I’m one of those people that means it wholeheartedly when they say they will do something. Trouble is, it just takes me forever to get around to doing it! I’ve been getting lots of requests for pictures of the apartment, and now that I’ve been here almost 6 weeks I finally took a bunch. Therefore, this post is not going to be a lot of talk, but you’ll get to see where I’ve been living and how nice it is!
Zac and I always have a lot of pride in our space. Finding the apartment, moving in, and decorating for us are well thought out processes. In other words, I’m quite happy with how the apartment turned out, and can’t wait to finally share it with you!
The bed in the bedroom! I love our comforter, a mere $30 from Target
Our apartment has no closets! This is the solution, also a mere $30 from Container Store
Japanese party lights, from an import store on Irving Street
His and Hers mags: The Economist for Zac, Marie Claire for me
Beloved photo of the group of friends known as Le Quad, from our “Passed out in Paso” camping trip
Animal Menagerie
Jewelery and keepsakes on the short dresser, including a vintage photo of my grandparents
Reception here sucks, so we have a landline. Don’t I feel classy using this phone to call home!
Keepsakes on the tall dresser. Photo my sister took of the Painted Ladies in San Fran and real working oil lamp!
Couch in the study
Silent film star posters! Clara Bow and Louise Brooks
Computer desk
Photo stickers on the computer: 2NE1, my favorite K-pop band, and Zac and friend Allie from Pika Pika! in Japantown

My area: Sewing machine and inspriration board

Currently reading: Cleopatra, A Life, by Stacey Shiffe. Amazing book!

We live here!
What’s behind the fridge? . . .

Spices and spice rack (we cook a LOT!)
The cupboards are too high for me so we found this little stool on Irving Street
Bathroom
Bathroom art
My collection of tiny perfumes
Sink art (I have a thing for Clara Bow if you couldn’t tell!)
Sink! The toothbrush cup was a cup of sake our friend Helen brought us from Japan
Vintage hat rack of my grandfather’s with raincoats along with my photos from Europe and a poster from Israel
Chinese doormat from Irving Street
There were so many photos, so I uploaded them in a gallery instead of single pictures. Just click on the small images to make them bigger. A bit different from me, but I’ve been trying to take more pictures lately and I guess it paid off. Enjoy!

Oh my goodness. This is just my style! Mix of old and eclectic. LOVE IT! It is absolutely charming!
It’s all so lovely and organized and perfectly Mo and Zac style. I feel like I visited except I haven’t and really, really want to. I miss you guys in San Francisco!!!!!! All the best!
I love it so much! I am so jealous! I have been living in Boston for 3 years and my apartment still looks plain 😦
I love all the pictures. It looks like such a charming apartment.
