Photo Friday: LA!
Visited my very cute friend Charles in LA this week; had a fantastic time!
Love Bette Davis!
And Vivian Leigh! Ah, Gone With The Wind. Le sigh.
One day I'll own a vintage typewriter like this one I found in Silver Lake.
The Griffith Observatory is such a great spot to get a view of LA.
I was like a little kid in Hollywood--I hadn't been to the touristy spots since I was 9 years old! Which star's hands would you choose to touch?
PS-Debut novelist Abby McDonald is giving away a copy of her novel SOPHOMORE SWITCH. Go enter the contest!

That typewriter is so pretty.
Believe it or not-- I have a huge collection of vintage typewriters!

You know, I've lived in Southern CA for my entire life but I've never been to Hollywood and seen the Chinese Theatre or all of the handprints and stars. I've drove through it all but never actually stopped. I love the Griffith park observatory! Last time I went was a few years ago w/my cousins and we saw an awesome laser show there. On a clear day you can see the Hollywood sign. : ) I always remember the Wonder Years episode where they went there and Winnie stole a hat, lol.

Oooh, sounds fun. I've never been to LA and I live like, an hour away by plane up in NorCal. I love your ballet flats in the first pic and the cute sunglasses in the third one! Hope you're having fun! (:

What a fun trip! Love that you love Bette Davis -if that was me I'd have been on my hands and knees the whole time, looking up like a hundred stars.
I also nominated you for an award on my blog!

And that typewriter is really cool.

That typewriter is so cool. I love anything vintage! I have a vintage sewing machine my great-grandmother gave me years ago and I love breaking it out every now and then just to look at it.
