I never thought i would love LA as much as i did. I mean, i knew it was going to be amazing, just not THAT amazing!
The flight over went surprisingly smoothly and fast, arriving in LA approximately 1 hour before we left Melbourne – weird, right? Went straight to the hotel via crazy armenian taxi driver. The Roosevelt in Hollywood was beautiful, dimly lit and filled with beautiful rich colours, dark leather chesterfield and touches of red velvet and gold ornate fixtures. I especially loved the front main doors that sparkled like crystal, at all times – so pretty!

Tuesday consisted of more shopping, including a visit to MAC (make-up, not the computers) where I had my first of many celebrity sightings – Beecher from Oz was getting his make up done, awesome! Then headed back to the hotel to get ready for a big night out. My friend Kyle mentioned a free gig at The Roxy with All Hail The Yeti and Gemini Syndrome. Both bands totally blew me away and I had one of THE best nights of my life. A couple of raspberry vodkas down and once the bands finished, we headed next door to The Rainbow Bar & Grill and continued partying. I met so many lovely people, everyone was super nice and friendly and the Rainbow is definitely a great place to party.

The next 5 days consisted of eating lots of disgustingly awesome, oversized meals, drinking raspberry vodka, meeting cool peeps, sightseeing (including a drive to Santa Monica & Venice Beach), a tour of celebrity homes, more raspberry vodka, partying till 5am, sleep ins followed by room service and shopping on melrose avenue.
