The Look For Less: Violette's Colorful Safety Pins
When I first learned about the existence of colorful safety pins, I jumped for joy so high that had I been holding a safety pin in my hand, I would have poked my eye out. No, but seriously, besides it being pretty, it's also really useful. What I didn't jump for joy over is the price ($14 for 36 pins).
Simply Fab: Violette's Pin-Up's Safety Pins
Here's yet another time when I say to myself: Why didn't I think of that? Regular silver or gold safety pins are useful, but what about those times when you're not wearing silver or gold? Violette's Pin-Up's Safety Pins ($14 for 36 pins) have answered my question.
Fab Finding Follow-Up: '70s Kozy
I recently heard about a new bar in SF that's right up my '70s-loving alley: Kozy Kar Bar. Apparently, there are waterbeds, hard drinks, shag carpet, and Playboy pinups all around. Sounds like a cheesy good time, no?

Look of the Day: 60s Flower Child Pinup
I give Enoel much props for having the courage to post this 60s flower child pinup look! She looks absolutely darling in her one-piece vintage bathing suit, and the colors match perfectly with her honey skin. And the hair is so Farrah Fawcett from Charlie's Angels - one of my fave shows!

Who Wore the Retro Look Better at amfAR?
At last night's amfAR fund-raising event in Milan, stars showed up to help stir up cash for AIDS research. And while everyone was no doubt looking forward to a HIV-free future, two women looked to the past for their retro style. Dita Von Teese dazzled in her trademark '50s-style pinup glamour, whereas Linda Evangelista looked like a sophisticated '30s film star.
Bella Donna: Lana Turner
Her sex appeal may have garnered lots of attention, but Lana Turner, née Julia Jean Mildred Francis Turner, was more than just a pin-up girl with a femme fatale image. The well-coiffed actress, who was discovered sipping Coke at a cafe during her high school years, was often referred to as the "Sweater Girl" for her tight-fitting top in They Won't Forget, a film made early in her career.
While Lana was quite an accomplished actress and Academy Award winner, her personal life was tumultuous, to say the least.
