Namaste Bags
I got a nice surprise in the mail a few weeks ago, a bag from cruelty-free company Namaste. Finding a quality vegan bag is tough, you either get something cute and flimsy that doesn’t last, or something substantial but not in any color you want. The “Laguna” bag kind of fell in the middle. I wasn’t too crazy about the color I got (Eggplant – you can see it HERE) but I loved how sturdy the bag felt. Both the material and the construction feel... Read More

Veggie Grill: New Location, New Wings
I had a great meal at the new Veggie Grill last night with my friend Anna Griffin, editor of Coco Eco Magazine (you can read the article I wrote for them in the last issue HERE).

Since I grew up in LA, I have so many memories at the Farmer’s Market growing up. It’s such a unique LA spot, and I’m glad I’m... Read More
Adoptable Pet of the Day: Hester & Ruby
Hester (#11-02502) is a 3 year old Maine Coon. In her own words: I am looking for my second chance as my previous owner fell on hard economic times and could no longer keep me. Sometimes I am shy until I get to know you, but once I warm up, I can be quite the charmer. Being brushed is my favorite activity, followed by sunning myself in the windowsill. Visit me here at the shelter and see why I am such a special girl. South Bay Pet Adoption Center 12910 Yukon Avenue Hawthorne,... Read More
Prtty, Sexy & Vegan: I Try Prtty Peaushun
Along with trying out Pai Skincare, I’ve been looking forward to checking out Prtty Peaushun, another vegan product featured in the current issue of Coco Eco Magazine (that I also happened to guest edit). I’m all about glow so this sounded like the perfect product for me. As I’ve gotten older, I’ve noticed that all the matte products I used to wear aren’t doing me any favors any more. A year or so ago I started to make an effort to find products... Read More
Adoptable Pet of the Day: Baldwin & Bear
Baldwin (#11-03556) is a Domestic Short Hair, also around 5 years old. In his own words: I’m a super-friendly boy who loves everyone.
