filth mart & the closet

My really good girlfriend Amanda told me about a vintage store named Filth Mart and couldn't wait to take me! It is a little hole in the wall with the best vintage I have seen yet!! Anything from Rolling Stone Tees, to Levi denim vests, and even handmade vintage sweatshirts by Darren Le Gallo!! I am definitely going to save up my paycheck for one of his sweatshirts ($250). I mean ya its really expensive, but you are wearing a piece of art, literally!! I tried to find his artwork online, but I couldn't find anything except this. The pieces he makes for Filth Mart are one of a kind and totally random. He makes it up as he goes with skulls, faces and quotes. Filth Mart is located on N. Fairfax Ave and their number is 323.848.8613. Check out their website here.
Along with checking out Filth Mart I came across a commercial for another buy-sell-trade company called The Closet. It just so happens it is only 15 min away from my house! I wasn't expecting much, but as soon as I walked in I already found things I would buy. Mind you I live in a town where True Religion Brand jeans and a sparkly top are the hottest thing around, so to my surprise there was more to this little resale boutique. Not only did I find $70 Frye mint condition boots (that I had to squeezzeeee my lil foot into) I found a silk leopard dress (totally not into leopard but for some reason this dress was perfect to me) I also picked up a pair of classic ray ban ish knockoffs. I am such a happy camper with all of my purchases!! The owner is named Johanna and she was the nicest girl ever! She even owns the one in Santa Barbara on State Street! Check her website out here.

Last, but not least I had to go back to CT Nails in West Hollywood on Santa Monica Blvd. Their number is 323.656.6189. They do amazing airbrush!!!! (Soixante Neuf hammered ring)

balenciaga vs sam edelman

Amazing!!!! but way out of budget for me :( I know that in a previous post I talked about these buttt it is official they are in my closet!! I can't wait to wear them with every fall outfit!!! Sam Edelman, I heart you and your "Zoe"!! I bought mine at LF on Robertson! And they were not expensive!! You will be seeing me in these in posts to come!

september issue & laserium

Don't worry I am not going to spoil the documentary for any of you, but this film is pure perfection. If you have not seen it you must go and see for yourself how utterly amazing Anna Wintour is. Her crisp attitude and passion for Vogue is indescribable. As the Editor and Chief of Vogue Magazine Anna is describe by others as the "Pope" and her siblings refer to her job as "amusing." Without a doubt the daughter of Charles Wintour, former Editor of the Evening Standard, is remarkable at her job. Wintour has been in the fashion world since 1970 working at Harpers & Queen, Harper's Bazaar, Creative Director of American Vogue, Editor-in-Chief at British Vogue and finally Editor-in-Chief in 1988 of American Vogue!! And on top of all that has raised over $10 million for AIDS charities since 1990. I went and saw the documentary at the ArcLight theater in L.A. and the director of the film, RJ Cutler, was there to introduce us to his work!! What an awesome surprise!! Anywho go out and see September Issue you won't be disappointed, and if you are ,then you truly are not the fashionista you say you are ;)

Before the documentary my parents really wanted me to see Laserium!! It is a full on light show, lasers and all, to music like Pink Floyd and the Beatles! Needless to say it was awesome!! Back in my parents day ( ;) ) they would go to these shows high out of their mind and watch the lights go nuts and now Laserium has brought back that amazing experience our parents had! The theater is on Hollywood and Vine and you can purchase tickets or just check out their website here!
