Hello Darlings, It's been a long winter working on my big new project. But finally I am hitting the road again to visit sunny southern California followed by some big mountain skiing in Whistler, British Columbia!

This Sunday, February 24th is the Super Bowl of Hollywood events, as the actors take center stage at the Oscar Awards. Last year, I was fortunate to be invited to some of the best Oscar parties, such as the OK! Magazine party hosted by Adrian Grenier and the cast of Entourage. So I definitely have high hopes for the 2013 version, which is this Friday night in Hollywood.

Also on my to-do list is lunching at Mauro Cafe at Fred Segal on Melrose Avenue, hiking Runyon Canyon, photographs on Santa Monica pier, a road trip up the Pacific Coast Highway, and most important of all getting some sand between my toes on Zuma Beach in Malibu.

And while a big of a packing nightmare, en route home I have a few days planned to ski in Whistler and explore Vancouver. So excited for both, since I love skiing and have wanted to explore Vancouver for a very long time!

With Love...

Marta
