I love Southern California in the winter. It's not your typical "winter scene" but I love it. And who wouldn't? Bright Christmas bulbs shine in the warm sunlight. Palm trees and Christmas trees live side by side. And when the Santa Ana winds blow, tradition has it that "anything can happen" :) (Remember that quote from "The Holiday"?) I wish you could join me for a scroll around LA in all it's Christmas cheer, but since you can't, I will share some of my favorite views of it from this past weekend.

One of my favorites houses in LA - designed by the creator of the Barbie Doll. (I may or may not secretly want to live there someday. Although the pink and purple color scheme maaaay get old fast. Nevermind, I'll just take the "Father of the Bride" house in Pasadena.)
California is beautiful. I've always wanted to visit! Do you live near Pasadena?? I have close friends there!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous pics, your nails are so cute, are those stickers? Also, I totally want to live in that Barbie House!!
ReplyDeleteI am loving California! You all have it all here, it's awesome:) FYI I would so take the Father of The Bride house, that and the house from Brothers and Sisters, but who knows where that one is!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for sharing! I would love to be in some warmer weather seeing Christmas trees and palm trees! And...that Barbie house is sooo cute!! :-)
ReplyDeleteIt definitely doesn't feel like Christmas time here in Phoenix. It's still in the 80's and there are cacti and palm trees everywhere!

Hi, Erin! I love me some Cali-Christmas, too! Although I'm more of a "valley" (literally) girl myself. :)
ReplyDeleteHey, you popped by my blog a few weeks back and commented on my weekly "Starbucks Tuesday" post, saying how much you love coffee! Well, it's the first Tuesday of the month, which is when I host a "Starbucks Tuesday Link-Up." Feel free to pop on over again and link-up for a girls "coffee date!"

Oh, you are killing me right now! I live in Ohio now, but California is where I'm from. I was there 3 months ago but I've been SO homesick lately!
ReplyDeleteThat house is adorable! Where's it at in LA? I might try to find it when I'm there next month! ;) And I love your nails! Super cute
ReplyDeleteEven though it might not be your typical Christmas feel, I would kill to be in Southern California for the holidays!
ReplyDeleteand ps. YOUR NAILS.
That's exactly the way Christmas is supposed to look... with palm trees and not snow!!! (I grew up in the Mojave, not loving our New York snow.)
ReplyDeleteLOVING your nails girl! :)
