Saturday, September 27th, 2008My week was pretty monumental. It’s hard to believe, but spending four days in Vegas changed my life for the better (and didn’t require the cliché vices of gambling, hookers or excessive drinking to be off the charts!)
Gala Darling just made this video of our time in Vegas and it’s pretty awesome! It sums up […]
What I Wore: 9.21.08
Tuesday, September 23rd, 2008On our last night in Vegas, with the long hours of the inspiring Blogworld Expo behind us, Gala and I decided that we needed outfit photos in front of a hotel pool. Except, it was closed!
We made a pact that we were going to push through the doors anyway, tripod and all, even if it […]
The Virgo Birthday Extravaganza: Afterparty Edition!
Wednesday, September 17th, 2008Nubs & The Corn prepare to launch! (Photo by Gilda)
After we’d returned from the Central Park Extravaganza, Gala and I invited some friends including ladybloggers Star, Gilda and Marie back to our room at the Hotel on Rivington. We soon found out that Marie had snuck along a little something extra in her bag…a corn suit!
I’d […]
The Virgo Birthday Extravaganza: 2008
Tuesday, September 16th, 2008Gala Darling and I did our joint birthday celebration / union in Central Park’s Strawberry Fields on Saturday afternoon and it was absolutely magical! I flew to New York overnight without any time to adjust (or sleep) beforehand so it felt very surreal as I ran around the city doing pre-party errands with Star, Marie […]

Striped tunic, Urban Outfitters (2 years ago)

After leaving New York City on Friday morning, I flew straight to Phoenix to spend the weekend with my mom & stepdad. They both relocated there from Oregon about six months ago and this was the first time I […]
The Week In Pictures: 7.11.08
Friday, July 11th, 2008Quite possibly the best sign ever outside of the Marc Jacobs store, NYC
Hello Lovelies,
Please forgive my tardiness in posting; I spent the entire morning in the friendly skies, flying from New York to Phoenix. I am still adjusting to the drastic shift in surroundings and time zone!
This week has been beyond action packed! Normally, I only visit […]
My Top 5 Defining Moments in New York City
Sunday, July 6th, 2008I have a love affair with New York City. Since 2001, it has been my travel destination of choice. Now, on my eighth trip to the city, it’s hard to put my finger on what exactly the allure is. All I know is that the most amazing (and sometimes wacky!) occurrences seem to happen when […]
Puttin’ On the Ritz!
Sunday, July 6th, 2008Hello, lovelies! This is just a reminder that I am in the amazing confines of NYC at the moment, so my posting may be less frequent. But, I have so many photographic treasures (and videos, too!) to share when I return home on the 13th.
Until then, here’s a quick recap of the last two days:
I had a […]
SXSW Austin, Texas: Sights and Snapshots
Monday, March 17th, 2008Austin has been a great experience, though the Summer-like weather here is throwing me for a loop! After working a booth at Flatstock for two days and spending last night at a crazy warehouse party, Monday was spent exploring the city, hanging out at the hotel pool and doing some vintage shopping.
Flatstock was so much fun; […]
Mastering the Art of Bed Jumping!
Monday, January 7th, 2008Bed jumping is an art. It requires great poise and agility. Yes, it should be an Olympic sport! To get started, all you need is a loose fitting outfit and a cushy bed. Mine was in a NYC hotel room, complete with a leather headboard!
To be a bed jumping star, follow my simple tips:
1. Act like you […]
The Past Still Lingers in Astoria
Monday, November 26th, 2007One of the first things I noticed about Astoria is that the downtown area seemed quite large for a population of only 10,000 people. A hundred years ago, it was the second largest city in Oregon. Astoria’s past sometimes overshadows the present; the Lewis and Clark expedition spent time there and it was the first […]

The Oregon Coast: Charming Beach Cottages
Sunday, November 25th, 2007
On the way to Astoria, we stopped in Cannon Beach (my favorite town along the Oregon Coast by far) and drove down sandy side roads, spying quaint little beach cottages. I snapped photos of my two favorites; both were slightly weathered and full of personality! The angles on the above roof made me think it […]
What I Wore: 11.22.07
Saturday, November 24th, 2007
Every time I am near Cannon Beach on the Oregon Coast, it’s necessary to stop and pose next to this sea captain statue! Charming, isn’t he? Past evidence of this statue-posing tradition can be seen here and here.

Silliness, Taglines, and a Mini Vacation…
Monday, November 19th, 2007
It’s not like I ever expected to get a job at Apple anyway….
This is my new introductory image on the ‘About’ page.

Taglines:
You can’t live without them (really!), but they seem mysterious, intangible, and impossible to dream up at times. I’ve been trying to come up with one for my blog, but I’m not so sure about […]

New York: Brooklyn Butter Dish
Tuesday, October 16th, 2007
One of my favorite stores in New York City, FISHS EDDY on 19th and Broadway specializes in “American sturdyware,” dishware from diners and restaurants across the country as well as new lines from various designers. I have collected vintage dishes for years; when I recently visited, this place was a haven! I bought some airline […]
