Birthdays are always a big deal
There is something uneasy about a birthday that passes by, the stars align, and life could not be more perfect. I have a job with endless opportunities and never-ending learning opportunities, I recently moved in with the love of my life, my family lives close enough to visit at any-time I please, and I live 3 blocks from the beach in Santa Monica!!
I hate to be pessimistic, but I feel like things are going too good. Like somehow I don't deserve all of this, and that at any moment someone will realize my mistaken good fortune and will take it all back.
But, what can I do other than revel in it while i'm on cloud 9. Let's just say 'I hope I never come down'.
Here's to 26. May it be the best year yet and good fortune staying on my side.. for as long as it can!

The Midi-Ring
I cannot decide if I will fully adopt the midi-ring (mainly because of my job i.e. typing all day on a computer + Midi Rings= Annoying). BUT everyone I see with them I am kind of obsessed. Basically I have dozens in my shopping cart in a variety of my favorite stores right now.. but I just cannot decide on which one!
Here is a snap shot of my shopping cart favorites:
Have you adopted the trend?

RWB (Red White & Blue)
Pool time, and Kayaking in Marina del Rey are my set plans for the 4th, so I had to pick the perfect bathing suit/hat combo for the day that were functional, comfortable and kept my face out of the sun!

Mission Impossible: Find the Perfect Dress
Piperlime |
I'm now finding myself on the impossible mission of finding a dress that is both wedding guest appropriate, not too expensive and fits like a glove. (I do not feel like spending a bunch in tailoring!)

To Felt or Not to Felt....
Finding the perfect summer hat is always a difficult
challenge, but for me in particular it is a huge step out of the box, because I’m really not much of a hat person. I really only have
one knitted cap that I wear to the snow, and even then, I only pull it on if my
ears cannot take the cold for one second more.
With my recent move closer to the beach though, I am
making a commitment to soak up the sandy paradise while it is only 3 blocks
away. I mean…I moved closer to the beach for a reason, right? So now that it is
warming up, sun here I come!
Now comes the “becoming an adult” part of enjoying the sun I
have to adjust to. Dreaded sun damage!! Wrinkles, sunspots and leathery skin
are three things I want to avoid in my later years, and as I am already seeing
premature wrinkling (my moms esthetician says its because I’m "too expressive" with my forehead… lame), a big floppy hat is the best way to minimize those
dreaded sun related aging issues.
Now the true question: To felt or not to felt? With the
likelihood that water will somehow sneak its way onto this summer hat, I am
worried a felt hat may not be the best alternative. But straw hats cannot be
easily rolled and packed into a beach tote.
Decisions decisions... what would you recommend?
