KOSHi Luvs... Gala Darling's 'Things I Love Thursday'

♥ Fall is here!


♥ Interpol's "Antics" on repeat.

♥ Anthropologie's Cyclorama Jacket. The only problem? Can't decide which color I like better. Brown or Grey??? I'd love & wear em both!



♥ Baked or mashed sweet potatoes with my special sauce (black strap molasses, extra virgin cold-pressed coconut oil, raw organic honey, cinnamon, nutmeg) & chopped pistachios sprinkled on top. Heavenly :O)

♥ Long naps.

♥ The bowl of crystals that I keep on the night stand next to my side of the bed. My favorites are an obsidian egg that Billy got me at an outdoor market in Monterey, a purple flourite skull named "Frank", and my lapis lazuli heart.

♥ Lara Stone. One of the hottest models of all time. The face! That body! Those Quirky-Cute Teeth!






♥ The Selvedge Yard! Jon Patrick's retro-cool blog provides endless inspiration with a manly point of view...






♥ David Wolfe. Here is the first in a multi-part series of his talk on hormones at the Longevity Now Conference. If you're interested in health & you've never heard of David Wolfe, you are in for treat!

January 2010 : A Month In Magazines

I have too many magazines. It's gross. It's been a problem for over two decades. I started in elementary school. Stacks and stacks.

Once, about half way into my relentless editorial addiction, I got wise to the fact that my chronic hoarding of glossies might be taking a turn toward the unsavory, as my tiny apartment was being consumed by paper and my meager mid-20s paycheck may or may not have been responsible for singlehandedly sustaining the newsstand on Las Palmas & Hollywood.

That's when I decided to just start ripping out my favorite bits, filing them away for another day, and chucking the rest, which didn't really save much money, but did help to reclaim some shelf space.

Now, thanks to the information overload that I subject myself to daily online, I feel a lot less compelled to part with my cash for just any ol rag and have restricted my purchases to lowbrow art, alternative health, and foreign fashion magazines. For everything else, I turn to the web.

So, I really appreciate blogs like Fashion Copious and Knight Cat for keeping current on the visual haps and love this post Fashioninsing just did, featuring a bunch of January 2010 covers. There's a lot & here are a few of my faves...

Lara Stone Tells It Like It Is

“When I think about my job now, it’s so easy. Because you get so much free time, you get to travel everywhere. The people are nice and fun and easy and relaxed. You get to smoke at work. You make lots of money. Where are you ever going to find another job where you don’t have a boss or responsibilities, really, except to get on an airplane and just show up? It’s a bit worrying.” — Lara Stone recounts her perfect life for W. (source: fashionista)

Thank You, Ms. Stone! No super model is ever ever EVER allowed to complain about her job or try to convince us that it's hard work. Their line of biz may be short lived, but most of us will never know such privilege & pampering, not to mention obscene beauty & wealth. Enjoy it while it lasts, honey!

Pilfered Magazine Sweetness

I am in LOVE with Pilfered Magazine, and, as you can probably tell from my last post (boo! hoo!) I needed something to cheer me up. This pic is going a long way toward doing that.
