On Sunday we had a day off to spend with friends. We had lunch at Yellow House Cafe. It was so much fun and so delicious. We had the best korean food and blooming flower teas. Next, we stopped by a flea market (at Fairfax High School) and did a little shopping with our pals Jenny and Anna. Too bad there was so much good furniture there—grrr!
It's always nice to connect with friends during business trips! We'll share more about our trip soon. xo. Elsie + Emma

Mmm, that plate of food Elsie is holding up looks really good! As does the shirt Emma found at the flea. Sounds like it was a fun time.
can’t believe you were in ktown! omg. i wish i had know.
That looks so fun!
so fun – i love a good flea market and it always seems that the best furniture are at the ones I visit while traveling :).
The Melrose Trading Post is one of my favorite spots on a Sunday Morning. I found some great dresses there for amazing prices! Sunday flea market shopping is always a good choice. 🙂

Wow. The food looks tasty and the photos are really well taken. You girls look beautiful in them. 🙂
korean food is definitely not for me! glad you enjoyed it tho 😀
Any idea as to how they make this iced blooming tea?
I know the bulbs open in hot water, but the iced part..? or did you just recieve it after the hot tea had been cooled and the bulbs already open?
Oh my! I love everything about the photo of the redhead in the black and white dress and large brim hat. Stunning!
Also, thanks for inadvertently letting us crazy busy ladies know that it’s ok to take a day off to spend with friends, even on a business trip!

What a cute cafe. It is always so much fun to get together with friends and just do “stuff”
Looks like a cozy little place! I miss Ktown in LA! Blooming flower teas look amazingly pretty!
Oh! That looks like so much fun! Good food and good friends! The shopping looks amazing as well. Fun times.

This looks so awesome – just what I would like to do myself for the weekend + a flea market on the top of that. So jealous as vintage is totally crap in Hong Kong. However, we have the awesome fabric markets instead =)

Ahhhh this looks so nice! I haven’t been to LA in 5 years and I’ve been super hardcore itching to go back.
I’m so fascinated by the blooming flower tea. I want to try it!
That food looks delicious. And I ALWAYS find amazing furniture when I am thousands of miles from home. Go figure.
