Video | Unrolling the On the Road Scroll
While this video offers no new thought about Jack Kerouac’s masterpiece, I really like the behind the scenes view offered by the Indianapolis Art Museum from their 2008 display of the manuscript. Laying out the pages is conservator Jim Canary, and his effort allows a rare look at the original document. Short and sweet, but nevertheless intriguing. After all, the book remains one of the Americana must reads.

Christopher Kane’s Cowlicks; Are Single-Tendril Curls Cool Again?
Cowlicks at Christopher Kane.
HAIR
• Hairstylist Paul Hanlon created exaggerated cowlicks seen at Christopher Kane by working with Tigi hair products. He said he wanted to make them high, but not “ridiculously high,” so they looked like they still had natural movement. [WWD]
• Marios Schwab’s show featured models with matte legs, rather than super-shiny, extra-moisturized ones. Nichola Joss of St. Tropez used the brand’s Everyday Perfect Legs bottle of bronzer and self-tanner backstage to achieve the look. [Beauty Counter/Style.com]
• Glamour insists that the single-tendril curl — the lone piece of curled hair that hangs down the side of your face when you’re wearing an updo — is back. Both Michelle Trachtenberg and Erika Christensen wore the look recently, which makes it suddenly cool, while bridesmaids and promgoers have been wearing it for years when it wasn’t.

Bar Refaeli Did a Photo Shoot With the Situation
Jersey Shore‘s “the Situation” posted photos on his Facebook wall from a photo shoot he did with Bar Refaeli for Interview magazine. His caption: “The Situation and Bar Rafaeli ( Leo Dicaprio’s gurl) Interview Magazine Spread.” It’s unclear which one is moving up, as they say, as a result of this fortuitous collaboration.

Rock the Same Watch as a Dashing Daredevil of Old with a Black Rolex Daytona DLC
As early as the 1930s, Rolex was producing its first chronographs, including the one worn by Sir Malcolm Campbell. The British daredevil set the world land speed record and entered history on Utah's famous Bonneville Salt Flats by exceeding 300 miles per hour (484 km/hr) in his famous "Blue Bird", the name he gave all the cars he raced in (inspired by the blue bird of happiness in the play The Blue Bird by Maurice Maeterlinck).
The Cosmograph Daytona is named for the grueling 24-hours-straight race in Florida. Requiring an artful mix of speed, patience, skill and cojones, it has long been considered one of the sport's most challenging events. Rolex designed the timepiece to be the ultimate timing tool for drivers in endurance races; accurate to 1/8 of a second, it is invaluable to the driver attempting to map course times accurately in order to determine how to drive to win.
This snazzy Black Rolex Daytona is from Time and Gems's DLC ("Diamond-Like Coating") line. Time and Gems, a top dealer of pre-owned Rolex Watches,
purchases pre-owned Rolexes in excellent condition, services & reconditions them, and then adds their proprietary, military-grade DLC for more durability.
