Weekend Shopping Picks: Screaming Deals at Two Resale Events
We’ve already talked about the vintage clothing sale that I have a booth at this weekend (for those of you who don’t know, or haven’t already gleaned, I’m thrift-store obsessed. Yep, me and my man, Macklemore) and I’m here with more info on it, straight from the organizers. To recap: From 10 a.m. to 4…
The Ruby Room’s Fashion Faux Pas to Fashion Fabulous
The Ruby Room is an excellent organization, run by West Seattleite Nyla Bitterman, that has been giving away free formal dresses to girls in need for 10 years, making prom a possibility for many of them. In 2012 the organization provided dresses to over 500 teens, and sponsored their first scholarship to a low-income fashion…
Fall Makeup Tips from Suresh, Local Boy Gone Bigtime
We’re huge fans of makeup artist Suresh’s style: sleek, soft and modern. His GlossLUXE lipglosses are a mainstay in our makeup bag, and his newish line of lipsticks, flecked with crushed diamonds, rubies, amethysts and yellow garnets, are our newest obsession. We’re partial to the dazzling red Michael shade, sheer enough for everyday, but special enough…
Staying Power: Two Seattle Institutions Mark Big Milestones
While the last week or so saw its usual share of food news from relative newbies – Marination Ma Kai opening, Chino’s closing and the answer to the is-it-or-isn’t-it Fuji Bakery mystery – two grand-dames of the Seattle restaurant world were quietly kicking off new chapters in their very admirable histories. Palisade, Magnolia’s Marina-side seafood…

Fur: Fabulous or Faux Pas
Last week was Fashion Week at the Bellevue Collection, and as always, the shows were well attended, well produced and gave the area’s best-dressed glitterati a chance to bring out their bling, don their Louboutins and get a good look at fall trends through the lens of Vogue magazine and Bellevue Collection retailers. Sportswear-made-chic (a…
Seattle Bride’s Urban Unveiled – Blushing Brides and Serious Bling
Benaroya Hall will transform on 10.11.12 to a blushing boutique of wedded bliss.
Our sister magazine, Seattle Bride, is producing its first-ever Urban Unveiled on 10.11.12, having acquired the boutique wedding show from dynamic duo True Colors Events earlier this year. Typically, the words “wedding show” don’t exactly convey images of opulence, glamour and celebration, but we assure you that Urban Unveiled is not your typical wedding show….

Feast Portland’s Secret to Success: Outstanding, Collaborative Chef Dinners
At any food festival, there’s the big, daytime tasting event. Usually wineries and restaurants, serving up little sips and bites, very similar to our own Taste Washington. At Feast Portland, the Bon Appetit-sponsored festival in Portland last weekend, this tasting event was called the Oregon Bounty Grand Tasting. And it was a fun event: While…

Top Chef and Cheezburger? Bravo Hearts Seattle
November 7 will be quite the day for raising the Emerald City’s national profile; Bravo is debuting, not only the much buzzed about Top Chef Seattle, but also a new “doc-com” about Seattle-based entertainment site, I Can Has Cheezburger? Aptly dubbed LOLwork, the reality show enters the world of Ben Huh and his quirky staff…
Seahawks vs. Packers: Everybody Type About it in All Caps!
Wow. So for once while watching football, I wasn’t the only one in the room who had no clue what was going on. Seattle Seahawks’ 14-12 win over the Green Bay Packers has fueled what some predict will be a season-long debate (sure it will, at least until something else interesting happens). I have no…
