I met The Sartorialist...Scott Schuman


I met The Sartorialist...Scott Schuman

I showed up at the event/book signing for The Sartorialist without having rsvp'd. I brought my paperback book and went for it. I was the third person to get my book signed, and I was surprised....he was nice. He introduced himself, exhanged witty banter with his fans and came off charming. I had heard otherwise, but I was glad he was different than what I had expected.

The only Ayyyy yahy yahhhhhy of the night were the fans. It was like a costume ball of people wearing their most "interesting" outfits they had to show up for Schuman.

Highhhhh Top Sneakers


In Argentina I spotted these high top Converse-like sneakers on children. A friend I was with bought them for her daughter, but we never found them for adults. Ta-dah! Found them at Forever 21!

Hawaii Five NO


Shame on you Target. You have worked so hard to be seen as modern, hip and desired. Partnerships with cool brands like Converse, Anna Sui, Paul & joe, etc etc...insert record scratch...Tommy Bahama style shirts? Ayyyy yahy yahhhhhy. Ladies, steer the men in your life AWAY from this rack. Please.

Jackets....Motorcycle

I have become obsessed with finding the perfect motorcycle jacket - leather or not.

Swatch Watch



Remember how cool it was to get a Swatch in the '80's? Who is to say it can't be cool again? I spotted this Pollock style design in some magazine and searched it out on their site....and it's only $55.

An Alternative To Hermes (Medor Watch)

Ya know... I'm quite taken with the Hermes Medor Watch. I love it. I love how it looks like a bracelet with a little bit of a rock n' roll edge, but when you pop it open, it's a watch. It's classic. Well - Marc Jacobs has given me a alternative for a fraction of the price. For about $250 I can have this fun watch from Marc by Marc Jacobs, or I can shell out over $1800 for the Hermes. Hmmm....

Mad About Plaid


I love plaid. Every time it come back in vogue I try. I try so hard to make it work on me and I just end up looking stupid. I've just about given up.....and then I spotted this scarf. I love scarves. Jean jacket and a scarf for LA winters, and done. A plaid scarf! Yay. Running to get this....or wait until it goes on sale, after all it's still 80 degrees out.

Banana Republic

Hair Bands


The cutest girl on my last production shoot always wore these cute scarf things in her hair and I through she looked adorable. Sort of 80's, like the wacky friend from Pretty In Pink, yet....more....chic, and not as wacked out. Mind you, this is in Argentina, where everything right now is '80's. From the random 80's tracks that weren't necessarily #1 ever...and some styles that will eventually make it here.

Gossip Girl brought back the headband. The preppy hair band with a big bow....but Argentina is bringing back the scarf bow hair accessory. If only I could figure out how to make it work in my head, I would have bought a ton of these things in different patters.

Trouser Undies


I had to share this interesting underwear that appears like trousers. Men, are these sexy? Interesting for sure. Sexy? For $120 someone better give them to me...cause I am not buying a pair of trouser underwear that only few people will spot me in.

Agent Provocateur

Is that a ----- on your sweater?



It may not be news to you, but to me, it was a eye opener to find out that sexy and expensive lingerie shop, Agent Provocateur makes outerwear. Outerwear that might make you blush, that is. Only the brave ones could rock this Betsy Johnson circa 1985 looking sweater adorned with penis's. Yes, Penis's.

-A shout out to Buzzy who sent me this link.

Jäger Condoms



En Serio? Dotted? I have heard of ribbed condoms, but dotted? And strong? What does that mean? I don't know but I had to take this photo opportunity in a pharmacy in Buenos Aires.

Knee High...flip flops


An interesting take on the knee high look, that seems to be the hot look - boots and leggings. Boots. Leggings. BOOTS. LEGGINGS. But A mash up of leggings with a flip flop? My new favorite saying? Ayyyy yahy yahhhhhy.
