The Monday Rundown

Lemon, quinoa, avocado, cilantro chickpea salad: As of late, I’ve been really into quinoa so it was pretty clear that I would love this salad that also happens to consist of several other ingredients that I love: avocado, cilantro and chick peas.  Granted, I know a LOT of people hate cilantro so I’m sure you could take that out of the recipe and be just fine.

Jouer Pochette: I was in Portland for New Year’s Eve this year and my friends and I were all gawking and ahhing over Nadine’s little pink pochette from Jouer Cosmetics!  It’s the perfect size for going out since you can fit your cash, ID, credit cards AND iPhone inside.  Of course, I immediately got one in brown.

House of Harlow 1960 Talon crystal cuff: By now you all know about my obsession with all things House of Harlow 1960, so it should come as no surprise that I found yet another new piece that I love.  Talons.  And crystals…I mean.

Plum & Bow Metallic Cat Pillow: I find this metallic cat pillow to be both ironic and awesome, especially since, if you follow me on Instagram, you know that I recently adopted two new cats of my own.  The best part about this pillow is that it totally looks like a real cat when styled amongst other throw pillows on the bed.  If I didn’t already have two real cats of my own, I’d totally get this.

What I’m Into This Week…

WATCHING:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Liberal Arts – I watched this new movie randomly, on demand, and was left with the most AMAZING feeling when it was over.  It made me think back to all of the things that I miss about college but also appreciate all of the things that I’ve LEARNED since then.  The biggest takeaway: at one point Richard Jenkins’ character says, “I’ve felt 19 ever since I was 19 … Nobody feels like an adult; it’s the world’s dirty secret.” 

 

READING:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

How to Meditate: A Guide to Self-Discovery – I recently re-watched Eat Pray Love, which obviously always sparks that inner “what am I doing with my life and where is it going” question.  I know it seems kind of silly to read a book on HOW to meditate cause, well, isn’t meditation just quiet time sitting with your legs crossed?  You would think.  I need to read a how-to book because I’m totally that girl in yoga that can’t relax and is constantly thinking “was that my iPhone that just went off?”

 

EATING:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sauteed Vegetables: It’s probably the dumbest thing ever but I tend to go through food phase obsessions and, right now, I can’t get enough sauteed vegetables.  Zucchini, tomatoes, broccoli, cauliflower…I don’t discriminate, it’s all delicious.

 

LISTENING:

No Doubt “Push and Shove”: My love for all things No Doubt and Gwen Stefani is, of course, forever but I’m not biased when I say that Push and Shove is A-MAZING.  Seriously, No Doubt just gets better and better and I can’t wait to see them live on December 4th here in LA.

The Monday Rundown

Tobias Wong’s The Times of New York Candle: There’s something very old-school classy about reading a newspaper. This New York Times-inspired candle mimics the scent of newsprint and I’m totally obsessed. Act quickly, this candle is limited-edition.

Robyn Rhodes “Naomi” Earrings: These are supper summery and fun. I love the outer stitching and how you can make them match practically anything.

M.A.C Cosmetics SemiPrecious Mineralize Eye Shadow in “Unsurpassable”: I used to be so confused when I’d see all these colors swirled together and wonder how exactly they translate to any kind of shade on the skin. M.A.C has done an amazing job coming up with all sorts of fantastic color combos, my fave being this green/grey/purple combo.

Milk With Sprinkles: This is so simple yet so brilliant. What better way to encourage yourself (or kids) to get that extra calcium boost we all need?
