I Love Sofia!

Those who know me, know that I am a big fan of Sofia Coppola. I love her films. I love her style. I simply love her (I know, I know, borderline stalker). She is the gorgeous lady of my dreams. I also love Sofia, the champagne. I know it's not technically "champagne" as it's not made in the Champagne region of France, but I think that it's ridiculous that a singular geographical location can monopolize the word "champagne." Any who, I will be drinking a glass (or two or three) of Sofia tonight in honor of 2010.
Happy New Year everyone!

A Few of My Favorite Things: at home

I've been so busy with school finishing projects and preparing for finals, that I haven't really had the time to do a post for a while. Alas, here are some of my favorite things at home. Just little things around my home that bring me pleasure every time I see them. Enjoy!

A sweet faerie lamp.


Beloved Books


Flora


My Dia de los Muertos mermaid figurine. A gift from Josh.

My vanity with one of my favorite things ever, the mirror. Also a gift from my lovely husband.


A pretty hand-beaded purse.

Christmas Time is Here!

We put up our little baby silver Christmas tree a few days ago! 2009 is probably going to be its last year with us, so I thought I would take some pictures of it before it passes on. We've had this little tree for just over 5 years now and I think it's on its last limb. I'm really hoping for a real tree next year, or a much larger, vintage-type silver tree.
Yep, that's Barbie on top of our tree! Who needs an angel when we've got this lovely vintage brunette lady? I must say, she is definitely dressed appropriately for a San Diego Christmas!

I can't wait to drink hot cocoa (with soy-milk of course) and walk around the neighborhood looking at Christmas lights! Happy Holidays to everyone! Love Toni and Josh
