might actually be setting me back versus helping me attain those goals. So let’s break down progress and success on […]

“People who love to eat are always the best people.” – JULIA C H I L D Guys, it’s National Donut Day. Boom. The day is officially upon us and I’m patiently waiting for LA to begin the next installment of the Museum of Ice Cream, feat. these golden lifesavers. In the meantime, I figured I’d do a quick round up of my top 5 spots to grab the classic bite in Los Angeles based on my own personal experiences. In case […]

“From a small seed a mighty trunk may grow.”  – A E S C H Y L U S Ever since I could remember, I’ve been visualizing. As a young girl in elementary school, I used to be the last person to finish reading. I blame my creative mind, which would wander to exciting places mid-sentence (side note: still happens). The only spot I truly loved was the art room – probably because it was the only place […]

“The things we reject tend to be colored by fear. Those grown from love will flourish.” – MORGAN R Y A N I took a deep breath in as I observed my surroundings. What a sight Los Angeles has become. Before the rainfall, this city had lost a bit of its luster in my honest opinion. Now I feel as though I’m experiencing one of the most beautiful moments since I first moved to California. I had to […]

“Well-behaved women rarely make history.” -LAUREL T H A T C H E R ULRICH January in Los Angeles this year could be best described as a monsoon. Okay, maybe that’s a little hyperbolized. Nevertheless, we’ve had uncharacteristic amounts of rain this month. With our current drought-ridden situation, we’re quite consoled by the rainfall. As a result, LA has been refreshed with greenery resembling the Pantone color of the year. (Well-played M. Nature). For instance, this week it’s rained 5 out […]

I ascend in delight where the heaviness looms, and spirits they lift atop a misty cliff An inverted fog you engulf me in, a view so unclear as I watch you disappear In the golden valley below the skies open up, to taste your sweet tear oh, the melody I’ll hear I followed where you led upon water cast thy bread, a vision crystal clear, in the reflections of my fear Waited a long time to have you by […]

“Life is what happens to you while you’re busy making other plans.” – JOHN L E N N O N It was a cool October evening in Los Angeles — not quite summer, not quite fall. The sun began to dip behind the industrial buildings that lined the streets of Downtown. As it transitioned from day to night, I began to contemplate the irony of my day ‘on-set.’ I use the term loosely as I tend to shoot with other […]

Follow my blog with Bloglovin “When you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you achieve it.” – THE A L C H E M I S T This story is simple but special. When I first moved to Los Angeles, I was constantly enamored by this particular structure. Nestled discreetly between shops on Sunset Blvd. stood El Chavo; a lively concoction of Moroccan design meets Havana flair. Earlier this month, the Mexican restaurant with the mean […]
