KEREN ANN HAS GREAT HAIR AND OTHER KEY LEARNINGS FROM LAST WEEK

so keren ann has the best hair i've seen in a long time. black, perfect layers around her face and lovely fringey bangs. i almost want to grow mine out to effect the same effect. i think it works a bit better for a fab french jazz-indie-folk singer than for miss meg tho. we had a lovely time at the show thanks to the SFJ and lots of too many lychee martinis afterward w/k-a and entourage at sabine. note to self: lychee martinis, although they taste like lychee slushies, DO have alcohol in them!

that was wed nite. thurs brought the debut launch of kevin aaylidez's new poetry/photo book called the cistern, which i attended with the always wise and festive amy h. saturday brought many an interesting activity, including a sample sale sighting of daryl hannah (for the record she is beauuuutiful inperson and was wearing brand new navy converse chucks) hung out with holly's new pup, the fillmore, hit the musee on 6th/b and of course jj's debut at arlenes which was super duper fab. wow! he is hitting it these days. ifyou have a chance to see him live go do it!

sunday brought my free havainas at malia mills (white, in case you are wondering) and a plum bikini that looks straight out of michele' pfeiffer;'s wardrobe from scarface. it's HOTTTTT.
a little later, mexican hot cocoa and desparate housewives. i am addicted its true! that show makes me so tense i cant stop watching!!
