Baxter Finley, Barber & Shop Los Angeles

baxter finely barber shop acl selectism 1 Baxter Finley, Barber & Shop Los Angeles

Our friends at ACL cover the opening of the newest barber shop to hit LA from another group of friends. “When I was in L.A. a few weeks ago I stopped by to see the gents from Baxer of California at their then unfinished barber shop on LaCienega. Well today the veil has been lifted, and the new spot dubbed Baxter Finley, Barber & Shop, looks even better than I had anticipated. It is opening officially tomorrow, if you want to stop in for L.A.’s newest (and possibly best?) wet shave.”

Thierry Mugler, 61, on why he quit fashion: “The reason I quit fashion was that I had had enough of spending my time always being on my knees, making other people look amazing and fabulous. I used fashion to express myself as much as I could. But at some point, it was not enough.” [NYT]

Accessories inspired by Timeless Jackie Kennedy Style

 Accessories inspired by Timeless Jackie Kennedy Style

Regardless of what you think of the casting choices of Katie Holmes as Jackie in The Kennedys miniseries on the History Channel, or Rachel Weisz as JFK's widow in the upcoming feature film about the days following John F. Kennedy's assassination, the lady herself remains a timeless style icon.  MyJewelryBox.com recently launched their new accessories homage to the lady, The Jaqueline Kennedy Collection of earrings, pendants, bracelets, brooches, and watches – all inspired by some of her most famous pieces. Eyecatchers including her glowing emerald green Monte Carlo earrings, the glam necklace gifted to her in 1962 by the First Lady of Mexico, and her treasured Rose Window brooch – a birthday gift from her sister Lee that was a momento of a carefree summer the two spent in 1959 in Europe, marveling in particular at the Gothic cathedrals in France. 

 Accessories inspired by Timeless Jackie Kennedy Style One cheeky addition to your Fourth of July ensemble would definitely be the American Flag watch she designed herself during the presidential campaign of her brother-in-law Robert Kennedy; it was used by the campaign staff as identification and as a show of patriotism.

Karen Elson Sings: Karen Elson’s The Ghost Who Walks

Something about models crossing all kinds of artistic territories tells us that maybe, just maybe, modelling is just a phase in someone’s life and, some of them feel the need to move on. Or so I think.

Karen Elson, besides being a gorgeous model is also a singer. Did you know? Her album, called The Ghost Who Walks should sound like this (you can watch the video right after the jump). Which is really not bad at all, considering she has a beautiful voice. You’ll be able to find her new album starting Mai 25 2010. I wonder if she’ll stay on the chanting course or not. Some have made it as far as First Ladies… (via)

An Advance Look at Tilda Swinton in V Magazine #65. You’re Welcome.

 An Advance Look at Tilda Swinton in V Magazine #65. Youre Welcome.

In the article by Anthony Kaufman, the bewitching Scottish art-house goddess proves, at 49, that age is just a number when it comes to being sexy…which she most certainly is in "I Am Love" – in one of the year's most erotically charged roles. As Emma Recchi, the refined wife of an Italian textile tycoon who realizes she's bound by golden handcuffs and living in a (well-appointed) prison of propriety, Swinton portrays a woman "never very far from a pair of Ferragamo shoes" who sports demure dresses by Raf Simons for Jil Sander. The actress's collaboration with director Luca Guadagnino was 11 years in the making, and explores what happens when true love comes to town "and how it can really explode a certain milieu. When real love breaks out, love is about honesty and real encounters with real things, it's anathema to that environment, and it really breaks things, and breaks the spell of denial."

"I Am Love" (Magnolia Pictures) will be out in June 2010. V Magazine Issue #65 will be on newsstands May 11, 2010.
