Sharing some of the cutest places in LA/OC…

California Donuts

While you’re in LA you have to stop by California Donuts. Not only are they delicious, but they are insanely adorable! I especially love the panda ones! Although the location isn’t the prettiest, it’s very easy to bring these bad boys around anywhere and take lots of cute photos with them! Which is why I brought them to Venice for a little adventure.

In N Out 

For some this is a total no-brainer,but for some living outside the USA it’s not something that comes to mind. In N Out is a delicious fast food chain,but everything is fresh and seriously tastes amazing! Plus they make a great grilled cheese so as a vegetarian I’m always a happy camper. It always makes for a super cute overhead photo with their red trays, but you can also ask for a hat from them to make a photo of yourself even cuter!

Hello Kitty Cafe Pop-up 

I mean, does this even need an explanation!? Hello Kitty Cafe Pop-up?! This one is located in Orange County at the Irvine Spectrum and it’s oh so yummy. You can get a latte with Hello Kitty’s face on it or a big piece of birthday cake shaped like a present. If you happen to be in OC I’d 100% recommend going! You can also see my full post here on this cafe.

Honey and Butter 

Honey and Butter is another adorable cafe/sweets spot in Orange County conveniently also in the Irvine Spectrum! They make the *cutest* character macarons,but even the normal ones are utterly delicious! I suggest trying the French toast because it’s AMAZING! Plus they have cute Totoro’s all around the shop… soooooo cute! See my full post on this cafe here.

My very first Mother’s Day as your mom my sweet My very first Mother’s Day as your mom my sweet Evergreen 🤍 you’ve changed my life forever & being your mom is always going to be the thing I am most proud of in my life 🤍 I remember right after she was born (this first photo) she was crying & I just kept saying “it’s okay baby, it’s okay” and I can’t even explain how surreal it was to be holding my baby in my arms. It’s hard for me sometimes to not feel like I’m counting down the Mother’s days my mom had with me.. thinking I only have 6 more. It reminds me constantly to be more present and make allllll the memories & don’t hold back. Being a mom is one of the hardest things I’ve ever done & also one of the absolute best, beautiful, meaningful things I’ve ever done. 🤍

A little love letter to this @sezane floral shirt A little love letter to this @sezane floral shirt of my dreams 💕🌷 this weekend is my first Mother’s Day and it has me thinking a lot about being a mom and weird little details. I used to think when you loved someone it meant you had every part of them memorized- you could pick out their hand in a line up or their lips. But with Ever I’ve realized it’s not like that- every single day she’s growing and every single day she wakes up a little bit different. It may sound silly but it’s been on my heart lately about how weirdly this feels like such an emotional part of motherhood that seems so simple but is something I never really thought about. #sezanelovers #sezanepartner
Motherhood is often seen as the ultimate balancing Motherhood is often seen as the ultimate balancing act - managing a career, maintaining a home, and raising children. But what if saying “no” could actually be empowering and give mothers the chance to say “yes”? #pureleafpartner 💕

That’s where the “No” Grants partnership with @pureleaf comes in. This program is designed to provide a little extra financial support to mothers who want to say “no” to the pressures and expectations that come with motherhood and “yes” to simplicity. With the “No” Grants partnership, Pure Leaf is empowering mothers to say “no” to doing it all and “yes” to simplifying life.

To learn more and apply for a “No” Grant, visit the link in my bio! #noisbeautiful 

No purchase necessary. Open to all 50 US & DC residents, 18+ (19+ in AL/NE). Ends 10/31/23. Rules, eligibility & entry deadlines: www.PureLeaf.com/NoGrants.
