So what do you think this one is all about…I will leave it up to you! One hint–the name says it all and he has muscles, a tight tee shirt and a earring???? Who ever came up with this character may have had more in their mind than kitchen floors!

The DVD is coming. Pre- order now from Amazon.com so the day it comes out you will be hugging the postman for your piece of Tom. Most of you have seen this film this past December. I have to see it again. It has so much style and so much heart, that a second viewing is in order. The dancing scene between Colin Firth and Juliana Moore is genius. The song they dance to BTW is called “Green Onions” by Booker T. and The MG’s. I had to download it from iTunes after seeing the film. Escape into another part of Tom’s world.
You heard of the Sea of Love? Well check out the Sea of Havianas! During my last trip to Miami, I discovered a different sea at TOOTSIES (305-674-0068). This salon and boutique has the largest selection of these wonderful rubber sandals in Miami. Skulls, flags, hearts, stripes, dots…you name it. The novelty of seeing all the unique styles in baskets all over the store, made me become an instant collector. I walked out with 3 pairs later and a reunion with a old friend (the owner). What a pleasant afternoon. Summertime, I’m ready!!!

This black tomb is full of color, ideas and wonderful fantasy images. It is years of advertising campaigns, product product and more product, and also a lesson in Italian history. It comes in a black case that is elegant and mocks Prada’s signature leather embossed pattern. Sorry the case is not leather!! It is still a wonderful book that will look impressive on any coffee table in any decor. This is a great way to hang on to the world of luxury and also float back to the streamlined 90’s.

While I was riding a bus down to the lower east side for brunch, my iPpod was playing this certain song from 1971. I thought to myself…hey I would love to here the cast of GLEE sing this song…And it goes something like this:
DAY BY DAY- Godspell soundtrack
BAD GIRLS- Donna Summer
TIME (Clock of the Heart)-Culture Club
MAGIC MAN-Heart (Lea Michelle would kick a$$ on this song)
NOTHING COMPARES 2 U- Sinead O’ Connor
Hey readers any suggestions for glee… comment !!

I recently went to her book signing at Barnes and Noble for “Chelsea Chelsea Bang Bang”! Her fans were all out for this event. Who knew she had such a following? She refers to herself as “mean sober”. Her sharp tongue and quick wit can be seen on her show called “Chelsea Lately”. Make sure she has a cocktail at all times. I would not want to bump into her at a coat check before she has her cockail. Chelsea sober sounds terrifying. See you at the bar Chelsea!

Many of my fans know I love buying colorful novelty stamps. I know it is bizarre. Remember I wrote about The Simpson stamps? Well it is time to get Artsy! Jackson Pollock, Willem de Kooning and Robert Motherwell are all here. Treat yourself to a sheet of these stamps and you will create a new visual language based on color and motion. You will instantly feel part of the international art scene from the 1940’s and 1950’s. Express yourself!!

Trust Me! Buy “Essence” by Narciso Rodriquez for somebody! Mother, Sister, Daughter, Aunt or Friend. This wonderful smelling perfume will make any women smile. I bought it last December for my sister for her birthday and when she tried it on, the scent took over. Her reaction was like she almost melted with joy! The bottle and presentation is stunning. Chic and Simple is the Narciso way.

NOW
One Life Stand: Hot Chip (2010)
I have been following this band from the U.K. for a few years now. They have remixed many of my favorite bands as well. Every group has their “breakout” masterpiece. One Life Stand will get every part of your body moving. Hot Chip will get you to move in a more electronic version of the Talking Heads well known sound. I will be seeing this band this summer outside in Central Park. Can’t wait to move my groove. Caution: PLAY LOUD
THEN
TALKING HEADS: Remain in Light ( 1980 )
When this album came out I didn’t know how to move to this new sound. All I knew was it made me groove in a new way. A little funk, tribal, electronic, and the new shaky voice of David Bryne. This CD is worth revisiting. It was new kind of dance music. It ain’t no disco…just play it loud and you will get it! All the way through your bones.
