Sunday Brunch

Took these photos while out on a brunch adventure last Sunday. I finally made the journey to Gjelina, and I'm so glad I did. The food was fantastic, and so was the people-watching. A weekend brunch is one of my favorite occasions to get a little glamorous--with nothing on the agenda besides a decadent feast, it just feels right. 

Happy Thanksgiving!

West Side Story

Wearing what is probably my favorite vintage find ever, this 1940's minidress. For some reason, the print and silhouette completely remind me of the Puerto Rican vibe of West Side Story.

I'm currently working my way through one of my summer resolutions--to try 10 new Los Angeles restaurants. On this particular evening, we dined at #3, La Loteria Mexican Grill. So far we've also tried out Cha Cha Chicken (Venice)--the best Carribean food ever--and The Belmont (West Hollywood) whose Mint Teajito is the best drink I've ever had. All three places are must-visits! 

My weekend, besides trying out two new restaurants, consisted of taking the leap from my blackberry to an iphone (the verdict: I'm obsessed), shopping with my dad for some cool new duds on father's day, taking some much-needed naps, and seeing Beginners, which I loved. 

How was your weekend?
