No Reason to Hide

That is the name of the Philosophy serum that the stunning host introduced at a cosmetics trend show I recently attended. She explained that it is formulated to work wonders with overall smoothing, preventing skin impurities, correcting redness and reducing darks spots. And does this stud look familiar? I featured Cam and his dating tips yesterday. He was enlisted on …

Time to Meet Another Man

Last week, a girl stopped me and said, “Hey, you’re the one who has that blog with the awesome guys.” No pressure on me to keep finding those “awesome” ones! Well, I think you’ll enjoy today’s pick. Cam works in sales, is passionate about surfing, models on the side, and is a huge hit on the runway. But what means …

Bringing South Korea to You

Yesterday, for Travel Thursday, I featured my friend Min and her favorite shopping spots in Seoul. Today is all about her style sense. She’s like a walking Korean art exhibit with an infusion of fun patterns, colors and textures inspired by her heritage. For this shoot, we chose a garden with a Korean vibe. As Min explains, South Korea looks …

Traveling in Style

I have a dear friend, Min, from South Korea. She’s adorable, resembling a porcelain doll. Her sense of style is a work of art. She’s vivacious, and has an inspiring story. I’ll share that with you tomorrow as well as her personal Korean-influenced fashion. But today, for Travel Thursday, I want to focus on some of her favorite style landmarks …

Who Wants to Dance with Macklemore?

The real question is, Who wouldn’t? I got to meet up with and get tips from one of Macklemore’s dancers. Jennie Pegouski recently came off his tour. She’s charismatic, articulate and – of course – an A+ dancer! Jennie described the tour as a whirlwind of travel and dancing—and she loved every minute. The moment she came home from one show, …

After Vowing He’d Never Marry Again…

…George Clooney made a different kind of vow. This Oscar winner has long been considered Hollywood’s most-eligible bachelor, but that eligibility just got eliminated. On Saturday, September 27, he and Amal Alamuddin, a human-rights lawyer, held what was supposed to be a private wedding celebration in Venice, Italy. Oh, but when you’re George Clooney nothing is ever really private:) Here’s what the …

Meet a Basketball Star…

…from University of Chicago and a complete campus hunk! If you haven’t seen my latest sports skit, do yourself a favor and catch John’s cameo. You just know that any guy willing to hoist me on his shoulders for the sake of a fun project is easygoing. But John’s also insightful. I receive quite a few emails from college girls. …

Scottish-Infused Style

This fall, fashion houses are receiving inspiration from Scotland. Last weekend, I attended the Nordstrom Fall Trend Show where guests were greeted with an array of tartan looks. Nordstrom is just too clever. My local store places Milly’s most mesmerizing pieces on the path to Habitant, the new gathering spot for drinks and small plates. When a girl is in …

Great Scot

Considering my Scottish heritage, I watched with a vested interest as the bid for independence played out last Thursday. The United Kingdom survived losing Scotland by an unexpected 54%-45% margin after polls predicted the vote too close to call. A record 86% of Scots weighed in, and emotions ran deep on both sides. They still do. The yearning for national …

What Happens When…

…basketball, dance, and rabble-rousers come together? This video skit! We had a blast coming up with the concept. If you haven’t seen Chris’ tips for acing a first date, here they are. If you are wondering about the dunking hottie? Well, you’re going to be seeing more of John next Meeting Men Monday!!

Serious Shine

Last Saturday, when my alarm went off at 7 am, I immediately hit snooze. It was the weekend. But once I realized that it was also the Nordstrom Fall Trend Show, I bolted out of bed. Some people strive to be fashionably late to events, but – trust me ladies – when it comes to a show with the hottest …

Slam Dunk Dating Tips

I keep receiving requests to interview more single men on my site about their dating preferences. So when my friend called saying she knew a guy who was the definition of fun, a total gentlemen, and the perfect guest for KCC.LA, I was game. And when I say game, I mean it! Chris is an avid basketball fan, so before …

The Kooples

As a girl who has blogging theme days…one being Meeting Men Monday and another Fashion Friday….it’s no surprise that I fell in love with The Kooples. The three French brothers behind this label add a whole lot of cool to their lust-worthy designs, which are flattering with a vintage feel borrowed from fashion and music icons. Early on, Alexandre, Laurent, …

Where are the Washingtonians?

The fair-loving ones are in Puyallup. That is, through September 21st, when they’re in for an assortment of rides, concerts, shows, animals, and one of my favorites—sweet treats. Trust me friends, there are no calories when it comes to fair food:) At least that’s what I kept telling myself when the cotton-candy maker handed over his “smallest” size which was …

Spontaneous Stargazing

Solar flares creating a rare display of Aurora Borealis flooding the midnight sky…at least that’s what my friend and I expected to find when we trekked to Snoqualmie Pass Friday night. The Seattle media had been hyping the moment with fawn-worthy pictures like the one below. I would like to tell you that we were entranced by a show of …
