T: I am so in love with the Alice Windows! Thanks for sharing them with me! At first I thought the rabbit was real, but then I realized probably not; that could be excruciatingly messy! Can't wait to see the rest. Counting down the days till the movie opens! Love, kitty

"And its new style is difficult to pin down as well—it’s been described as “hippie chic,” but its promiscuous blend of periods and references is an Adler trademark, and alternately recalls the Mod Sixties, the feel-good Seventies, and the classic Rat Pack vibe that Palm Springs is known for."   "This town, after all, used to be where the stars fled to from Hollywood—and the Parker is a conscious attempt to recapture the glamor of those bygone days." "Palm Springs skewed older, blander, and more Republican over the decades, but those trends are reversing, and today th...

There is something about single beds... (Image via domino) I would love to sleep in a bunk bed again... if just for one night. I can just imagine the conversations that would take place in these rooms!   Summer memories are made here and here and here.
