S I T on A R T

I mentioned earlier this week that I was going to share an amazing piece that Ben and I picked up last weekend while thrifting in Los Angeles. This is truly a piece of art and it's just an added bonus that it's actually functional. So here it is, just in time for Cooper's birthday party this weekend...

We are so totally in love with this bench created by Mr. Anderson of Anderson's Benches. And as you can see from his selection of amazing art you can sit on, it was super hard to choose a favorite. Ben and I both have a fondness for all things shabby and chic but also love conversation pieces which is a category this definitely falls into. I love the two-toned color and the different chair styles. And at $350, it's totally affordable. 

So, the next time you're near Hollywood on a Sunday afternoon, stop by and say hello to Mr. Anderson at the Melrose Trading Post.

xoxo

Palm Springs Iconic Home Tour

As some of you may know, this week is Modernism Week in Palm Springs, California and we had the unique opportunity of touring the newly named historic site, the Menrad House, designed by William Krisel. It was the perfect balance of casual flow and minimalist simplicity. All I can say is I wanted to move in right then and there. Loving this retro design and those clerestory windows allowing for all of that natural light without sacrificing ones privacy. That artwork is fantastic and the bedding in that master bedroom...  love . This patio cover is to die for. A genius way to provide a bit of shade without feeling closed in. The design is so simple but the overall effect is absolutely stunning. Apparently, these homes sold so fast that a brochure was never even produced to promote them. I snapped a few shots of the neighboring houses and will share them soon. Next up, a tour of vintage trailers and caravans on Saturday. Can't wait to get inspired for wh

Purple Power Juice

As we wrap up our 3 day juice reboot , I find myself thinking about this fruity concoction we enjoyed on day 2 . A strong, berry burst with a bite of ginger, perfect as a morning pick-me-up. Remember, fruit is best consumed in the morning on an empty stomach because it moves through your digestive system much faster than other foods. 6 cups of concord grapes 1 green apple 1/2 cup of blackberries 2 2"  pieces of ginger (I used 1 1" piece because ginger is super strong) Enjoy! xo Sécia Check out our other juice recipes  here !
