Lauren’s House – Part Two (Or Should I Say Les Deux)
‘ At the risk of becoming a stalking site solely about The Hills, I just had to share my pics from visiting LC’”‘”‘s house this weekend. Conveniently, Lauren‘”‘”‘s new pad is located only half a mile from Speidi’”‘”‘s apartment building on the cutest street in the world! 🙂 Her house is gorgeous in person –…

Contempo Casuals from “Clueless”
‘ Happy 2015, folks! Now that the holidays have come to a close, I will (hopefully) be back to my regularly scheduled blogging. So here goes. Stalking is obviously my favorite pastime, but shopping comes in at a close second. So when I get an opportunity to combine the two, I jump at it. A…

‘ I’m taking a break from my regularly scheduled Big Little Lies reporting today to bring you a post about one of my favorite buildings in all of Pasadena – The Stuart at Sierra Madre Villa.

The Grim Cheaper, who happened to hear me, looked up from his ever-present laptop and said, “That’s Pickwick Bowl – part of Pickwick Gardens –…

The Daily Dose Café from “Scandal”
‘ UPDATE – After closing and then reopening briefly as Café Société in 2018, this spot shuttered for good early last year. It currently remains vacant. There’s pretty much nothing I love more than a cool coffee house. So when Cupcakes and Cashmere blogger Emily Schuman wrote about the Daily Dose Café, a downtown Los…

Viola’s Mansion from “Monster-in-Law”
‘ The second Monster-in-Law location that I set my sights on tracking down this past weekend was the gargantuan mansion owned by Viola Fields (aka Jane Fonda) in the flick. Once again, fellow stalker Nick had done most of the legwork on this one by discerning that the house was located in Pasadena and had…

The American Cement Building from “Scream 3”
‘ While I am admittedly not a fan of MacArthur Park, there is a property situated on the border of it that I would absolutely LOVE to live in – The American Cement Building. Mike from, MovieShotsLA, pointed out the dramatically stunning structure many moons ago during one of our very first stalks together and…

The Julien’s Auctions Hollywood Legends Exhibition
‘ This past Saturday afternoon I dragged the Grim Cheaper out to stalk the Hollywood Legends exhibition currently being hosted by Julien’s Auctions, a Beverly Hills-area auction house which specializes in entertainment memorabilia, celebrity artifacts, and high-profile estates. Prior to each auction it hosts, Julien’s opens up its exhibition hall to the public offering them…
