So it’s been a MINUTE since I was in Cali.
Like been back on the east coast for almost three months kinda minute..
So it seems like as good a time as any to blog about the rest of my time in California.
You’ll remember from my blog post called California Love, that I was in San Diego with my ma while she was on business. One of the most interesting things that I did while I was in the Golden State was spend a day in L.A.
I was super stoked to experience, but in my head I was going to walk the streets with Elvis, John Wayne and Elizabeth Taylor – imagine my confusion when I rolled up and they weren’t there.
I’m obsessed with old Hollywood.
The glitz, the glam, the romanticized version of it all.
LA circa 2018 is not quite the same – enjoyable, but not quite so romantic. 10/10 would go back, but honestly seen enough of downtown to satisfy me – I think I’ll stay out of there for a while.
MARILYN MONROE’S FORMER HOUSE.
THE ‘EIGHT EIGHTY TWO’ IS WRITTEN IN HER HANDWRITING, WHICH ADDS TO THE CHARM IF YA ASK ME.
JOHN WAYNE USED TO LIVE IN THIS CONDO COMPLEX.
I DIDN’T SEE HIM WHILE I WAS THERE, BUT I LOOKED REAL HARD.
JUST IN CASE, YA KNOW?
THE HOTEL FROM PRETTY WOMAN – RICHARD GERE WASN’T THERE IN A LIMO
BUT LIKE, IT WAS STILL COOL TO SEE, YA KNOW?
THE NEXT TIME IM EVEN CLOSE TO L.A. – I’M STAYING AT THE BEVERLY HILLS HOTEL.
I NEED THE AESTHETIC AND THE INSPIRATION FOR A DETAILED BRANDING MOMENT.
(IF YOU DON’T KNOW WHAT I’M TALKING ABOUT – STALK THEIR WEBSITE)
So, long story short – I’ll definitely be going back to L.A., I’m not famous yet.. But feel like it’s coming soon 😉 . But avoiding downtown, probably, and pretending I’m bojuee in Beverly Hills the whole time – fake it til ya make it, ya know?
