I am currently in New Orleans on a business trip. It has been quite interesting talking with people about Katrina and all of the devastation. Even though its been a long time since, some of the aftermath is still apparent within the city. This is the first time I have been here and the culture is very different from Southern California. I have meet some very nice and helpful people to help me navigate around the city and of course find the antique stores. Sadly, there are not as many left. I had to a least get one Mardi Gras Bead necklace while I was here and of course, one with hearts.
I saw this sweet handmade rose elephant from Thailand at an Anthropologie store and had to take a picture. So cute!
Pushpins from Anthropologie to use on my inspiration board.
Love the shutters and architecture of this home. I know this is more common on the East coast, but I don't see it that much in the West.
The Scepter up close. I couldn't help but add the picture of me holding it, it makes me feel royal. I have wanted one of these since I was little. I really want to find a cape now!!! I know it sounds silly but I think it would be so fun to walk around in. Forget the prince charming I am the queen of my castle.Lol..I really love the colors too.

A small little painting I found on Magazine street in Louisiana at an antique store. I love the texture and paints coming out of the artwork. I could stare at paintings all day. I have always had a love for art and artists, which started when I was very young and saw some of Van Gough's paintings from the Netherlands at a museum in San Diego.
