past fashion choice most cringe-worthy?
I used to wear Calvin Klein overalls in high school. From Costco. Why? Why?! Although now overalls are apparently coming back. Yeesh.

clothing item you can’t wait to purchase?
A new pair of brown leather boots for Fall!

what’s your take on seattle style?
It can thoroughly be improved upon. A little less fleece, please. We’re a major metropolitan city! Let’s start dressing that way! Leave the NorthFace for recreational activities. Although I respect that our city doesn’t take itself too seriously, style-wise. Fashion is supposed to be fun, not uptight.

white belts, yes or no?
Oh Lord, it really depends on the context, but usually it’s a big no.

name a song and cocktail that were made for each other-
French 75 and “Le Foule” by Edith Piaf.

the boys did a bang up job of rocking faux hair. from marie antoinette, to rocker… the girls didn’t have all the fun. to see the men represent, click

this guy was my andy warhol of the night.

wigs – the girls – sam remix – seattle

wigs was a great theme. what i really liked, was how much fun people had with it. for a selection of ladies (and those who were dressed as ladies) be sure to click

girl-about-town sylvia o’stayformore- loved her go-go style

my camera did not do justice to the depth (and assault on the eyes) of this yellow

sanda and crew…

what i would give to have someone teach me to apply lashes like these and have them stay on all night!

cara’s cute lavender bob…

use of color – alicia betty – pioneer square

admin — Fri, 04 Jun 2010 17:21:49 +0000

alicia betty was a sweetie to let us (and all the other people) accost her on the street. when we stopped to ask her for a photo, i think some people thought she was famous (and also wanted photos), to which she responded- don’t you know who i am? i’m alicia betty!

stripes – dustin – pioneer square

admin — Fri, 04 Jun 2010 10:30:15 +0000

last night was artwalk…i headed down to my usual haunts, and roamed about. i feel like pioneer square isn’t getting the traffic it used to. downtown seemed to have more going on…

also, since i shirked my posting duties for most of the week (this isn’t my day job) i’ve decided you get the fruits of all my effort TODAY. check back throughout the day for my whole artwalk series posted in one day.

next week i’m hoping i’ll have something from sam remix. have a great weekend- xoxox k.

perfect hue – tara – FACE – south downtown

admin — Fri, 07 May 2010 10:35:13 +0000

the end of the series from the FACE event- perfect finish, tara and her quintessential red lip (why can’t i find a red that suits me so well?). next week come see who i found at artwalk… anyone attending ballard artwalk?

like buttah – nonie – FACE – south downtown

admin — Mon, 03 May 2010 10:30:25 +0000

did you follow nonie of butter – london’s vids at new york fashion week posted on wear what when? i caught a few and loved this backstage glimpse of what seems like a far off land. nonie was one of the first people i saw at the FACE event and i loved her fuchsia leopard paired with the black tight/black shoe… so chic. also check out her polish (or varnish as sheena says- i’m in love with chimney sweep and snog ((and the names))
