LOVA

Filed under: check it out, clothes, fashion — admin @ 10:10 pm

i recently scored an internship at a showroom in downtown LA. they rep some very legit and amazingly designed brands. today, i want to feature LOVA. it is a label coming out of LA started by three guys who have amazing style and taste in designing. i am looking forward to some samples “falling on my lap,” i hear it is a perk of the job. it is going to be an adventure seeing this brand grow and blow up.

saturday afternoon i went up to LA LA LAnd for a quick meeting and then to hang out with my good friend adam kalma. unfortunately, i forgot my camera to document our adventures, but i bummed some the world wide web. LA is winning me over every time i visit there. i really like where the city is going. adam and i enjoyed a great dinner in los feliz at trattoria farfalla then had dessert at their sister restaurant 3 doors down, vinoteca:

soon enough i will be moving out to belmont heights, loma and broadway, with rob. i came to the conclusion that we are at that age when college frat boy house is out and cool independent young adults is in. and with this mindset, it is time to invest into good, quality furniture…..
