'You Got the Wicked Style' - Finding Inspiration in Los Angeles' Japanese Culture

One of the hardest things about being a fashion writer is finding inspiration. Throughout the years, I've used various "muses" to awaken my imagination, depending on where my head is at. Lately I've been drawn to Japan. My budget hasn't allowed me to visit yet, so I've had to make do with the Japanese scene in Los Angeles. Starting with Royal/T, a new art gallery in Culver City, I discovered the total shopping experience at their gift shop. Their brochure reads: "Inspired by contemporary Japanes...

The NO Maintenance Bonzai

I love bonzai, but I don’t have any in the house. Just the idea of it makes me a little nervous. I have a fairly green thumb, but I’d worry about the little bugger’s demise constantly. The Atomic Bonzai might be a good alternative to we bonsai-loving bonsai- phobes. It’s actually a 3-D sculptural puzzle that stands 7" x 7" when fully assembled. Available at Nova68 for $24.99, and ships free via ground within the U.S. No pruning, no watering, no worries. Excellent.

I said a prayer and played the jukebox Anthony Gourdine

Click images for desktop size: "Untitled" by Unknown I found some work. Its walking a dog for two days. I like the dog plenty, a graying black mutt with happy blue eyes and a big desire to play. I don't like the woman who hired me. She's watching the dog for the owners who are in hospital. I probably would have liked them. The woman described the owners as an "older couple". As in, she couldn't understand why an "older couple" got such a young dog . . . The little thing has to be at least 12. Th...
