Day one into my LA trip- I have already realized finding an apartment isn’t as easy as it sounds. How do you LA people do it, the places are SOO small. The one place I thought that sounded the best was already rented by the time I got there (30 mins early too)

However, that very place happened to be steps away from Melrose- so I went for some retail Therapy. First stop was Lotta Stensson, which has wonderful customer service by the way. So many cute accessories there it was so hard to choose. I ended up purchasing this massive gold cuff- and regret not picking up this little perfume that smelled so nice.
After hitting Fred Segal, Ron Herman, and many others; I wandered around looking for more places to live- all a bust. So more therapy was needed. Went to the (over hyped- sorry LA Ladies) Beverly Center to shop around, pretty successful trip. I went some store called Image which I am sure is the equivelent to something pretty crappy in DC- but ignorance is bliss. I found a cute little kimono dress for $40.

Then came the icing on the cake- the store visit that lifted my spirits. Momoberry by Sanrio. Its Hello Kitty all grown up. I was like a kid in a candy story. I even made my own fragrance (yep they have a fragrance bar, the next best thing to a real bar) And guess what my scent is called? Fashion Kitty. And its all mine (cue the insane laugher)

Hey everyone. After a torturous flight (women everywhere lost their make-up due to this airport debacle) and a very long evening I am finally in Los Angeles. Weekend trip- I need to find an apartment. BUT I am sure (I know) there will be plenty of time for shopping. I will be sure to keep you in the loop on whatever I buy or whoever I see. Later Kitties!

I would buy the Chloe Mini Padlock Keychain at Neimans. Sure it seems very foolish to spend $180 on a key chain (because it is- unless you’re loaded) But it won’t stop me from liking this…
What do you all think? Total waste of money? Or would you buy it if you had $180 to toss?

It would look like this….
I just couldn’t resist sticking this adorable little picture up on the blog. Look at that face. I want a dog when I move to LA- after all I will be a single girl in a new city, I will need a little friend. And yes, I would be one of those ass clowns thats dresses up her dog. Speaking of Nordstrom’s BP department (www.nordstrom.com) now sells doggie clothes. Ruuufff!

Time for another installment of Have you seen this Crap? Seems like every time I flip on the Style Network (formerly my favorite television channel) frickin’ Instant Beauty pageant is on.

Here’s the premise- 2 annoying television personalities go into a mall or the street (wherever shopping occurs) and grabs regular chicks to participate in a beauty pageant. So they give these schmos $500 to shop for a swimsuit competition outfit, and an evening outfit. Then the girls go ont0 the mall stage and show off their “talent” (NONE of them are talented) and the winners get some lame crown and a vacation.

So Have you seen this Crap? What do you think? I think it stinks and Style needs some new shows.

Any regular reader knows I am totally on a bracelet kick, I am channeling my ex candy rave days (I sure hope not- plastic bracelets all up my arms), or perhaps its the fact that my real diamond necklace doesn’t want to be cluttered with costume jewelry so I am leaving that to my arms…. Whatever it may be, I love them and can’t get enough arm candy.

I love this bracelet from Kitson, the price not so much ($345) I managed to find the look for less right next door at Glam.com ( I clicked that little picture of Miss Lohan and off I went) and check it out its only $100 and I like it better.

While reading Ebelle5 I saw a posting about this little LV bag. I need it! Well need is a strong word, I want it bad. I don’t even get into logo style stuff, but this is soooo cute. I can put my pink digital camera in it, or I can put my phone and some money in it. Its just damn cute and I will think of something to do with it. Get on www.eluxury.com

I am of course, a fashionista. I do chose to spend ridiculous amounts of money on things other than food, cars, and other practical items. But I have never spent over $1,000 on one article of clothing… BUT if I had $1,328.00 to careless toss out the window; I would want this Matthew Williamson top.


It is gorgeous! I don’t quite understand why it cost so much- maybe if I saw it in person I would know. BUT I doubt it. Unless this thing is woven with Mother Theresa’s hair, I can’t find one excuse to spend that kind of money on it.

So sorry I haven’t been updating much, I do have an day job ya know 🙂 I am busy covering the X Games. If you care to check out some skate, bmx, and fmx action go here… Lat34.com

“Calorie Free Chocolate”, okay maybe I mislead you a bit. Last night on a trip CVS to pick up a case of sugar free Red Bull; I breezed by the cosmetic isle and tossed some M&M’s Lip Smackers in the basket. I haven’t bought Lip Smackers since elementary school- but felt compelled to buy a pack last night. This stuff is good! Chocolate scented (and I suppose flavored lipgloss) delicious. I will never need to eat chocolate again.
