Dinner for Vee's 24th Bday
Enjoyed good food and good company @ Animal with Vee. Food was a bit rich but was definitely worth the experience. Vee and I decided to share appetizers all the way so that we could try more plates. Definitely a good idea to go with the appetizers. My favorite dish was the Hamachi Tostada (pictured first). It was light, flavorful and slightly tangy.
I definitely ate enough sodium to last me the entire week. Going with simple and clean foods until next week. Gotta give my stomach a breather.
Hamachi Tostada (looks a little disheveled b/c I forgot I had my camera and just started digging in until Vee reminded me that I should take a picture)
Lamb Meatballs - quite tender
Marrow Bone on Toast - Second favorite dish. I love the texture of marrow...the taste went really well with the pesto.
Sweetbread with Creamed Spinach - Texture was a mix between bread and chicken...bricken? chread?
Ribs with Salad - My least favorite dish...maybe b/c it was served last and I was already full
Chocolate Bar with Bacon Bits - You heard right. The bacon was like the nutty component of the dessert. It provided a salty and crunchy side to the rich and sweet chocolate.
Mouth is watering...........................................Random Tangent
It's always when I'm the midst of writing papers that I lose track of focus and start doing other things...like eating... and playing dress up. Now is it terribly bad that I'm losing precious time at 1am and fashioning myself in random clothes to create a totally funky outfit? I don't think so. Maybe it'll help the flow of my creative juices. Had fun while it lasted. Please disregard MESSY MESSY room.
Q. Is it bad to wear two shades of brown at the same time? Is that not kosher?
Oh well, I did it anyway.
Brown Vera Wang sweater, Blue scarf from India (gift), Beige A|X belt, Green skirt from Urban Outfitters and Brown suede Balenciaga pumps
Same sweater, Forever 21 tights (yeaaa baby) and same shoes
wow, that killed 30 minutes of my life and was worth every minute.

Theory Fashion Insider Looks
Theory recently re-launched their website to include an e-commerce boutique and different "looks" by 17 stylists. My favorites were the looks that incorporated some slouchy-ness and stuff from the boyfriend's closet. I want them all!
There were a couple looks for guys that I really liked. I am really digging the folded pants, highwater look. If I tried to get my brother to wear these clothes, he would probably get mad at me for making him look too metro.
I love the clean and simple lines of Theory. I really like the direction they're going with marketing....now if only they'll lower their prices.

Angel's Flight
Went to Angel's Flight in Downtown L.A. for a photo session. Took a ride on Angel's Flight which re-opened a couple months ago for only $0.25 one-way. Here are some pictures I wanted to share.
Angel's Flight finally in action
Looking at the top
Interesting detail in the car
On the way back down...another $0.25
It's sorta scary when the cars are passing each other because there's barely any space between the cars. It's like driving on 110 between two freight trucks...
View from the top of the hill
I loved how the light was shining through the trees and focusing on the bench. So beautiful.
