how to: test it!

Played around with a new setup for our girl Halle – clearly, we had to step in as models (oh, if we must). Here’s what we got:

And here’s the application in full effect:

A prime example of practice making perfect. HOLLA!!!!

THE MUTHA OF ALL VINTAGE/THRIFT STORES HAS LANDED!!!!

OFF. THE . CHAIN. SERIOUSLY. GO.

1900 square feet of vintage and thrift delights – read that again, Cherubs.
Finally brought to fruition by the incomparable master of “Ooh’s” and “Ahh’s!”, Suzette Sundae, this recycling superstore will not fail to make both you and your wallet squeal as you frolic together through the hand-picked finds. We’ve already had a VIP special sneak peak, and we’re telling you….we can’t even tell you. Guest DJ’s, live shows, movies on the rooftop (oh, we didn’t tell you there was a rooftop hangout spot? Our bad.)…not to mention the largest and most inexpensive stock of vintage and thrift threads, accessories and housewares ever known to humankind. But don’t get it twisted, the opening is invite only, so better sign up or face the wrath of Dottie, Suzette’s pom-poochie and beloved store mascot.

all I want for christmas is a sensible production number and some break-it-down by Vera Ellen

…uh, yes, Mr. Bartender: We’ll have an 18″ waist on ballerina legs with a serious splash of John Brascia – extra sass – please.

P.S. The freak-out flip at the :49 mark of “Abraham” alone already made our New Year.

Peace, Love and Tear-It-Up

Okay, so we don’t usually follow a video with a video, but it’s Woodstock Remembrance Time, and there’s no way we’re doing anything else to commemorate it. Prepare to go to Hippy Heaven, courtesy of Carlos Santana’s mescaline-induced trip and then 19-year-old Michel Shrieve’s mind-blowing drum solo, with the legendary Woodstock performance of Soul Sacrifice…man.

ain't nothing like the real thing, baby

So, Katie Holmes performed C’mon Get Happy a la Judy Garland on the 100th episode of SYTYCD. You know, good for her, she gave her best twirl out there, no doubt…we’d just rather watch the real deal. We thought you would, too.

killer color combo of the month (or two)

Just yummy and nummy.

breezy-turquoise1raspberry1navy1

and for our example du jour we chose fresh water pearl and chalcedony dangle earrings by Jack & Ginger (www.jacknginger.com) against a backdrop of a vintage navy lace cocktail dress (Dolly’s, Durham, NC). But don’t fret, stylish men, you can use this color palette as well for a fresh and vibrant look – think how amazing a suit (or relaxed version of a suit) would look in these colors!
