Another year, another Lolla. I have a love/hate relationship with it myself. I’m sure that’s true for many. But hey, where else can you see an endless number of bands in a matter of 3 days? Here are a few things I learned about the festival.Let’s start with the etymology of the word. Lollapalooza (lä-lə-pə-ˈlü-zə)…

cheers to a frothy Fourth!

Happy Fourth of July, y’all! Wrap yourself in an American flag, guzzle down a good brew, and watch the fireworks roar. This year, I’m celebrating in Sea Isle. Sun and sand make everything better. If you’re up to seeing a few of my other patriotic posts, take a look at this crafty gif and this…

oh the terrifying and the extraordinary flying through the sky kinda fun!

Well lookout for the craziest zipline/obstacle course ever, smack dab in the middle of Outer Banks in North Carolina. From shimmying across ropes, to jumping from one barrel to another, to kayaking in the air, endurance and strength is put to the ultimate test. It was excruciatingly fun and terrifying, and I’d do it again…

Oh man, oh man! Take me back to Outer Banks with bike rides ‘o plenty! Nike Flex on the feet make me happy. And so do Gap sports bras.

Check out this cool Nike sports bra I got the other day! It zips! I paired it with a sweater top from Target, Gianni Bini skirt, Sky High Dunks, and Google Eyes. It’s a great outfit for a stroll in Wicker Park or the Bastille concert I went to that night. (which was awesome, by…

Well friends, it’s Monday again. The skies are grey and my spirit is blue. Drawing is usually a good way to alleviate my tension. Here are a few abstract sneaker illustrations I doodled with Prismacolors. It’s cool to see my favorite shoes made up of nothing more than triangles. Anyways, triangles are huge right…

sunless Seattle

Last week I went to Seattle for a couple of days. What a great city! And what a great place for a night stroll, as long as you stay dry and warm. I wandered around Pike Place Market for a bit. Did you know it opened in 1907? That makes it one of the oldest…

Well my little love bugs, I have some big news… I’m engaged! Can you believe it?! We threw an engagement party the other night with very personalized decorations. The Nike footsteps share a bit of our story. I came from Texas, and he came from Pittsburgh. We met in Chicago and fell in love! I…

So everyone in the continental US seemed to be aware of the horrendous weather last week, that is everyone but the people in California. I spent a few of the worst stormy days in Santa Monica and I was quite convinced there was no better place to be. I must admit, I’ve never been a…
