On the Corner of Somewhere: Alexis from North On Harper

                                                                                                                                                           
Hi!  I'm Alexis and I'm super excited to be visiting The Citizen Rosebud.  I write the blog North On Harper and had the opportunity to meet Bella during Fashion Week, Fall 2011.  And suffice it to say, I am crazy for her.  Warm, welcoming, intelligent, beautiful—basically everything I had expected her to be…

So, when Bella invited me to write about PLACE, I was beyond excited.   But then I got intimidated.  After all, PLACE is really a broad subject.  And it is important.  More than where a person is or lives, PLACE plays an integral role in one’s identity.

I live in West Hollywood, California.  I have for my entire adult life.  Many major memories are associated with this place: friends, jobs—I even met my husband here.  West Hollywood is full of contrasting character.  There are both glamorous and iconic elements, as well as dull & average.  I love the variety of architecture that can be seen, as well as the art that can be found around the city.

Over the years I have watched how these things have informed my aesthetic.  I wouldn’t say I dress “LA” (that has much more to do with the Southern California laid back attitude), but I do see how my visual environment has helped to shape both my sense of personal style and that of my home.

Allow me to share some of my favorite places- both around town and in my home-

   Thank you Alexis- for sharing a piece of your place with us!
