I had the pleasure of stepping out of my comfort zone and go to the crappiest part of Los Angeles all in the name of CATS! The Cat Show LA at 101 Gallery had some of my favorite artists on hand with their rendition of cats. Ray Caesar, Marion Peck, Gary Baseman, …

So, last Thursday was the 1st Annual  Wowie Awards at Universal Studios in Los Angeles by the fabulous people at World of Wonder.  They are the people behind “RuPaul’s Drag Race” and the new Britney Spears documentary on E! called “I am Britney Jean”. Some stars in attendance were Adam Lambert, LaToya …

About a month ago, we adopted our fourth cat, Minky. I heard someone say that if you have more than three cats, you’re bat-shit. I guess, I’m beyond bat-shit. She is about 3 years old and was rescued from an awful hoarding situation in Southern California. I found her photo …

If in LA, stop by the Gusford Gallery to satisfy your meat and luxury item cravings – together! Artist Andrea Hasler has created “Burdens of Excess” through chewed up meat molded to Dior bags and Jimmy Choos. Seriously, my first thought was, are those Kim Kardashian’s cankles on display and did someone …

Chinese artist Zheng Hongxiang  painted these striking pieces a rhino, red box and a naked dude. I love art like this- really subliminal and metaphoric. I could stare at it for hours. Gallerist Xin Fu has a gallery, Fu Xin Gallery in Shanghai, China and Las Vegas in case you want to see her collections up …

Recently, I went to The Geffen Contemporary at MOCA near Little Tokyo in Los Angeles for the ‘Art in the Streets’ exhibit. I was super excited about this one because: A) it was the first time a major museum has dedicated an entire exhibit to the art form of graffiti …

I thought I was the only with a Kidrobot obsession! It’s nice to know that Artist Bella Bronson shares the same insanity with me. Maybe we can share candy-colored strait jackets or something. Bella gave dunnys, munnys, ugly dolls, be@rbricks, and other vinyl toys a home on a cool hat! …

Here is a vintage find from a shop on Melrose Avenue in Los Angeles. I’m always surprised when I find something cool in LA, since I find that a lot of vintage is either really overpriced or not that great as say, vintage stores in New England. It’s a 1950s …

Here is what I wore for some interviews I did last month. First up is a vintage 1970’s Castleberry tweed suit I wore for my Johnny Depp interview for his new movie ‘Rango’. It was a long skirt when I bought it and looked totally dowdy. So, I cut it …
