I’ve been getting really into the new HBO Series Game of Thrones. I am, admittedly, a huge fantasy/sci-fi nerd, though I am picky about what I like. HBO seems to have spared no expense o...
It’s impossible to put into words what I have lost and I refuse to cheapen it by discussing it in such a public forum. Though perhaps even this post is already too much. I simply wanted ...
I’ve had a Barney’s gift card burning a hole in my wallet since Christmas, but I haven’t been able to figure out what to spend it on. The card was for $200 and I didn’t...
I’m taking a much needed break from the store on Wednesday, when I’ll be heading down to Florida with some of my favorite ladies for a few days in the sun. As usual, I’ll sti...
Well, here it is! The store is completely finished! We’ve been open for a little over a week and the response has been amazing. I couldn’t be more proud of it . . . special thanks ...
Taking a little time off from working on the new space to go kind of nuts in New York. Depending on how much I get done, I might be able to squeeze in the Mueran Humanos show at Wierd on Wedne...
Justine D. was a huge influence on and a really important person in my life when I first moved to New York. Her parties (Motherfucker and Aktion at Lit to name a few) were always the best, her...
Some beautiful photos by Nikki Sneakers from the Religious To Damn release party. The record can be purchased here and it is highly recommended.
My love affair with leather is a highly conflicted relationship. As a vegetarian for over 15 years, I feel like it is something I should staunchly avoid. However, my love of well-constructed a...
My New Year’s Eve was awesome but I’ve felt like hell since. Sick with what feels like a cold but whatever it really is, it’s completely robbed me of my voice. I’ve bar...

Tonight, I fell down the internet rabbit-hole. It all started when I was casually hanging out in my room with my cat, listening to music. I decided to listen to one of my favorite compilations...
If I disappear for a while, it’s because of this space. Rescue is moving again. But it’s cool — when we got our space on Newbury Street, we knew it was temporary which is why...
I don’t usually get excited about movies and there are very few films I actually go see on opening night (mostly Harry Potter). But, for some reason, I got excited about Black Swan. I...
Um, what’s up with my friends being, as they say in Boston, “wicked fuckin awesome”? Case in point: my bestie Cara gave me this Alexander McQueen bracelet for my birthday! Gr...
I don’t usually write about labels or designers on here and it’s not for any real reason except that I see no need to repeat content I’ve already read somewhere else. But rec...
So I went back to New York and had my . . . 29th!!! . . . birthday party at Wierd. Micki and I decided to do some tag-team DJing but I think that in my drunken haze, I forced him to DJ for mos...
Excuse this shitty drunken iPhone picture, but fuck–it’s Grinderman! Amy and I have a tradition of getting wasted and going nuts whenever Nick Cave is town (click here to see me wi...
My costume! I was some sort of witchy skeleton woman, inspired partially by Fever Ray. I couldn’t find an outfit that would make me an accurate representation of the photos I was referen...
I am usually a very neat person. I wasn’t always, but after living in such small apartments for so long, I realized that without neatness and organization, I could never find a fucking t...
I went to NYC to DJ Tamaryn’s show at Coco66, which unfortunately got shut down only a few songs into her set. It was a major bummer because the show was kind of the best time ever. Ligh...
I change perfume often but only and always when I passionately love a scent so much that I must have it. I never throw away perfume bottles, I have a drawer full of bottles with barely a spray...
So, some awesome dudes I am friends with put out a new book with their long-time collaborator. These three musketeers have put out three completely fucking sick books over the years: No Seats ...
I have no real excuse for my on and off internet absence lately. The main thing is that I spend almost every day at the store dealing with people, music, fluorescent lights and the computer. W...
FUCK YESSSS….these Jeffrey Campbell shoes are finally here! I pre-ordered them from Solestruck forever ago and I was getting worried. But now they are here! Fall can begin! I will be a h...
Although it TOTALLY breaks my heart to do it, I think I have to sell these Topshop boot...
I’ve been to San Francisco three times and I’ve never seen the Golden Gate Bridge nor had a warm/sunny day (besides my last day this time, when we were walking to the BART wthrough...

Back from California! Missing it already. So many awesome things to describe in detail, but I’ve just finished unpacking and am about to start a marathon work-week so I need to sleep. In...
Leaving for LA and SF in less than twelve hours and of course I am not packed. There are piles of black clothes everywhere, I haven’t even thought about what shoes to take yet and I just...
