Not the best lighting or picture but it's the only one we got of us that evening. Justin and I attended the second annual Art Silicon Valley San Francisco (Art SV/SF) event on Thursday night during their VIP preview event. The event runs this Friday through Sunday (October 8-11th) at the San Mateo Event Center. Thanks to one of their main sponsors, the Four Seasons Silicon Valley, for the Platinum VIP experience!

Top Ramen Grilled Cheese Sandwich
I saw this recipe on Tablespoon for a top ramen grilled cheese sandwich and it sounded so out there and good that I had to try making it for Justin and I.

Not because I am depressed or have ever battled ... Read more...
Dressing Room Diaries

I love fashion, and I love sharing fashion with you through my outfit posts and trips to New York Fashion Week. But today I wanted to change it up from my usual outfit post, or current home DIY project, since that's been my main focus these days being a home owner and all, to share with you some things I have been thinking about lately. I think there's a huge misconception out there about fashion bloggers. We must ... Read more...
