Falafel place

I'm on the move. Again.
I liked the stuff on their wall. Ordered a falafel wrap. It was salty. Lots of salty. Cute place, though. In Halifax, by the way. But it looks a lot like this Chinese restaurant in NYC. Could totally be the same restaurant.

Sky's the limit for fun ceilings

Often forgotten in the department of interior design are the ceilings. People don't always look up unless something has hit them on the head. Gawkers are often oblivious to ceilings. Such a shame. Here's a friendly reminder from an Indian restaurant in Berkeley to often crane your head skyward.

I'm gawking while I wonder

This is Nancy Zhang. Isn't she the cutest girls you have ever seen?



Her outfits first caught my eye on Lookbook.nu because they're usually accompanied by a cute little picture but gimmicks aside she has great style. They definitely speak volumes about her character. Seeing as I haven't met her, I'm going on the assumption that she's cute, quirky, and very laid-back- someone I'd love to meet.



She embraces trends but also retains a true sense of herself. She often includes unusual details that teeter between costume and everyday clothing which I love. The "blogosphere" seems to be dominated by teenagers who dress like they've just stepped out of a Urban Outfitters catalog which I don't have a problem with but sometimes I just wish there was something more.



People who know me well know that I have weirdly high standards to the point where even I don't meet them all that often and I'm thrilled to find someone with what I think is truely great style. Sometimes I feel I want to dress just like her.



She's talented too. She puts a lot of her artwork on her blog "It's Nancy's New Blog".
