Lea’s Suitcase

Whoa, hi free Wifi on Delta, Just thought this was so cool, I had to share. Enjoy your Friday and weekend ya’ll.

Lexi is being a little Camera shy…maybe she will make a guest appearance shortly.

Chicago, you’ve been good to me once again. Great seeing old friends and making new ones… you all know who you are. I always say this but it is appropriate, “Good People Attract Good People”. I am truely thankful for all the beautiful people in my life. 2009 has been a good one.
A scene from FRIENDSGIVING the other night…

Also, stop by RSVP Gallery and say HI to my girl, Chicago’s finest, Alicia

How is the weather where you are? Here in Grand Bahamas is still what I like to call “boob sweat”. Late this afternoon, I went exploring. Ok, not so much… just went out front and took some quick snapshots with my Panasonic
DMC-TS1 (underwater HD Lumix). I didn’t get totally submerged but, had fun frolicking in the waves and sand. More to come soon.

See ya’ll there later this week <3 Family, Friends, Fun!

A small project I started a few months ago (this past summer) that I am in dyer need to finish. Offices bore me so I am spray painting my file cabinet Wasabi Green and, I got some hardware from Anthropologie for $50. Here is some inspiration below. Upon my return to Florida, this is on top of my list. Along with cleaning out my storage unit of Vans samples.

If you are visiting the LA area, stop by Golden State Cafe for a life changing Root Beer float experience. I am writing about this because I want one right now. What it is, is Gelato… you can pick from diffrent flavors but my favorite combo is Vanilla but it has crunchy grapenuts in it. The “Beer” is Root beer on Draft. However, you can get “real” beer also if you choose. I try and get The Sir to walk downstairs with me everyday to get one.

“I’ve Got The Conch” is prolly one of my favorite lines from the book, Lord Of The Flies. Ooo 6th grade required reading. Anyways, a quick snap shot of what I pass every day to and from work in the Bahamas; not a bad sight at all. Something about the old wreckage makes me want to explore more and beyond… I’ll just have to settle for Conch Ceviche right now.

It’s been a while since I posted something about the color Orange. I don’t know why more people don’t wear Orange and Black… perhaps its too Halloween like here in the States. However, in Europe, it’s commonly seen. Here is some inspiration. Add a splash of Purple as a 3rd color for additonal dimension. Usually when I travel/pack my Suitcase, I stick to a color palette so it’s all interchangable. Compliments of Polyvore.com

SOME OF MY FAVORITES:

Later this month, I get to see my family in Greece… it’s been almost 2 years. Back in the day, it was hard while in Grad School and working at the same time to set across the globe. Mostly what I am excited about is the fashion. Greece is my secret little jem… having influcences from Italy and amazing Turkish leather. I cannot wait to see what treasures I find, aside from spending time with family and cooking with my Aunts. PS, Greek boys were wearing Harem Pants before you…aka: Vrakes
