Having great friends in a city like Los Angeles lead to amazing nights like Wednesday. My dear friend, Hellin Kay, stylist to the stars/fashion editor/photographer extraordinaire, was kind enough to ask me to be her “Plus 1” to Gen Art‘s party for Vena Cava at the famed Chateau Marmont in West Hollywood. As we were waiting for my all-time fave St. Vincent to perform a solo set (I die a thousand times over), I had the pleasure of meeting musician Darian Zahedi, who was double denimed up in a Levi’s jacket and Kill City jeans. More on my star-studded night out with Hellin can be found here.
A little video I shot of St. Vincent covering The Beatles’ Dig A Pony (swoon).
I recently caught up with my long-time friend, Photographer Noah Abrams, at a pool party/impromptu, unofficial Bexley High School reunion at the SLS Hotel in Beverly Hills. Noah skipped a bathing suit, opting for the best suit around: denim _ Nudie jeans and a Levi’s jacket. I’m never shocked to see The Black Keys’ go-to photog in a Canadian Tux … pretty sure that’s their official uniform.
And if Noah sounds familiar, it may be because he’s making tabloid headlines as Jennie Garth’s new man!
Last night at Effen Vodka’s Art of Design party in Downtown LA, I ran into William Chang of Sum of Yum. William was in a denim top and jeans by Zara and accessories by LUV AJ. Love.
Kanye West was seen in his favorite ensemble – denim on denim – with his favorite accessory – Kim Kardashian – leaving The Book of Mormon in NYC on July 29.
I had the pleasure of meeting Edward Diaz while grabbing my morning coffee at Starbucks in the Melrose District. Diaz, who works at the neighboring V/Nus, is seen here in a summery Canadian Tuxedo consisting of a Stapleford chambray shirt and white 511s by Levi’s.
Kim Jones unveiled some interesting denim looks for Louis Vuitton S/S 2013 at Paris Fashion week. This is our fave. Check out The Denim Guy for more double denim looks from LV.
Even without his robe, Kevin Lee Light looks angelic. I ran into long-time pal and subject of another one of my blogs I Saw Jesus in LA at the Sunset Strip Market in West Hollywood last Thursday night. While Jesus was out and about in his plain clothes, I stuck to my denim on denim uniform: James Jeans Twiggy denim leggings in coral I picked up at Rowe in Columbus, Ohio and my Gap jean jacket I still have from high school.
Good news for fans of both my sites: Kevin informed me he just got a denim Jesus robe. Can’t wait to see that look.
Diane Kruger was seen earlier this week at the Chanel Haute-Couture Show as part of Paris Fashion Week in a denim dress from the Spring Resort 2013 line. Gorg!
Last night, watching one of the most beautiful sunsets I’ve ever witnessed at Terranea Resort, I ran into this lovely lady in vintage Levi’s cut off shorts an American Apparel denim shirt. Even on vacation, I can’t escape the double denim! Love it.
I’m always thrilled to see my friends do their thing in LA and even more excited when it involves a Canadian Tuxedo! Here’s Jessica Garvey, actress and brains behind Hostess Handbook (and sometimes CanadianTux.com photog) in a punk-inspired Canadian Tuxedo for Penny Chic. Denim vest by Kmart (who knew?) and pink jeans from TJ Maxx, which are making me want to be a “Maxxinista.”
That's one dope ass Canadian Tuxedo
