last month i saw the new series of artwork by lab partners over at super 7 on haight street. the prints of the next stop: san francisco line are inspired by the city by the bay. here are a few of them…

there’s nothing like spending the day doing fun stuff and getting silly with your friends. i’m not a huge group/party type of girl. not anymore. the older i get, the more i appreciate small get-togethers and one-on-one time with those i love. when i’m with someone i want to put my focus on them. i guess it’s kind of my way of showing them how important they are to me. here’s a glimpse of my girl time from tuesday with my bff {we did a little early b-day celebrating – hers, not mine} by venturing out of our neighborhoods to explore – super fun!…
what’s always in order during a day of fun? why, an impromptu photo shoot of course!
we took these photos in front of an apartment building with a crazy-fun painted exterior. we were giggling at ourselves so hard and i’m sure all the people thought we were silly. they’d be right. we totally are.
yellow owl workshop always has the cutest items. when i recently spotted these stamps sets i put them on my wish list.
which one would you go for? it’s hard to choose since both sets have an animal!
so it’s a brand new year. does that mean it’s time for a brand new bag? hmmm…one can never have too many, right? i’ve had my eye on this organic canvas screen printed tote by fluffyco. there’s a red heart on one side and black on the other so you’ve got options depending on your mood.
two-sided heart tote by fluffyco: $49.00
halloween is pretty great, right? there’s the dressing up, the candy, and my favorite part…all the scary movies that are brought back in small theaters and on tv. what will you be doing? i’ll be at the candy store in san francisco where they’re having their 5th annual halloween event {they give away tons of candy…for free!}. have fun and be safe!
cute, right?

i am 100% totally in love with oakland’s double dutch sweets. confectioner shiyuan’s creation the ramona bar is ridiculously delicious. imagine a fancy, high-end version of a snickers bar that includes nougat with peanuts and a layer of salted caramel, all covered in dark chocolate with salt sprinkled across the top. yes, i am drooling right now as well. the one place here in the city of san francisco where you can pick up some of her bars is the candy store in russian hill.
even better news is that shiyuan will be at the candy store this thursday for a confectioner showcase where you can meet with her and sample her chocolate. while there you can enjoy some champagne and take advantage of a 10% discount on any purchase you make throughout the event.
what: the candy store’s confectioner showcase featuring double dutch sweets
where: the candy store, 1507 vallejo street {at polk}
when: thursday, august 18, 5:00 – 7:00pm

so…this is new to me, but a few years ago there was a commercial that aired where thousands of colorful bouncy balls made their way down the streets {and crazy hills} of san francisco. danish photographer, peter funch was able to capture the action and the limited edition prints are available for sale at Lumas. check these photos…
amazing, right?! i can’t believe that really happened! here’s the video {i think it’s beautiful}…

my loves, i am super duper excited to share this with you. if you’ve been a reader since way back when, you’ll know i used to have a jewelry line called on a friday. when i left home to venture out to san francisco i had temporarily shut down my site. or it was supposed to be temporary. well, three+ years later, i am proud to announce that i have finally, finally relaunched on a friday a little over one week ago. it has been a lot of fun, a lot of work, a lot of restyling of the look of the site {and business cards, packaging, etc. – read about it here}. thanks to lindsay, of course, i am once again able to have a shiny new shop that i am thrilled about. i hope that you’ll enjoy it! here’s a peek…
juliet: $65.00; billie: $35.00; sienna: $50.00; rizzo: $42.00
shondra {blue}: $50.00; mahana: $46.00; trudy: $150.00
thanks for all of your continued support with my business ventures. i’d love it if you want to keep up with on a friday! check out my blog, brand new twitter, facebook page {where i’ll host giveaways}, and sign up for the newsletter {where i’ll offer special discounts}.
have you ever visited sunhee moon here in san francisco? it is a little ridiculous that i haven’t featured the small boutique before. you know how i often mention not being the biggest clothing shopper? well, this shop is one that when i am in the mood or in need of something new i head to. what i adore about shopping at the two boutiques is that they have superior customer service. the girls are always friendly and genuinely helpful. they take their time to ensure you find what is right for you.
the san francisco company supports other local businesses by using primarily american-made fabrics and producing their clothes in small quantities not far from their headquarters in the mission district. sunhee graduated from university of california at berkeley and continued her studies by heading to italy to learn more about art history. she traveled throughout india and asia before starting her line.
sunhee moon‘s aesthetic is clean and classic, yet modern. she pulls inspiration from the 1950′s era {hello, classics!}. the styles are really flattering on various body types and the color palette always makes me happy. each item from the shop can easily blend its way in to your current wardrobe {which is important when you’re a picky-i-don’t-like-to-shop-shopper like me}. the items are so well-made and i never fail to receive compliments on the items i have when i wear them. oh, and i even like the way the store is arranged – blocks of color grouped together. perfect like a rainbow!
aloha!
i’m liana.
welcome to my site.
so nice to meet you!
i’ll do my best to keep you entertained.
