DIY photo booth and props & Fox Parlor holiday pop-up shop
Last week we had our holiday office party, along with Fox Parlor’s pop-up shop right in our office. Fox Parlor sells all handmade (and adorable) gifts and goods. Don’t even get me started on the baby clothes and shoes—they’re so cute they practically make my womb ache. It was great to get my holiday shopping taken…

No bake hot chocolate mix cookies
The other weekend Omied and I were enjoying a quiet Saturday night, cozied up, ready to watch a movie while it was pouring outside. The one thing we were missing? A sugary treat! The only thing we had on hand were some Healthy Choice fudgsicles in the freezer. Ew. I decided I needed to whip…

Oh, and for October’s Instagram post, someone (who I don’t know personally) left me a comment saying that my monthly recap Instagram posts are their favorite, which I thought was very sweet, so I’m putting a little more effort into…

On the rocks
I’m the first to admit, these booties are a bit on the crazy side. And that’s why I love them! They punch up any outfit. I paired them with a chunky, oversize sweater, and added some teal accessories to accentuate that pop of color. I put this outfit together while I was visiting my parents…

Fashion looks ~ All the leaves are brown
I’ve finally come to terms with the fact that our Indian Summer was short-lived, and unsatisfactory. It was an upsetting realization, but I felt a little happier when I pulled out my pretty winter coats.

Santa Barbara Trip
Last month I took a trip down to Santa Barbara with some of my friends from grad school. One of them is getting his PhD at UCSB, so we used it as an excuse to reunite in paradise. I’d never been, and it was absolutely gorgeous. Some day when I retire filthy rich, it’ll be…

Fashion Looks ~ Teal Appeal
UNIQLO recently opened a store in SF, touting itself as the “Japanese H&M,” and it was kind of a big deal. There was a blimp and everything. I went to check it out, and they had me at, “Hello, $20 brightly colored pants.” Sold! I got these teal ones, but could easily end up with…
