Part 2: Hairroin Salon<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="272" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_r38bTkK9MMg/TAAgtnJDY2I/AAAAAAAAA6I/-T8t9aZHHIw/s400/hairroin+salon+beforeafter1.jpg" width="400" /></div><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">So I totally planned for having a video of this whole process and after reviewing the footage, I've decided that... Pictures are a better representation. Especially considering there was something significantly wrong with the video sound quality and I sounded like I had a lisp. Hilarious!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">In anycase. Something I've always known about myself is that I am extremely impulsive about my hair. On the day that I feel that I need to change it, I absoutely MUST do it that day. It's one of those funny psychological reactions that happen when in life you feel like your stuck about something and you need to change, but you can't change? Guess what can? Your hair. It's true for me. How about for you all?</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"> That actually wasn't the case on this particular hair cut day. Let's cut to a March... Me at the simply stylist event. Remember this? <a href="http://thelauriebstylefiles.blogspot.com/2010/03/what-i-wore-simply-stylist.html">click here. </a> I was oh so fortunate enough to get a free (FREE!) haircut by the amazing Sully who was there with <a href="http://www.hairroinsalon.com/">Harrioin Salon</a>. She gave me the best cut I have ever had. And when those bangs started to grow out (before picture...) it was time to go get an amazing cut again! And Sully totally out did herself! </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I wanted bangs, I wanted a pop of neon color (inspired my my friend Bekah who died her hair hot pink for Purim... yes... Purim... the Jewish Halloween) and I wanted to be edgy. Ask and ye shall recieve! So what do you guys think of my new do?</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

Part 1 - All over dye<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_r38bTkK9MMg/S_xIFnsusrI/AAAAAAAAA54/810298meDD0/s1600/Hair+color.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="308" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_r38bTkK9MMg/S_xIFnsusrI/AAAAAAAAA54/810298meDD0/s400/Hair+color.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">Hello before and after. I typically dye my hair bright red every six months. It washes out super fast but I still keep doing it. Actually I've been dying my hair every six months since 1998. I guess that is what happens when you leave home for college and true independence takes it's reigns. Well I've never done blue or anything, but I've mastered dying my own hair from a $9.00 box. And that is something to be said for!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">What my color? It's the same color I've used for years. <a href="http://www.lorealparisusa.com/_us/_en/default.aspx#/?page=top%7Buserdata//d+d//%7Cdiagnostic%7Cmain:pdp//objectid+HCo7_11//%7Bpdp_tab:pdp_overview//objectid+HCo7_11//%7D%7Cmedia:_blank%7Cnav%7Coverlay:_blank%7D">L'oreal Feria Color #56 Brilliant Bordeaux </a></div><div style="text-align: center;">The funny thing is: I've been using this color since they first launched it with Milla Jovovich as the hair color model. (UPDATE: Actually it was number<a href="http://www.millaj.com/pics/lorealferiabox.jpg"> #67 that Milla Covered</a> and I used to wear! I think I lost my color way some years ago after they replaced Milla's face. Shame on them... I guess I know what I'm doing next with my hair...)</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Stay tuned! Part two is coming up! The Haircut!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: small;">Now what ever Felix did to make me look tall... Genius. Look at those looooong legs! This was a last minute outfit throw together that ended turning out to be one of my newest favorite fashion confections! It's the perfect mix of old and new, high and low and all Laurie B. So here is the rundown:</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: small;">Top to bottom:</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: small;">Feather earrings: Betsey Johnson 2008</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: small;">Mesh Necklace: Vintage Whiting&Davis </span></div><div style="text-align: center;">Gold elongated necklace strand: Intuition for Target</div><div style="text-align: center;">Black pleated bubble hem tank: Daisy Fuentes for Kohls (oh yeah, and I designed that baby back in 2006 and was instores Prefall 2006...if i remember correctly)</div><div style="text-align: center;">Yellow Lace Cardigan: Rodarte for Target <br />
Belt: Vintage NYC Goodwill 2002</div><div style="text-align: center;">Printed Skirt: Banana Republic 2009</div><div style="text-align: center;">Shoes: Betsey Johnson</div><div style="text-align: center;">Ikat clutch: A gift for my birthday in April from my awesome friend Rachel!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I believe this belt I am wearing was one of the first belts I bought when I first moved to NYC back in 2002. I was broke and on a vintage, goodwill kick aways finding the best pieces. What I look for? Longevitiy. I see further fashion vision with items and I keep them for years and years and years.</div><div style="text-align: center;">Love.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">It's that time again! Here's yet another adventure at the Melrose Trading Post. My favorite sunday destination. Each time I go I see something new, different, exciting, and inspiring. Sometimes I'm only in a furniture mood, sometimes a trinkets mood, it all depends. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I've been a flea market shopping since 2000. I love it. I love old things. I love history. I love to be inspired. And if I can share that energy with you, excite you, and inspire you? Then my day is fulfilled!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

Again.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Why? Because after cutting my video of her LA fashion show at her La Cienega Store Maison, I started to write down all the brilliant words coming out of this fashion designers lips. And let me tell you... these are words to remember. So I'd like to share them all with you:</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Here are my favorite quotes and musings from </b></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Catherine Malandrino:</b></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">"I was thinking about wrapping fabric in a different way that feels very effortless."<br />
<br />
"I think every one should own some dress in a crochet."<br />
<br />
"I want to go into an experimental nomadic lifestyle where a woman is free to travel the world and express her own personality through clothes and through their travels"<br />
<br />
"I love the vest that look like jewelry pieces. They become not just the clothes but they become an accessory."<br />
<br />
"It is the idea of making it effortless but beautiful at the same time."<br />
<br />
"I like the idea that the woman has to stay elegant, like a queen."<br />
<br />
"At this moment I am more inspired of Polynesian beauty like the beautiful and timeless femininity of the Polynesians girls. "</div><div style="text-align: center;"></div><div style="text-align: center;"></div><div style="text-align: center;"></div><div style="text-align: center;"></div><div style="text-align: center;">"Every woman needs to have chiffon dresses in her wardrobe."</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
"I love to give a timeless quality to clothes."</div><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">Oh Karl Lagerfeld. You are so brilliant. But please tell me. Why do you send a 70+ look collection down the runway. You are brilliant, mad, genius, but there are just SOO many ideas and themes that I am not sure where to lay my fashion loyalties. Is it to the soft disco throwback that reminds me so much of Vintage Angelica Houston? Or perhaps the suede, paisley and textured hippy chic. (I happily omitted the pictures...) Or even the bohemian rock goddess. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">Oh I do! I do! She not only is she beautiful and her collection is always beyond my expectations, Catherine possibly has the most beautiful, whimsical, romantic and mesmerizing voice I have ever heard. Everything she says with her french accent is not only brilliant but she oozes femininity. Which is only appropriate as her love affair with style (as she puts it), gives her the desire design clothing for women. Feminine, sensual, powerful, beautiful. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I was lucky enough for the second year in a row to get a front row seat to watch a Catherine Malandrino runway show, with host Catherine herself here in Los Angeles. A finale to the<a href="http://www.lcdqla.com/"> La Cienega Design Quarter</a> event that took place this past weekend. Here's a bit of a photo adventure of the day!<br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">So Last thursday the LA fashion scene gathered together to celebrate the launch of <a href="http://www.thefashionfrontline.blogspot.com/">the Fashion Frontline</a>. Created by the fabulous Bren of <a href="http://somuchpretty.com/">Somuchpretty.com</a> she not only is the backbone to this competition but also threw an amazing party at Seven Grand to celebrate. And what good is a party without a stuffed gift bag! The giftbag featured products from Cargo Cosmetics, Ardell, China Glaze, Booty Parlor, Chinese Laundry, ONE Water, Carolina Pad, Revitalash, Burda, Surgicare, Julie Hewett, Lather, and more! I think my favorite items are the China Glaze Light as Air lavender nail polish which is officially my new favorite color. And the Booty Parlor Kissaholic lip gloss. Aphrodisiac infused... and I can say first hand... yeah that worked.... </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
I will be stoked to see my first pictures go up and I'm even more excited to see what everyone else wears to "work". Which really? Work could be a loose term here. My work = amazing fun time. So I don't really consider my work, "work". <br />
<div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Better stay tuned for the competition. You are going to vote for me right? Okay. Great. Just checking.</div><br />

What do they mean anyway right? 30 is just a number.... a seemingly big number... but just a number. Frankly I feel and look (thanks to years of protective moisturizing), forever 21... especially as the bartender at the Village Idiot carded me last night. (sweet.) </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">In the last ten years of my life as my life has evolved, so has my creative love for fashion. Having lived in Bloomington, Indiana for the early years of my 20s, I was influenced by vintage and DIY apparel. Living in NYC taught me to take my fashion to the next level. Sophistication, class, perfection, and 6 in heels as a life constant. And in my final year of my 20s I have planted my roots in Los Angeles and discovered that my love for vintage and my New York sophisticated perfection have actually merged into the chic, ever stylish and always put together lady you know as.... Laurie B Style. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">My soul always told me big things are ahead... and as 30 is the new 20 starting today.... I'd say the journey has just begun. <br />
<br />
Onwards and always upwards! Cheers to another 10, nay 70 years of my beautiful, inspiring and fashionable life. </div>Laurie B Stylehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09038081342941095470noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-646340912939720428.post-15017089886948196182010-04-19T19:33:00.000-07:002010-05-10T18:59:11.142-07:00The Fashion Frontline - Let the competition begin!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_r38bTkK9MMg/S80P4afjDfI/AAAAAAAAAwg/kFcR3Ah3Bzw/s1600/work+look+outtake.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="267" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_r38bTkK9MMg/S80P4afjDfI/AAAAAAAAAwg/kFcR3Ah3Bzw/s400/work+look+outtake.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">Photographer: <a href="http://www.blogger.com/%20http://katyabramson.blogspot.com/">Katy Abramson</a>♥</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

<br />
<br />
Today is a new day. No more will I be writing for Examiner.com. Being the LA Women's Style Examiner, I have met the most incredible people, covered some serious fashion events, and grew to be the person that I am today. As I embark on a new adventure, I leave Examiner behind with a fond memories and fabulous fashion. What I take with me is my love for giving you a more indepth analysis to fashion, a different way of thinking, my rightful title as your Editor in Chic. <br />
<br />
Today is a new day. From now one the Laurie B Style Files will be your place for all all my fashion adventures. And for now this is only the tip of the stylish iceberg. You'll just have to stay tuned to see what happens next.<br />
<br />
<br />
Fashionably yours,<br />

Since I moved back to Los Angeles, LA Fashion week has consistently been a whirlwind experience. With back to back events for more than just a “week”. Last season it was joked that LA fashion week was actually “La fashion Month”. And appropriately so, as literally I had events 6-7 nights out of the week from October 8th until November 1st. This season was much smaller. Smaller productions are stepping up to the plate to fill the gap of the once single organized fashion week. And we end up with small pockets of events. Each event with potential, redeeming qualities and a vision of the LA fashion week future. But the biggest question that runs through my head is....Why are these people not banding together to give LA one big fashion week? A possibly unanswerable question. Last season I wrote an article addressing this and that was not well received. But I think months later I still stick to my theory about this City needing one strong New Yorker to give LA the boot camp like treatment the New York fashion industry has and whip it into shape. The minds behind LA Fashion Week, BoxEight, Beverly Hills Fashion week (once called DowntownLA fashion week) and the new: Concept need to get together and band forces. You’d think with us all wanting a strong, proud LA fashion week, that this would be an easy task. But sadly it is not. With Strong opinions, creative differences and separate business visions. It could be an impossible task. Hence the “one tough New Yorker” theory that I have come up with. Could I be that person? One day. I’m still sifting through the issues and information to figure out how to analyze what we can do to fix this. <br />
<br />
I’m brewing up an idea.... An article based idea. One article a week on Examiner.com devoted to interviewing these production companies. Finding out everything from their vision, their wants, their needs and also why we can work together... or can we? That’s what I want to find out. <br />
<br />
It’s just an idea. It’s brewing.... </div>Laurie B Stylehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09038081342941095470noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-646340912939720428.post-47390334391592116122010-03-21T18:09:00.000-07:002010-03-21T18:10:58.667-07:00What I Wore - Directive's West First.LA Runway and Sonnet's Gig<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_r38bTkK9MMg/S6a-cBn_7QI/AAAAAAAAApQ/0jyXmY-Vmps/s1600-h/directives+west.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_r38bTkK9MMg/S6a-cBn_7QI/AAAAAAAAApQ/0jyXmY-Vmps/s400/directives+west.jpg" width="300" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">This shot was taken early at Sonnet's as we prepped for her gig that evening.<br />

Worked out great. But didn't really photo so well.. hmmm.. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
