RANDOM PICTURES FROM LA
This would be my last day in Los Angeles, tomorrow afternoon my mom and I are flying to Tokyo. I'm sooo tired from running around LA for three days.
We're staying in Santa Monica-am very happy to see a beach. We have a great view at the restaurant at the top of our hotel.



One of my favorite stops here in LA was at Maxfield.

I love the sculptures outside the store.



Really windy and kinda chilly in LA this weekend.
Hence the dumb poses in these pictures! Wearing thrifted vintage leather shorts, YSL cage heels, Lillith blouse, and Prada bag.

Carol fondling my mom's Natalia Brilli leather-covered amp chord.
Kinda looks like she has my mom on a leash. Not a bad idea considering some of her antics here in LA ;)
My mom (and I) are in love with her yellow Margiela clutch.

The Nolex by Natalia Brilli and her usual Omega Seamaster watch.

Hanging out at Betsey Johnson while my sister tried on some v. cute dresses.
We had a nice lunch at Sur on Monday.



The whole time we were here my younger sister wouldn't let me take her picture-she had all these cute outfits on, but she'd pull some weirdo face like this whenever the camera came out. What a jerk! Hahaha.
when we were driving around we kept seeing this poster for a new Jack Black movie and me, my mom, and my dad all agreed that Carol's crazy facial expressions made her look like Jack Black's would-be, could-be daughter.
I did get one normal picture of her though-so pretty when she doesn't stick her tongue out at me ;) that isn't to say I don't love the pictures I get of her funny faces.

I didn't bring my camera out today but I was very happy to see Lucrecia (of Fashion is Poison)-had so much fun.
About to fall asleep at the keyboard at this point-goodnight and next time you hear from me, I'll be in Tokyo!

Hi, was just wondering if you used a DSLR to take your pictures or a normal digital camera? If it's a digital camera, what brand and model is it? It'd help greatly if you could help me with this.
whoa!
i didn't realize how big the statues were!!
and i love all the cement! haha
I love your striped cardigan, up-top, the view from your room, the fries, Maxfields statues and your caged YSL's! :)

Those aboriginal sculptures must be an epiphany calling you out to the oriental side of the world. You might want to visit Mr Dries Van Noten's flagship store there....its like a museum.

Lots of beautiful pics!
Have fun in Tokyo!! :D
ooh you stayed at the huntley?! isn't it such a gorgeous place?
I can imagine you and your mom doing some serious damage at Maxfields ;)
glad u had fun in our neck of the woods...love the cage heels
Love the pictures. There is something about the sun light in LA. Pictures always came out beautifully, most of the time plus with great camera that helps alot:)
I know I'm 23, but will your family please adopt me? So fun and gorgeous!
The shot of just the shoes and the cement is amazing.
was wondering if you would make it to maxfields. unreal, yes?
your moms clutch, yowwwwwwwwwza!
i love your shoes so much! i also really like the leather shorts. they make the blouse less sweet. carol's jacket is really cute. your mom's clutch is so fun! the weather out here has been pretty strange...those french fries look really good :)
y'all are just having all the fun! love seeing your pics. makes me look forward to my next visit to the states...miami...(hello shopping!!)

I was driving by Urth Cafe on Sunday and I totally noticed you walking on the sidewalk, I was like "There is that Texas girl from Sea of Shoes, that's right I remember she was stopping here on her way to Japan." You had your hair up and shredded jeans on, a right-on look for here.
Fun pics! I have been following your blog for at least 6 months and love each post...
Santa Monica is just gorgeous, definitely one of my favorite places to go. (will be returning early spring) There are some nice boutiques and restaurants that are not too far. I love Grill on The Alley best I think...their rice pudding is divine! Hope Carol found some cute things at Betsy Johnson - had they had some adorable dresses and cardis - I particularly loved the posh cream and black cardi with the lady's face illustrated on the back!
Hope you had a chance to rest up and have a great flight to Tokyo! I can't wait to see your next post~
LOVE Carol's necklace!!!!!!! Where did she get it?
By the way, does she have a blog??
Lovely pics of you and your mom as well!
Have a great trip!
You have such an adorable family! Ahh, I'm jealous. You are super lucky, woman!
beautiful outfit! i love the sculptures, very interesting, and your moms clutch is awesome... so versatile.

Hi Jane, i am glad to see that you have had a good time throughout the trip. You all seemed to have a great time despite the tiredness. Love your YSL shoes, your mom's clutch, Carol's smile. ;) Take care!
hello, i have been wondering what camera you use for these shots. if u could let me know thatd be great
Your eyes are absolutely gorgeous and I love your sister's jacket!
Have an amazing trip!
Where did your sister get that blazer? And if it wasn't from a store that mass-produces them, where do you recommend I find one? It's fabulous! I love your style but I'm kind of addicted to the whole menswear thing.
you didn't comment on what brand your cardigan is from the first pic and it's to die for...i want it. would you mind adding where it's from?
thanks much
great post. have a safe flight to tokyo. can't wait to see what fabulous finds await u there.
