“Jealous haters make us smile, they spend their life cloning our style. Nothin’ better to do with their time, they’ll even try to copy our rhyme. Ain’t none like us, as you can see, we the best, so let it be.”

The "Bold" Shoulder

"The Bold Shoulder"

Bold shoulders have made their comeback! Last year at this time women were cutting out the padding in their blazers. Lady Gaga, Rihanna and many other celebs have put this 80's style back on the charts!


Although some take it a little more to the extreme then others, Rihanna mixes her punk rock glow with her sophisticated style, Lady Gaga takes her fashion statements to the extreme which seems to fit her persona.

My Confession to "Relationships"

Relationships are a funny thing. Each is different, you hold a new, and interesting relationship with every person, to say the least. There's always those relationships that you maintain that cool, and always those you lose it. The ones that you wish you had said something, but at the time you couldn't, and then the one where you might have just said to much. Both ways  you could potentially mess EVERYTHING up! {ugh} there is no win win with these things called "relationships"

Blazers Are the New Cardigans

Fashionista:

Last year at this time we were wearing mustard colored cardigans. Currently we have switched over to floral and hounds tooth Blazers. Now every Vintage store I walk into I immediatley see a rack of Blazers, verses a rack of caridigans which leads me to my point Cardigans are out and Blazers are now back in. Blazers originated from the 80's and moved on into the early 90's.

CESAR @ Berkeley: Tapas, Wine, Beer & Spirits!

Their original location at 1515 Shattuck Avenue opened in May, 1998 in the heart of what has affectionately become known as the "gourmet ghetto" in north Berkeley, right next door to Chez Panisse. César combines freshly made tapas (spanish small plates) with a large and thoughtful selection of fine wines, beers and spirits. They serve a wide range of cocktails made by their expert bartenders, as well as wines-by-the-glass and sample "flights" from their list of spirits, sherries and other aperitifs, and dessert wines. César has been included in the san francisco chronicle's "best 100 restaurants of the bay area" every year since they opened.

The Sangrias at César are by far the best we have ever had! The delicious fruit forward wine punch was the perfect blend of fruit, ice, and alcohol!!
