Parasols K Is…

19.Mar.2009
Guy de Jean Bonheur Parasol

Wanting.

Allison Agsten, LACMA’s communications director and blogger, shared the best boutique for parasols. NYC’s Rain or Shine swears they carry the finest umbrellas, and I believe it. Check this French parasol: I love its clean curves, and the blush it’ll shade your skin with. And unlike most women, this parasol’s both form and function — the SPF 50+ parasol works as a regular umbrella, too…

Pierre Vaux Bamboo Handle Parasol

Using.

A sheer beige parasol filters the sun and UV rays, a bamboo handle is a chic, Sunday morning-friendly alternative to mace…

Chantal Thomass Tassels & Lace Parasol

Hating.

Fussy, and without function — this parasol doesn’t necessarily block the sun’s rays…



Sunnies K Is…

28.Jul.2008
Coco de Mer thong

Wanting.

I love Porsche. I had a tour of their store in Two Rodeo, and discovered Porsche actually designs everything with its name stamped on it. Like all their ish, there’s a real elegance in the economy of these sunnies’ design…

FitFlop Thongs

Hating.

You get what you pay for, but what’s costing you more than rent for these sunnies is less gold plate and ebony wood, and more marketing. Though Tom Ford is beautiful, and I do feel honored to contribute to his Botox fund…

NARS makeup

Wearing.

Built by the man who created Jackie O’s original glammy glasses. I found these at Hotel de Ville, which also carries Aristotle Onassis’s frames. I’m buying those next, and the two glasses can sit on my dresser and fight over money…

Excuse Me, Do You Speak Spanish?

30.Nov.2007

Chloe “Myrte” sunglasses $290, Net-a-Porter.com
Though I practically live there already since I’m in Los Angeles, The Boy, my boy, is taking us to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico this weekend.

It should be exotic to be around so many people speaking English.

“The Boy’s taking you to Mexico?” my brother asked, on instant message. “Who’s paying?”

“Well, The Boy is, but it’s not like he’s a real sugar daddy,” I typed back. “I think he wants to sell me there.”

I’m trying to lay my Splenda daddy during our lay over, but he’s politely declined.

Details on all the carb-free tacos I eat and sunshine I block off with SPF 45 to follow.

XXXO,
K

D&G Dolce & Gabbana Gloves, Fur-Trimmed

19.Nov.2007

D&G Dolce & Gabbana GlovesThese D&G Dolce & Gabbana gloves are perfect for the next time a man disrespects you: a fast whack on his face and he’ll turn a cherry red that’ll complement the boss black leather and lapin (that’s French for “expensive rabbit fur”).

Asking you to be his wife, and not his mistress.

How dare he.

Proposing a long-term lease with an allowance, instead of pay for performance…

What does he think? That you’re bad in math and bed?

Missoni Lattice Belt

14.Nov.2007

Missoni Lattice BeltYou could play safe, loop your life around a comfortable circle: settle for a mate, for a nine-to-five, for what everyone supposes everyone else wants.

Or you could play passionately, build a life of real right angles: menage with men and women who inspire you, climb ambitious heights on a self-styled ladder, make your own world of unique beauty.

So pick: mom jeans and getting belted into boring, or this Missoni lattice belt barely caging your creativity.

One’s risque and risky.

One’s plain scary.

Oscar de la Renta Belt

05.Nov.2007

Oscar de la Renta BeltLife is less drudging through democracy and more aspiring to aristocracy. Life is pulling yourself above the mess of the masses. Life is besting the rest in your own way: maybe you’re a baroness of business, a princess of pop, maybe–

You just give great brain.

So sash yourself with this gold, jeweled Oscar de la Renta belt. Sun-king satin lifts your everywoman, (house)wife beater into a queenly state, dainty chains lock down your confidence, and topaz tiles would shine nice on you naked, as you play courtesan in your couture.

Really.

Your boy’ll be inspired to worship the queen that king’ed him

Louis Vuitton Bum Bag

25.Oct.2007

Louis Vuitton bum bag $710, eLUXURY
Louis Vuitton Bum BagThere’s something boss about a Louis Vuitton bum bag.

The Louis logo brags European chic to balance the bum bag’s timeless tourist vibe, to equal classic style.

Like getting mugged in New York’s Times Square, or, similarly–

Getting fucked up the ass.



Porsche Sunglasses, Carrera Style

28.Sep.2007

Porsche Sunglasses

Most people’s “when I make it” includes a car they’ll accessorize with leather interiors that clean nice after pricey blow jobs, but I’d rather own Porsche sunglasses–Carrera-style–and a driver, than a Carrera.

Till Alfred’s chauffeuring me to strip clubs, I’ll be in fifth gear in five-inch heels and these Porsche sunglasses, sipping a hellish hot soy latte, double-checking appointments on a smart phone smarter than I, I–

Figure I can blame an accident on being a Asian Cracker Jap.

Fendi Belt in Python

30.Aug.2007

Fendi BeltBecause as much as I like rubbing my vintage snakeskin bags against my cheek and telling whichever Los Angeleno asks that the bag is real and my fav pet, living in a city full of flip-flops and calloused soles is rubbing wrong my soul, and the charm of people wondering if I’m a foreign exchange student is wearing thin like my impromptu fake French, and–

eLUXURY doesn’t ship this python Fendi belt to California.

Dude.

I’m like, totally, taking L.A. out of my Sidekick for reals now.
