The Pfister hotel’s artist in residence program has housed painter after painter. But finally in a change of pace the people voted for a close family friend of mine, Timothy Westbrook, a costume designer. He has made costumes for the play The Magic Flute, and uses recycled materials in his outfits and fabrics. I saw a fabric with cassette tape woven into it when I went to his gala opening. The hotel is gorgeous and so are his designs.
The Pantone color of the year combines the look-at-me boldness of redwith the warmth of yellow: tangerine. Sephora carries so many tangerine things, from super bright to cool copper. So many awesome ways to dip into the orange trend without going all-out siren.
ABC family’s new show, Jane by Design, is super fun to watch. The main character, Jane Quimby, wears girly,retro outfits with a dash of boho. She’s my new style inspiration!
The founders of Juicy Couture are Gela Nash-Taylor and Pamela Skaist-Levy. They are the only ones who know what the name actually means, but they won’t tell anyone. By 2oo9, the label had almost 70 shops in the United States, and 32 overseas. Juicy Couture launched Dirty English, a menswear line , but it closed in five years due to them wanting to expand their womenswear line. Juicy Couture is a mega-label and that’s why I picked them for Label Focus.
