Dining out! What – are you surprised to find out we eat fancy here in Suburbia? It ain’t no thang. We like to treat ourselves once in a while. Sure, we kind of love Doritos Locos Tacos, but special occasions call for more than just Taco Bell. And you’ll be as surprised as I was to hear that some people still haven’t tasted this goodness. So here’s our public service announcement: get on it because your taste buds will have never been happier. And, let me give you a piece of advice on eating in these nice restaurants – the chips do not come free. So make sure you put in that order of chips, and don’t forget the guac. Never forget the guac.

Oh yea, in case you couldn’t tell from the photos above, I’m still on crutches. I’m officially sick-and-tired of wearing flip flops. (ie. the only shoe my bandage/ankle brace will fit in). I swear after this foot heals, I never want to see another flip flop again.
Still not sure why am I on crutches? Have you not been reading our blog? Come on people. Get with it!

Disclaimer: This site is not sponsored by Chipotle. But if Chipotle wants to throw some free burrito bowls our way, we won’t complain!

Last week, you saw me in a wheelchair from a sprained ankle. After countless hours of web-MD’ing, I’ve learned the following facts about a sprained ankle. (1) The first 48-72 hours are crucial in terms of quick recovery. (2) R-I-C-E also known as Rest, Ice, Compress, and Elevate. (3) Stay off your ankle. (4) No alcohol.

Well, 2 weeks later, I’m still on crutches because what did I do 48-72 hours after spraining it? (1) Went to Encore Beach Club to dance (2) Drank Champagne (3) Drank Blood Orange Mojitos (thanks to Spago) (3) Went Shopping at the H&M Mecca (4) Borrowed a Wheelchair for 1 hour so I could gamble (5) Went Dancing. While I did ice my ankle at some parts of the trip, it definitely was not what was required. In conclusion: Successful trip in Vegas? Yes. Successfully healed ankle? No.

Call it irony or literary justice because once upon a time, I would get the mail wearing crazy platform shoes that I was sure would cause a sprained ankle. Six month’s later, here I am getting mail in crutches because…well… I sprained my ankle.

Hey Girl, Namaste

a-line, bib necklace, black and white, Booties, core power yoga, dress, hey girl, ryan gosling, statement necklace, target, target style, yoga

Yoga can be tricky with lots of weird sounding technical names for poses. Let’s begin.IMG_9672

this is called “how-I-would-catch-my-fall-if-I-had-barbie-legs”.IMG_9695

this is called “can-I-keep-my-face-out-of-dog-poop?”IMG_9698

this is called “my-life-is-over-I-face-planted-in-dog-poop”.IMG_9710

this is called “baby seal” with a “someone’s-feet-really-smell” expression…IMG_9712

this is called “riding-a-surfboard”.IMG_9716

this is called “I-wonder-if-my-armpits-smell”.IMG_9724

this is called “I scored a perfect 10 in gymnastics dismount”.IMG_9738

christine wears:

dress | target (available in 3 different prints!)
necklace | f21 (triangle and green versions)
open toe booties | aldo (silver splurge or slouchy steal)

I’ve sort of become a hot yoga addict.  Not really by choice, but because membership to my yoga studio is highway robbery so I try to go as much as possible (plus I saw Ryan Gosling in my yoga class once so FO SHO I’m going to yoga every single day for the rest of my life until I die or he asks to marry me, whichever comes first).  I’m not sure if I’m actually losing any weight from yoga, but I definitely feel stronger.  I’ve at least stopped faceplanting (almost) every time I try to do yogi push-ups (chaturanga dandasana, for those fluent yogi-speak out there).  Even if I can never do a one armed handstand with my pinky finger someday, I still love it because hot yoga makes me feel awesome afterwards.  Not only do I sweat like a pig (so I can eat a pig for dinner later), I also feel reenergized.  Bring IT, world.  And if that didn’t motivate you, how about the prospect of Ryan Gosling saying, “hey girl, you look good with your yoga pants on.”  Sigh, nothing motivates like Ryan.

Happiest Place on Earth

alice wears: express sequin skirt + h&m navy dolman top + jcrew yellow bubble necklace (similar) | old navy taupe suede booties
christine wears: madewell polka dot dress (similar) + meg layered necklace + nine west wedges (similar) + banana republic yellow cardigan (similar) + madewell chambray shirt + madewell friendship bracelets

We live in SoCal, so it really was only a matter of time before we went to Disneyland. The happiest place on earth. Where happily ever after exists…well, unless you believe this interpretation. Despite that vision, I whole-heartedly believe Prince Eric decided to become a mermaid, so him and Ariel are both living happily ‘Under the Sea’.  Amiright? Disneyland is also where the only mouse I will ever like (or hug) lives.  And do I even need to mention that Disneyland has the best churros in all the land.  (ALL THE LAND, PEOPLE).

In all honesty, what really brought us here was to conquer one fear: Teacups.  Remember when spinning in circles and feeling dizzy was fun? But now that you are old…er, your body rebels against you causing instantaneous nausea.  Well no fear because we are happy to report we attempted the teacups TWICE.  Albeit, the second time we conquered the Teacups slightly inebriated (we like a challenge), yet still it was FUN.  Take that, old(er) self.
