V Day 08

2008-02-14T18:59:00.000-08:00

This is what I got:

Happy eco-fashion-nerd-goth love day!

the doheny is in downtown

2008-02-14T00:22:00.000-08:00

Just came back from downtown LA bar mogul Cedd Moses' new hotspot THE DOHENY, an exclusive bar where you have to pay a membership fee of something in the tens of thousands of dollars to gain entrance. It opens tomorrow, but I was fortunate enough to be invited by 4copas, who showcased their incredible organic tequilas at the event. I tried two - one that had some alcohols I've never heard of before with some peach bitters and another with fresh squeezed blood oranges, which was a FANTASTIC cocktail served up to us by Mario Batali's former bartender - easily the yummiest cocktail I've had this year. I brought Tracy Hepler of the newly-launched hip and green social calendar yourdailythread.com with me, and we ended the night pleasantly surprised that the organic tequila tasted "smoother than Patron" on its own. 4copas will be at the LOVE IS IN THE AIR eco-luxe bridal salon on Feb. 29th - come try it there while getting a mani/pedi or experience it at the Doheny, conveniently located underneath the AEG / LA Live headquarters.

Chasing Health

2008-02-11T17:50:00.000-08:00

I became acquainted with Health's music through association with Crystal Castles, a music obsession of mine for awhile now, and I went to the El Rey a while back ago to watch their show and unfortunately didn't show up in time (but did see an amazing performance called Ultimate Reality by Dan Deacon).

Then I found out through my friend Ale at the Dublab that they were recording a music video for Health in Silverlake last weekend, so I rolled in to Materials and Applications - again too late and Health was gone, all I saw was some cool footage....darn! Apparently it doesn't pay to be fashionably late. But tonight, I'm crossing my fingers that the third time's the charm, and I will enter the world of Health groupie-dom, by going to see a show they are doing at the uber-cool Pehrspace Gallery in Little Filipinotown. $5, BYOB. Hope to see you (and Health) there...

Keep Shoes

2008-02-05T22:41:00.000-08:00

Rickey Kim of Evil Monito kindly gifted me these Keep shoes that have quickly become my favorite walking shoes. They are so comfortable and stylish in that LA hipster kind of way that now I want all of their shoes: every color, every style. Keep is a Los Angeles based company with a lot of soul and energy, check out this text I ripped from their "about us" section:

We do Keep for all the women who have their game tight, who work hard to make things happen, who spread positivity and energy around them, who take care of their loved ones and most importantly take care of themselves. We make Keep shoes for those women who are tired of clown shoes, too many bells and whistles, and the misappropriation of the color pink.

All Keep products are cruelty free and produced in audited, certified factories.
