The practice of yoga with the idea of relaxing the mind, has always intrigued me. I've wanted to find a place that I could go to and workout ever since my move. Before you know it I found myself in search of a yoga studio. By using yelp and filtering through locations, comparing photos and reading reviews I found myself a match. I was scheduled and very nervous for my first Alignment Hatha at Ocean Yoga in Pacifica, Ca. The closest I had been to yoga prior was in my living room with youtube or a girlfriend showing me.

I was transformed after my first yoga session, the class was not easy and you have to be one with your mind. I always thought it was silly the whole inhale exhale, but that is so real. I am inspired and cannot wait for my next session and to learn new poses and techniques.

I've discovered my deepest passions when my mind is most clear. By minimizing all distractions and removing unnecessary items, allows me to have a clear vision. These are the recurring thoughts as I style for specific themes and moments in my life.

One evening, it dawned on me that it had been a while since my last bubble bath. As I lit my Jo Malone candle, I realized how lovely the trio was arranged within the marble tray. The soft pinks & creamy white flowers softened the vanity top, layered with a wood detail for added texture. Between the wood and glow of the fire with the detail of the necklace provides a delicate warmth throughout.

My passion for interiors and love for styling allows me to create and capture these brief moments in time.
