Baby, it's cold outside!


Living in San Francisco makes you realize how important stylish jackets are to your wardrobe. These two, which greatly contrast each other, are extremely inspiring to me. The first FABULOUS garment is a navy-and-white dot weave double-breasted swing coat. Its a Juicy Couture coat that has tortoiseshell button fastenings, bracelet sleeves, a rounded collar, pockets on hip and is fully lined. It is made of 80% wool which is sure to keep anyone warm on a brisk night in the city. The classic coat is $450 and very chic!
The second coat is truly something unique. A very futuristic Black cropped leather jacket with pleated wings at shoulders. Made by Aminaka Wilmont and has a high collar, a zip through the front, pleat detailing at sides, full sleeves with buckle fastening tabs and an exposed zipper and a rear designer embossed plaque. This work of art is $2,095!!!! I know... a little out of my price range, but this leather jacket is the epitome of CHIC and fashion forwardness!

Boston Market

This week I went to visit San Jose with Shabiz and we had a fantastic time. I had expressed to him many times that I wanted to go for a meal at the AMAZING Boston Market on 16th and Potero. Sadly, we haven't had the opportunity to do so, so I suggested that we indulge at the one in San Jose. Now, let me tell you... Boston Market isn't elegant, but it is by far the yummiest meal I have ever had for 6 dollars!!! I had the 1/4 piece chicken with Creamed Spinach which is unique because it is mixed with rich cheeses, cream and garlic. I also gobbled up the Sweet Potato Casserole which is Beauregard sweet potatoes slowly cooked, mashed, and mixed with spices and brown sugar. Sprinkled with an oatmeal streusel and mini marshmallows. And finally, a small piece of moist cornbread. The meal was all I expected and more! Boston Market is a great place to go eat at if you are trying to eat a delicious meal on a budget. I greatly suggest you take the time to visit the location in Potero Hill.

New Q-Tip

This new Q-Tip joint is off the hook. It has an old school feel to it, but is still modern and hip at the same time. I love him, his voice, and the video. Check it out!

I found this AMAZING shirt on Pat Field's website and it is my new obsession. Is very cute and also a very truthful statement. I love Patricia Field!!! She is an American Academy Award-nominated costume designer,stylist and fashion designer.For her work on Sex and the City, Field was nominated for 5 Emmy Awards, with one win, and nominated for 6 Costume Designers Guild Awards, with 4 wins. She is truly a talent and this little tee is truly adorable!

Hannah Montana's new boyfriend


I am addicted to celebrity gossip blogs and today I encountered pictures of Miley Cyrus and her new BF going to church together. This very cute, very gay looking guy is named Justin and he is an underwear model as well as some type of singer. The twist to all of this is SLUTTY CYRUS is 15 and her new boo is 20!!! the little biatch is growing up way too fast and its really sad.

BABKA= DELISH!


While I was eating a fabulous dinner with my amazing male friend, Shabiz tonight we got on the topic of cakes and sweet things of sorts. I began to reminisce about my childhood and life in the Valley when I suddenly remembered my love of Babka. Babka is a tall, spongy yeast cake filled with chocolate. The best part is that it is often topped with streusel and chocolate chips. Babka is often popular among the Jewish population, hence the reason I was raving about it to Shabiz. I told him about how my mother would buy it weekly, on Friday, for Shabbat, and that I would often sneak down to the kitchen to slice small pieces of Babka for myself.It is truly delish and I am now actively trying to find a Jewish bakery in the city that could provide me with some ORGASMIC chocolate babka. yummy!
