The other day, my friend/colleague Cheryl told me that MAC (Modern Appealing Clothing, not the makeup store) in Hayes Valley was having an uber-sale. Seeing as though I easily succumb to peer pressure, we went after work.
Now MAC isn’t your normal San Francisco store. It is the ultimate destination for label whores like myself. It’s [...]

I need a pair of leather gloves. And I need them now.
I have been on this search for a while and I still haven’t found a pair that fits me like – well – a glove. Either they are too loose, too tight or are just plain ugly. I want a pair of sleek gloves [...]
Having a moment with ‘Vintage Magazine’
Posted in Entertainment, Fashion, Pop Culture on Dec 1st, 2009
The new bi-annual publication, Vintage Magazine picked up where the innovative magazine, Flair by Fleur Cowles left off. The mag “pays homage to timeless design, fashion, culture, and the creative possibilities of print.”

Combining the DIY aesthetic of a punk era zine and the refined [...]

Saw these poor unfortunate souls last week while walking on the street. I decided to take candid pictures of them with my Blackberry and share them with the world:

What’s the point of the wallet chain?

This fourth of July wasn’t spent at a picnic nor was it spent at a street festival full of American flags, funnel cake (mmmmm) and fanny packs. It was spent mostly cleaning my apartment, watching Public Enemies (more on that later) and browsing the monolithic San Francisco Shopping Center for things I didn’t need. While [...]
