Whimsical Wednesday: Office Accessories

{Simple notebooks tied in twine Krafty Notebooks.}
Adding accessories is essential and fun when building one's office; It's a chance to add color, esthetic and personality to your space. I found these great pieces from Typo, an Australian stationary store that has just made it's way to San Francisco! 
{Soft grip stapler in a cool color adds color to your desk Milton Stapler.}
{Fun vintage sign adds character to the walls Metal Plaque.}
{ A different version of the notepad Nail it Notes.} 
{Classic file with a pop of color Expanding File.}
{Laptop case thats fun and chic Lap it Up.}

Yakini Q Cafe- Western Addition, San Francisco

Yakini Q, located near Japantown in San Francisco, is a sweet little cafe serving Korean and Japanese lunches, sweets and drinks. I love coming here before class for a hot cocoa and macaroons or after work for an iced Yuzu honey tea. They also have odd but delicious choices such as the Sweet Potato latte! 
{Love the quirky decor, mix-match of furniture and bright lighting.}
{Delicious treats line all along the counter!}
{Artwork hangs along the walls and change out often to showcase different local artists.}

Definitely swing by Yakini Q, home of the Sweet Potato latte!

Happy Leap Day!!


Hi all! Sorry to disappear for a while but I'm back! Today was a Leap Day and I made sure to do something that I don't usually do everyday. The frosting was delicious!

Be Mine...

I'm very happy to say that I finally got around to making some Valentine's Day cards! I bought this vintage looking stamp that I fell in love with, from Cranberry Hill in Sunnyvale, Ca. not too long ago. I didn't want to do too much but only add some sparkling glitter to this cutie's dress and heart!

Simplicity at it's Best

{A simple yet comfortable Dolman-sleeve shirt. Old Navy}
{A light skirt that gives a lovely silhouette. Anthropologie}
{Classic leather belt done in a coral color. J.Crew}
{A minimalist pair of heels that keeps the overall look simple but chic. J.Crew}

I love how the simplest silhouettes and colors can come together and create a simple yet chic combination. The phrase 'no fuss, no muss' definitely applies here and it reveals another great outfit that transitions beautifully into Spring.

The Ferry Building- San Francisco, Ca

Always bustling with high energy, the Ferry Building is filled with people looking for  quality market food and the best spot to sit and have lunch. I recently made the trip down there after hearing my sister rave about the tasty treats she had there herself!
{The place that sparked this cool venture! Yummy chai lattes & hot chocolate made from fresh milk.}
{Divine chocolates and candies.}
{The inside architecture is inspiring to look at...}
{These fresh oysters were so good, I wanted more after just having eaten two!}
{Boccalone- great quality meats and an interesting 'Salumi Cone' on the menu.}
{This market had all kinds of fun and colorful pasta; check out the sombrero hats!}
{Of course no market place type would be without the famous Blue Bottle Coffee.}

I had a great time looking through all of the different venues the Ferry Building had to offer; I was definitely happy and full by the end!
