Small things...

...found inside a vintage plastic purse...



...if only the fortune could be true...

The shoes I'd wear to the party...

Gold ballerina flats with gold grosgrain ribbons. (The rest of the outfit is over here!)  
Happy New Year!!

PS:  The photo above was taken with an iPhone and then polarized with the free desktop application,  Polardroid! Can you tell the difference??!

iPhone photos: Buttons & Beads

The sorts of things I collect and can never part with no matter how useless they are.

English Muse: Week in Review

I think Los Angeles is one of the most beautiful cities in the world, which explains why I hated being stuck at my desk in the office...I always wanted to be out, meeting people and exploring. Now with my freedom and iPhone camera, I'm like a tourist of life.
So here's my little photo review of last week: Driving along Wilshire Blvd. through MacArthur Park...

...the next day over to Hollywood and then to West Hollywood, for a meeting with the lovely Willow Bay...

...In Beverly Hills for lunch with Colin Firth. Wait, I just want to say that again: Lunch with Colin Firth!!! yipeee!!..(sorry)...regaining my composure...

...Over to Century City, to the Avenue of the Stars...

...Then back in the San Gabriel Valley (stopping in San Marino for a cupcake...)

...Of course I believe cupcakes are the perfect food...

...One of my former bosses at the paper used to tell me: There's no news in the newsroom. It's out there in the city...

Where you can feel the sun on your face...

(PS: I'm doing a profile of Colin for the LA Times. It's set to run in a couple weeks.)

Mission Beach, via iPhone?

We decided to take a little day trip to San Diego...


But because I'm the most disorganized person on the planet, I forgot my camera...



So here are the photos taken on my new iPhone...



Well...



I know it's not Polaroid...



And of course nothing can compare to Polaroid...but...I'm just going to say it: I'm in love with my iPhone. Loooooveee! (Full set here).
