Digs: Sarah and Zain

Mama and son get cute in the kitchen.

We're saying farewell to Summer and finally ready to face new routines over here. We can't wait to share all our new friends and neighbors with you. This week, we visit marketing maven, Sarah Barkawi of Honey Agency and her curly-topped tot, Zain Oliver in Midtown Sac's Poverty Ridge (a stones-throw from Racks Vintage). Scarlet-lipped and bubbly, Sarah opened up the doors of her sweet California bungalow to Celisse Muller's lens, introducing us to her vast collection of local-art, pieces of her Palestinian heritage, and impressive succulent compilation while her darling little guy entertained us on the porch. Click for more of the curated home chalk-full of stylish finds and family love. 

Sarah and her family recently bought the cute craftsman bungalow in Poverty Ridge.
