1 Lola Hotel

Room Mate Hotels are very well designed and have awesome names {and personalities}. My favorite is Lola...

4 Yotel Hotel

The Yotel hotels are a group of well designed tiny spaces, that {at least from the images} don't seem claustrophobic. They are currently located in London and Amsterdam at/near the airports. They can be rented hourly or nightly- they would be perfect for a long layover. They seem like an upgrade from those capsule hotels...which totally freak me out. I like kinda futuristic feel and the efficient layout.

Has anyone ever stayed in one of these?

0 Destination Boston {Day 5}

We knew what we wanted to do on our last day in Boston before we had even booked a hotel: the South End Open Market...it was awesome, If I lived in Boston, I would totally want to have a booth with all of those fantastic artists {read: must see if you happen to be in Boston}. I picked up some fun photography and a couple of cute bags {more on those later...}

The area was artsy and cool, filled with galleries and bookstores.

And we found a place right at the market, the Gaslight, to have a fantastic breakfast {I know that omelet looks average, but it was the best one I've ever had: filled with goat cheese and tasty herbs..delish!}

1 Destination Boston {Day 2+3}

Our second day was spent mostly in class, but we did do some shopping on Newbury Street in the Back Bay Area...{I made one exciting purchase that I will tell you about when it comes in a few weeks...}

We had some great Tapas and Sangria and Tapeo on Newbury Street...

More pics from walking back to the hotel...the Boston Marathon Finish Line, Siamese hookup on the bridge, and the Convention Center at night...

We spent day 3 at the Exhibition and in class... The Exhibition was extensive, there was a model of the entire city of Boston and original Renzo Piano sketches {I was most excited about these...}

We had dinner at the Legal Test Kitchen...amazing swordfish...pics to come...

0 Destination Las Vegas {Part 2}

We had a blast in Las Vegas...here is a selection of my pics I took on the trip...

The Bellagio...where we saw O...it was completely amazing, the best Cirque show I've seen. The indoor garden was fantastic. I also fell in love with the parasols and the Chihuly ceiling...{note all the flower inspiration}

Moe flower inspiration from Treasure Island...

LOVE @ The Mirage...which had some really cool effects {and great music obviously}...


Details of the Red Rock Resort {where we stayed} I've stayed in some really nice hotels before, but this one topped them all...I really wanted to just move in forever... The bed was the most comfortable bed ever and the views of the canyon were stunning.

Downtown, old school Vegas {it was fun...but also dirty} and the Gambler's General Store that sells every gambling supply you can think of {I bought more dice than I know what to do with...}
