lazy lazy






some weekends are made for flip flops...throwing on a white t-shirt and calling it a day. even in the laziest of days, slapping on a multitude of bracelets (and not to mention my favorite watch), and camo pants makes all the difference. 

lounge






a constant scratch-in-head moment for me is how to make lounge wear look remotely chic. a simple and quick way answer is by making the ever-so-easy turban: grab any scarf (or clothing material for that matter), and wrap it around your head. it's literally that easy. throw on a wrap/sweater and you're good to go. and because i'm not one to wear any sort of heel/platform with a bikini, i always resort to my ever faithful havaianas.

los angeles is all smiles as half the city joyfully flees to the desert for weekend one of coachella.







plagues and pleasures of the salton sea









the breakdown on the salton sea : holy lord does it smell foul and look like a nuclear bomb hit bringing all the dead fish out to shore. 
the sea was created by a flood in 1905, in which water from the colorado river flowed into the area. since then, the level of saline has risen so high that it cannot support many aquatic life - the result being sand made up of dead fish scales and a shore completely covered by death. 
one would think that in the middle of the desert, this oasis would provide an ideal tourist spot. and yet it's "one of the country's worst ecological disasters"...

scolding tracks









life is a train of moods like a string of beads; 
and as we pass through them they prove to be many colored lenses, which paint the world their own hue, 
and each shows us only what lies in its own focus.

nothing like standing on some scolding hot train tracks in the middle of the desert. the conductor did honk at me when i waved the arm motion for him to do so. 
success!
