Memo 186: The Wild Wild West

To: All

From: Me

Date: June 4, 2015

Subject: Western Vibes

__________________________________________________________________________________

Yup, I definitely live in the west in the middle of a desert. Real life story. If you would have told me 10 years ago that I would be living in Arizona, I may have cackled directly in your face! Literally, there's a saloon a few miles away from my house. A. Saloon.

Isn't life and where it takes you absolutely absurd?! Yes, it is but on the look...

So, apparently, the 70s called and they wanted to make a reappearance in 2015. I answered and welcomed them back with open arms. Re-introducing 70's Desert Chic.

Memo 179: Paris Is Always a Good Idea

To: All

From: Me

Date: April 15, 2015

Subject: The Layover Visit

__________________________________________________________________________________

11 Hour Layover in Paris? Why not.

Note to self: Check the weather, first. Again, CHECK THE WEATHER. Where I was coming from (Arizona) and where I was going (Johannesburg, South Africa) the weather was perfection featuring sunshine with temps in 70s and 80s. However, my dear sweet Paris was on it's own program with 50 degrees accompanied by temperamental and sporadic gusts of wind. Why Jesus?

Sipping on expresso at La Coincidence

But the show must go on. For the first stop, we went to meet my friend at her beau's restaurants, La Coincidence at 15 Rue Mesnil. Who am I?! I have a friend who with a boo that owns a restaurant in Paris #WhatIsMyLifeAbout.

My friend with the boo who owns the restaurant. I like to capture the more candid moments #ShesProbablyGoingToKillMe

The next stop was to Colette Paris. I don't shop here, I just dream, wish, hope and pray here. I call it the Urban Outfitters elevated to the 2nd power. I visit Colette to window show and toss pennies into the air and make wishes upon my favorite pieces.
