FYIF: For Your Information Fridays

FYIF (For your information Friday): Spray tans look best on the 3rd day. 


I've managed to travel through 3 different time zones (and then back), spend a total of 11 hours on a plane, 2 nights in a (bad ass) hotel room, eat a $61 dollar breakfast, and get a facial massage. I think it's safe to say the past 3 days have been busy - so please pardon my absence from the blogosphere. 


Needless to say, I am home safely, on my couch, drinking water by the Brita pitcher full trying to get back to east coast time as quick as possible while watching a caveman (John) devour prime rib as if it were the last piece of meat on the planet. This weekend is jam-packed FULL of all my favorite things: BFF's graduation (HOLLA!!!), family, Easter, grandparents, and Reggae Sunday (my reason for living). Basically, drum roll please....lots and lots of day drinking!


While I have your attention, I would like to return to the topic of my bad-ass hotel room. If by chance you are in Beverly Hills, you are rich, and you like mirrors, I have found your mother ship: SLS Hotel at Beverly Hills. This hotel just to happens to also be the place where Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odem lived after they were married and where Christina Aguilera had her birthday party last year. It's pretty freakin cool. The rooms are dimly, let me repeat DIMLY lit, there are smokey mirrors covering 99% of the walls the room, and a foux mink throw on every bed. I can only imagine this to be every porn stars idea of heaven. The hotel is an experience all on its own, and definitely worth stopping in to check out if you are ever in the area. It's like Allison in Worderland meets the Sopranos in a Hunting Lodge: Oversized masculine furniture mixed with clean whites, illuminated deer busts, and lots and lots of mirrors. Monkeys play a huge role in the decor of the space and can be spotted everywhere you look throughout the building including the pictures on the walls and on the (super cute) coffee mugs. The hotel uses the letters SLS as an acroynim to spell out the cutest sayings on everything from the beverage napkins to your room check-out statement. Ex: Sip Light Sustenance and See Life Sideways. The vibe of the hotel fits the quirkiness of the decor and the hip, trendy, funky feeling of the space. Please do yourself a favor, find a boyfriend,a lover or get a husband and go experience the sexiness of the SLS.
