Take a quick tour through eclectic artist, Rosson Crow’s LA studio. Her space and mood board is on point but don’t even get me started on her shih tzu, Willie Nelson.

As if all of this newly accumulated social destruction wasn’t enough for you, you can now wet your appetite with this stomach turning Netflix documentary on uber rich, pedo-centric, Jeffery Epstein. I’m not going to ruin it for you but you can see the motley crew of the underaged connoisseurs of our generation such as good old Harvey Weinstein and Kevin Spacey. Shocker that all of the usual suspects would rub their dirty, self-entitled elbows with one another in the comfort of their private jets.

The news of this happening in West Hollywood, a city that I love, appreciate, forged life-long relationships in is nearly enough to bring me to tears. I understand and am completely empathetic to those whom are outraged with the social matters at hand but acting in such a manner brings you down to the same level of evil that you’re rebelling against. I love you Los Angeles but the character that you showed is extremely counter-productive and truly disappointing.

It’s always fascinating when you get an invitation to read the thoughts and ideas of designers who steer fashion and culture. Gucci’s Creative Director, Alessandro Michele, has put entries from his personal journal online for you to get a glimpse of the art, books, movies and everyday relationships that spark his creativity.

At a time when people still need to distance themselves from others for safety, we felt we should make a couple of products that do the talking for you. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to the Covid-19 LA County Response Fund. If you don’t wish to make a purchase, we still encourage you to click the link and make a small donation. Honestly, every dollar helps at a time like this.

Retailers across Los Angeles are gearing up for their re-opening, which we think is a bit premature, but we do understand that foot traffic and in-person commerce is the driving force in the infrastructure for a lot of these establishments. It’s hard to deny that no matter how far technology has advanced, it can never duplicate the physicality and experience of touching and trying on garments, especially when it comes to specialty items and luxury goods. But, if you’re still wary and feel that Whole Foods and Target is as deep into society you’re willing journey for the time being, yet are ready to shed your newly grown self-isolation body hair and buy some new threads to show off, we found this list of amazing online-sales that are going on right now.

Have you every thought to yourself, “man, I really wish I could own a Grimes soul to go along with the artwork on my wall”? If so, you’re in luck because now you can acquire just that. Grimes will be setting free a portion of her soul to the highest bidder at her first gallery show at Maccarone. Yes, the same Los Angeles based gallery that debuted Jim Carrey’s artwork.
