"Lost Souls Of The Pacific" Spring 2013
My older sister and I were not particularly close when we were young, or so I thought. After all, she was impeccably groomed and hysterically neat (my description). She slept in a perfectly made bed; head full of rollers, hands detailed in never chipped red lacquer laid carefully atop the bodice of her crisp white nightgown.

Something I’ve been pontificating lately is the sudden usage of the word “lazy,” in reference to lingerie. Recently, Bravo star-turned-mogul Bethenny Frankel released her line of shapewear via Dreamwear known as Skinnygirl Solutions. At the press preview, she proclaimed that it was “lazy” lingerie. Why?

Without a plan and with the intention of “just looking,” I went to the Rose Bowl flea market in Pasadena. This is not a good idea. The Rose Bowl flea market is bigger than any flea market you have ever been to, multiplied by tens and a lot of it is redundant. If you get lost, there is no way someone can find you using descriptions like, … Read More
