Geometric in Eagle Rock

These pictures were taken in my old stomping grounds of Eagle Rock, California where I went to undergraduate school at Occidental College. Like many areas in Los Angeles, Eagle Rock is now undergoing a gentrification process where hip new dinning establishments, shops, colorful walls and yoga studios are cropping up in the downtown area. The funniest thing I saw during my last visit to Eagle Rock was a realtor's sign that literally read "Hipster Open House". That sign pretty much said it all. When I went to school there, the area was just on the cusp of this movement, but now it's clearly in full swing.

My husband and I were actually on our way to our favorite Polish restaurant in the area, which to be quite honest is the only Polish restaurant I know of, when I spotted this wall. It matched the geometric print of my skirt just perfectly! When I was in college, I would have never imagined that I would have a blog, because I am pretty sure blogs didn't exist at the time, but even if they did, I probably wouldn't have known because technology is not my forte! It wasn't back then and it certainly isn't now, which just goes to prove that while some things change, others will always remain the same.
