On the way to a shoot!
Since we’ve moved into a smaller living space, we’ve had to condense our furniture – in size and number. A lot of the Ikea stuff we bought when we first moved to Seattle last year is now too big for the new apartment. Thus, we are selling everything for super cheap because we just need it OUT of our apartment!
If anyone from the Seattle area is interested in buying, leave a comment or send me an email! Everything is less than a year old and in good condition.

ASOS shift dress, YSL pumps (similar here and here), Chanel WOC (similar here and here)
My favorite dress silhouette, the shift dress. It’s great for one of those mornings where you don’t feel like thinking about what to wear. Instantly cleans you up and works great for day-to-night. Wearing your hair up also adds to the effect. But really, it’s because I didn’t feel like washing my hair that morning so I have dirty hair. Also, this dress is under $30!
Went straight from work, picked up Husband from home, and had sushi dinner with Melvin (May + Calvin + Kevin). Then walked around the corner to the historic (and indie) Landmark Harvard Exit Theatre to watch Jiro Dreams of Sushi, a documentary about the 85-year-old sushi chef with a 10-person sushi restaurant inside the Ginza train station who was awarded 3 Michelin stars. If you love food, sushi, and/or Tokyo, it’s worth seeing!
Someone on Ask Phivy asked if I could post photos of myself wearing my WOC. Seeing it in photos, I notice that my short torso once again is interfering with my assemble. I never noticed before how long the WOC was on me! NONETHELESS. I’ve been loving the WOC. It’s so versatile. On days I need a bigger bag, I just tuck the chain inside the bag and use it as a wallet. Great for everyday errands requiring the use of both arms – like to carry 50 hangers of clothes to the dressing room.

We’ve officially moved into our new place and IT IS AWESOME living walking distance away from stuff. Like Trader Joe’s. And drinking. Not driving is AMAZE.
Back in Houston, since our house was centrally located, preparties and afterparties often took place at Calder House. I like to think I’m a Rachel (don’t we all), but that Monica part of me loves being the host. “
I’M ALWAYS THE HOSTESS!…I SERVED THE BEST AIR!” So it felt good to live in a place where you could actually have people over and they didn’t feel like they were suffocating in a suburban cave of beige walls and bad lighting.
Last photo was the desk we built last night. Our new place is substantially smaller than our previous place and up against this wall was pretty much the only place we could put our computers. The problem was, we needed the desk to be long and skinny (lol) because this area is also the walkway to the kitchen. We looked everywhere for a desk that was at least 7-8 feet wide, but with a depth of 20 inches or less, but they were either out of our price range, or simply didn’t exist. Solution? DIY. We went to IKEA and bought the Numerar countertop, brought it to Lowes to get it trimmed down to 18 inches, and placed it on some [temporary] cheapo $10 metal legs. Total cost was under $200. We’ll probably replace the legs after we find better ones (like some steel hairpin legs), but for now, our new workstation works great. More home decor to come!
