Mini LV Love

How can you run around the streets of Paris and look so good? Only Hanneli, Elin Kling and Miroslava Duma can with the help of a little friend named Louis Vuitton. Okay now I'm going to put this song on my iPod and see if this LV mini does make me tres chic... I predict it will :)

Cover Girl: Lena Dunham

 It may not be a Vogue cover but everyone loves Lena. Hilarious, sassy and her "don't give a fuck attitude" makes her a ideal cover girl for i-D but if you're listening Lena, hurry up and finish writing Girls so I can watch it already! BTW I love the blouse!

Drug of Choice.... Drumroll please!

Iris Apfel is one of the greats. No one can doubt that. 

Now watch the video America and listen to her. She is one fabulous woman!

Inspired by Mastro's

Who's been to Mastro's? Such a lovely classic steakhouse in Beverly Hills but seriously how can you afford to go there all the time? Well we were super inspired and created our own Mastro's experience... even including the delicious surf and turf action I had last time I went. Alright now all I have to do is order a hipster cocktail.

Also sorry for the low picture quality. I didn't have my Dig-SLR on me.

The French use pistachios for everything so why not French cut green beans?

Thanksgiving ... Korean Style

A couple weeks ago was Korean Thanksgiving (Chu Seok). Growing up in the states, we always had turkey, stuffing and all the fixings during Thanksgiving but for my parents it was important for Karen and I to learn our roots and remember our ancestors during Korean Thanksgiving, which is based on the moon calendar. It's really about gathering with the family to share a meal together. 

There are definitely traditional foods that are usually there such as bin-dae-duk (korean pancakes) and kogi (marinated beef) but this year we wanted to do a little bit of an upgrade and put our own twist... OK I'm going to stop writing and just let you see for yourself. Eat up!
