Sorry I've been MIA... I finally moved to San Francisco! I live two blocks away from Alamo Square and can walk to Popeyes and Taco Bell. I posted two pictures on Tumblr but will be posting more once I'm settled in. For now enjoy these photos that Megan took before we went to In-N-Out today.

The Day I Met Jeff Lewis

When my friend from my old job at the Design Center told me that Jeff Lewis was coming to speak, I totally freaked out, booked my flight back to SF a day earlier than I had planned, told Wesley Mason, and went to the event together to see him. For those who don't know who Jeff Lewis is, in short, he is a house flipper turned interior designer who is a crazy narcissist with major OCD and a sarcastic humor that I absolutely love and has his own reality show called Flipping Out.
Growing up in LA and having friends in the entertainment industry, I've seen a lot of celebrities and I normally don't get nervous, ever. However, when I was about to meet Jeff Lewis and his long time assistant Jenni Pulos, I got nervous and my stomach started to hurt. This is the guy, since 2 years ago, that I wanted to be like and is kind of like my career role model. Yes, he has some life issues and is still single at the age of forty which won't be me unless Wesley Mason dumps me but every time I see him on TV, I feel like our personalities and goals in life are so much alike especially when it comes to being very blunt and wanting to be successful in this industry. (I almost got fired at my old retail job for telling female customers how they really look when they asked me for my opinion on the outfits they chose. I'm bad at sugar coating so I come off rude)

So what did I say to him? I told him that since 2 years ago, my goal was to be like him. I told him I'm a fashion blogger and an interior designer and in a recent interview I did with a fashion magazine they asked me, "What would you like to be doing in 5 years?" and my answer was, "I want to be the female version of Jeff Lewis minus the drama."
I honestly can't remember what he said but I remember him being super happy and his breathe smelled nice and apparently I like to talk with my hands.
Seriously, I love you Jeff Lewis and... where is Zoila?

So sad to be leaving LA already but thinking about moving back this summer makes me feel better and makes me want to enjoy San Francisco as much as I can.
My mom took these pictures at a park located less than 10minutes away from my place but I only discovered it a couple of days ago when I was walking my two twins (Malti & Pooma) on a different route. So funny how I never explored this part of my neighborhood!

Enjoying the beautiful LA weather and listening to all of the great music on my boyfriend's new Reggae blog, is really getting me in the mood for Summer!
