Our very own (well, McKinney’s very own) cute-as-a-button Kendi Skeen from kendieveryday.com and owner of one of our fav shops, Bloom, stars in Brahmin’s summer 2012 catalogue with only two other young ladies. You. Go. Girl. And I think you deserve a round two with those Christian Louboutins. Check out the catalogue and shop the looks at our Galleria Dallas store.
Jane Aldridge of Sea of Shoes blog fame hinted that she spent a little time in front of famous fashion photographer Mario Sorrenti’s lenses back in November, but now we know why. Josyln from D Home rushed over this morning with the newest Barneys New York catalog, starring the lovely red head amongst several other style icons.
Today I interviewed Martha Stewart, who, you may have heard, was in town signing her books at Williams-Sonoma at NorthPark. Take a look at what the famous homemaker has to say about entertaining, weddings, and loving breakfast. Then go buy her six-pound book.
Due to a shortage of time, my interview was shared with an NBC Guy.
NBC Guy: Okay we’re good and uh, it’s just easier if you look at Bailey.
Martha Stewart: Yeah, okay.
NBC Guy: First, tell me about the book.
MS: Well I need a book. Can I have a book please?
Bailey Powell: I have a book.
MS: So I’m here today to sign books at William Sonoma, and it’s my new book called Martha’s Entertaining: A Year of Celebrations. It’s hefty- six plus pounds (laughs). It’s a book about my own personal style of entertaining and it’s our 75th book at the company, so it’s a big deal.
Look so perfect, that is. If you didn’t already know, Dita von Teese was in town this week, bringing her Cointreau MargaDita cocktail and show, Burlesque: Strip Strip Hooray! to Dallas. After having photos taken with her (and sharing it with the world), everyone keeps asking, “Is she followed around by some sort of invisible PhotoShop machine?” I don’t know the answer, but intern Molly Boland got a couple tips from Dita that might shed some light on the subject (and her flawless beauty). Jump for details.

Before being shot for fashion columns, Nora Zehetner’s pretty face was seen in the school hallways of an elementary school in Richardson and a high school in McKinney. Love her style.
We’ll got those sought-after answers. Plus, stay tuned. We took a peek in her purse, and we’re letting you look, too. Coming soon to a computer near you.
I love this “quirky” look Mischa Barton’s sporting today on Who What Wear’s blog. I scrolled slowly down the outfit. Bugs, love ‘em. Pleated skirt, so in style. And then BOOM. Those gorgeous Charlotte Olympia pumps. Just shot a similar pair myself at Forty Five Ten. The pretty girls above are hanging out at the boutique, just waiting for a loving home.

Tony Lama, headquartered in Fort Worth, is responsible for the new boots seen on the feet of Lady Gaga in honor of her song, “Born This Way.” According to Gagafashionland.com, the boots took a whopping 500 hours to hand-create. Look closely and you’ll see images of unicorns, wings, rainbows, and the words “Born This Way.” The second (right) were also created for the megastar.
The Feast’s Lisa Petty has the scoop on the famous brunette and her stop in D Town.
According to a PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) press release, a protest will accompany Kim K’s spokesmodel appearance for FusionBeauty at Nordstrom Galleria tomorrow. From the email:
Holding signs that read, “Fur Is Butt Ugly” and “Fur Is a Bad Asset,” PETA members will confront Kim Kardashian as she arrives for a promotional event at Nordstrom on Wednesday. Kardashian has been targeted by PETA for her obsession with wearing fur, exotic-animal skins, and leather.
I’m all for fighting for animal rights (I’ve even spent years as a vegetarian), but I’m not so in love with the poster’s slogans. Fighting animal cruelty by picking on a woman’s body image doesn’t seem like the right approach to me. In any case, though, isn’t fur a little dated? Even Chanel has switched to faux fur.
