Bianca’s Beautiful L.A.- “Olvera Street”
Bianca's Beautiful L.A.- "Olvera Street" As a native Angelino, i've spent my fair share of time frolicking and eating down on Olvera Street. I'd even go so far as to say that it's one of my all time favorite places in the entire city...its that good. Olvera Street is the oldest street in all of Los Angeles- it even still has some of the original cobblestones from yesteryear...and the original Avila Adobe (the oldest house of LA) that has been restored and turned into a museum that you can [...]

A few days ago, I was on the way home from having fro yo with the lovely Nola Singer. My mom called me to tell me that I had to see these bracelets that my 2 nieces brought over to my house.
