Happy Chinese New Year! The Chinese new year actually started January 23rd, but San Francisco Chinatown festivities were this weekend.

Reporting live from the night parade...

YEAR OF THE DRAGON! THIS IS MY YEAR!



This is the best dim sum spot in SF Chinatown. From the outside it looks like a hole in the wall, but it transforms when you walk in, and non-Chinese don't know about it! I won't even tell you it's name!!


2 Taro Milk Tea (extra boba)

cotton candy nails (OPI "Lucky Lucky Lavender" + Forever 21 "Aqua")

I went to Chicago to visit my sister and hoped to see snow, alas it was a "warm" weekend.

We stayed at the Hard Rock Chicago. Their website showcased a Beatles themed bathroom and I was disappointed to see Bono in ours.


I finally saw THE BEAN. This European wedding party did a guerilla photoshoot. It was maybe 40 degrees, those bridesmaids were shivering.

THIS IS MY FRIEND, THE BEAN




I leave you with this video from The Buried Life...
