Back to Black

It was wholly and completely saddening to hear of the death of Amy Jade Winehouse as I woke up in Las Vegas, I have been thinking of her, what her work meant to me, and how she inspired many in her tragically short lifetime.

I remember vividly the hearing her voice for the first time, but even more ingrained into my mind was the first time I saw an image of her. Not only was I shocked by the color of her skin, but I was pleasantly surprised at how her style perfectly portrayed the modernization of jazz.  Her beehive, vintage style tattoos, and insanely winged eyeliner will forever remind us of her, and the talent she bestowed upon us all.

Was there a red carpet at Coachella?

Coachella is famous for ushering Summer in, and this year was no different. Young Hollywood came out in masses attempting to find the Perfect outfit for the sweltering heat, all while maintaining an "I just threw this on" look.  Performing or not, these were the best looks of the festival...

Westwood chooses West coast

Wednesday March 30th, 2011 Noted London designer Vivienne Westwood officially opened her first store in North America at 8320 Melrose Ave in Los Angeles. The Red carpet was studded with stars famously associated with the designer and hosted by Mad Men's Christina Hendricks who is the spokes model for Weswood's new line of jewlery. 

8320 Melrose Ave.

Brulesque model Dita Von Teese was stunning in a black Westwood design complete with hat and lace gloves. Von Teese wore a one of a kind Vivienne Westwood gown in November 2005 when she married Marilyn Manson, who also attended the opening festivities. 

Additional stars on the red carpet were Kristin Davis, Lupe Fiasco, Kelis, Mischa Barton, and Lenora Claire. It was said that Westwood chose Los angeles over New York because Angelenos tend to take more fashion risks! The store houses all lines designed under the Westwood lable.
