Yes! That’s right! I’m having plastic surgery. No not on my fabulous face. This time it’s just a revamp of the site. New themes, colors, drop down menu’s and even ad space (get out your wallets kiddies)!!
Posts will continue as usual but instead of the drab ole free theme you are staring at I am getting fancy and upgrading to a kinder, simpler, and more fun HeathyrWolfe.com. Guest Bloggers, photo galleries of everything you never wanted to see. Oh, and event coverage. I know you loooove red carpets and Hollywood weirdos.
Since it’s Pride Weekend in Los Angeles I thought I would give a very large SHOUT OUT to all my gay brother’s and sister’s out there.
Here’s an awesome video of two brave brazen gay’s sending a middle finger to an anti-gay preacher. This proves, actions really do speak louder than words.
And to the couple in this video, I owe you drinks at the Abbey! #HellYeah #EqualRights
Being so busy I forgot to do a review on a great fashion show I recently was part of here in the heart of Hollywood at Supperclub. It was smart, well put together and all about the elite.
I might have not gone had it not been for the fact, the talented and tres chic, Adolfo Sanchez, had an installation there. Adolfo has been taking the international fashion market by storm. With several seasons worth of shows at NYFW, national coverage and of course a recent trip to Turkey and Western Europe, Adolfo Sanchez has broadened his lines availability and now works on couture as well.
In fact that was the first thing I saw as I walked in the door.
After a meet, greet and air kisses Adolfo and I looked on while his well-kilted assistant adjusted the installation before opening.
And open it did. The Dripped Soiree was packed and everyone was there from stylist and business entrepreneur Eric Burns, of Prep Jerks, Inc., Marianne Geisha Of GGeisha Productions and the style crew that included my long-lost friend Malakai.
After an hour or so of mingling and drinking the crowd was restless. We were thankfully rescued by being ushered into the main floor. The 5 designers presenting; Madem Black, Staci Sherri, J Loren, Reckor and FROCK LA. Allof the designers were on their game but my personal fave’s that stood out were Madem Black, J. Loren and Frock.
With a full rubber and latex collection Madem Black kicked off with delicious diva’s in rubber, latex and PVC. Letting the imagination run wild she presented outfits with peek-a-boo latex lattices. One or two pieces even left nothing to the imaginations created from see through PVC and rubber. As it should when bringing the sexy. Between the spikes and latex everyone’s jaw appropriately dropped and Madem Black left us with a sexy taste in our mouth.
J. Loren brought the 60’s kitsch with gorgeous body-con dresses. With angular shoulders, J. Loren created sexy silhouettes bringing to mind Mad Men. Although some dresses were color blocked (and well) most were divided with loud prints and black lined figures, reflecting early 60’s sectional couture. A must have in my wardrobe. It was indeed, perfect skinny girl clothing.
Frock LA, was devastating.
They ended the show with a presentation that rivals most NYFW shows. Classic elegance, embodied in a ethnic chic. Tall, lengthy girls taking the time to not only show off their lengthy gowns but pose in the moment. Sadly I only got the first few models on the runway in video but they ended the show in absolute perfection.
Huge thanks to all involved, especially GGeisha Marianne and crew. I will be covering Frock LA when Dad’s Day is over.
Check out some of the random shots I got over the evening in the gallery below.
Soo Joo took the cover this month of Vogue Japan presenting something the Japanese have been celebrating for thousands of year. Gorgeous Asian women and martial arts.
Add an editorial by the talented Hyea Won Kang, with Soo Joo in black and white designs with classic martial art poses. The talent, the supermodel and a very cool take on exercise is a win win for Vogue Japan. (I must learn Japanese!)
Classic tradition meets modern monochrome. And as you all know who do read this I am all about modern monochrome.
Yesterday I posted a very gorgeous video with very gorgeous supermodel’s in Dior.
Today I give you the band that made it all deliciously possible. I figure we all deserve to wake up with some Monday morning inspiration while we chug down a pitcher of coffee.
Enjoy your Monday Music by easing into the day with ‘Synrise’ by Belgium band GOOSE.
Of here at HeathyrWolfe.com we love everything Angie. Whether it’s a press mess or another awesome story of St. Angie saving the world we approve. This time, the story is about Angie saving herself.
Unless you have been living under a rock you know Angelina Jolie just had a double mastectomy. It’s a scary must for those of us that have faced the possibility of cancer coming into our lives.
Well, St. Angie is not invincible and caught wind of just such a problem occurring in her life. With SIX beautiful children Angie had to face a scary decision not only as a person, but as a parent.
On May 14, Jolie announced that she had been diagnosed with a mutated BRCA1 gene predisposing her to cancer. She revealed she had undergone a preventive mastectomy on Feb. 16 and reconstructive surgery on April 27 in an op-ed in the New York Times.
She faced it, went through with the surgery, and came out on top. Angie not only conquered it but returned to the red carpet looking like a stunner (We knew she would).
Today in London at the ‘World War Z’ premiere with hot hubbie Brad Pitt, Angelina her first public appearance since the surgery. Saint Angie showed up looking like the Goddess we know and love. Wearing a long St. Laurent, black gown, she stunned, smiled and worked the red carpet for all it was worth. No really, I have never seen so much over posing in my life.
Regardless we are glad she is safe, sound and conquered what could have been cancer. Here’s a picture of Angie and Brad posing like silly people. Thanks to Getty for the ridiculous photo’s of the holy one’s.
I am very proud to say I am Swedish. My Grandmother came over from Goteborg, Sweden (pronounced yotee-boree if you can believe it) in the 1920’s and passed on her heritage and awesome cheekbones to my mother and I. So when you see a mad genius like Patrick Demarchelier do a shoot for Scandinavia SSAW Magazine with our favorite Swedish supermodel, Frida Gustavsson, and super sexy Dane, Josephine Skriver, I HAVE TO share.

Again if you aren’t aware of Models.com go check them out. They are a great site.
Because in America we don’t ‘really’ honor Memorial Day as day of the fallen (we should), I give you a movie trailer. It is about a soldier but that is where the similarity ends with the whole holiday thing.
Let’s segue way in the awesome-ness that is Wolverine.
I LOVE Hugh Jackman. Anyone who can sing, dance, act ponce-y and be buff bad ass with facial hair issues is a hell of an actor. He needs a walk of fame star, and if he has one, he needs another. Besides being a great actor he play’s Wolverine to the teeth and kick’s ass at it. Hugh Jackman is owning this movie. The story line is epic and as a lead actor he know’s what he is doing.
I am dying that they went Japanese with this and they have a hot girl samurai warrior played by Rila Fukushima.
Rila Fukushima is not only great with a sword, but is a 5’7 fashion model from Japan. She started by working with D&G in 2004 and she has been a non-stop campaign and runway girl since. Rila has worked with Ben Taylor and rock god, Lenny Kravitz, as a video girl making her talented and hot. I am glad to see her expanding her sexy, crazy skills. Score one for Japan!
Last and never least, Famke Janssen. I have seen her bottom out and have taken some paycheck movies so to see her back as Jean Grey is awesome! Something about tall Dutch hottie’s (see Yolanda RHOBH).
Famke Janssen is smart, can act and at 47 (yes 47 boys) is a hot 6 foot tall Dutch girl who can steal any man’s heart. I am eternally thankful for the director’s casting her in this as the one X-men comeback character.
Think I’ve talked this movie up enough? Want to know why? Watch….
Since it’s my birthday I fully reserve the right to not blog. BUT because I love you guys and could not do this without you I am going to leave you with some of my favorite fashion images. Enjoy and Happy Birthday to me!!
Yes for once this is all about ME! I was asked recently how someone can find me in the land of social media. Although I was tempted to answer, “Google me Bitch”, I decided not to be a snot and share my awesome social media sites.
Although this fills up constantly and I am having to play the delete game with a lot of filler profiles to make room for professionals and friends there is a chance you can hop on here and listen to me gripe. My personal stuff is posted here. Religious and political views. If you don’t want to know, don’t add it.
And if you need to get ahold of me there is an awesome contact form below.
Have a unique product, clothing or accessory line you want me to write-up? I am on it. Contact me below and we’ll work it out and get you some publicity. Emerging designers are my bread and buttah!
Thanks for the follow and may the fashion force be with you.
There are few things in this world that have my heart. One is the house of Dior. Classy, timeless and run by Raf Simons, it is purely chic. Delicious even.
The other is my old school, goth, new wave upbringing. Namely Depeche Mode who has a soundtrack to everything in my life. Their music was timeless and full of top 40 songs I have danced to since the 80s.
What do you get when you mix awesome English band Depeche Mode with Dior?
This beautifully done campaign video. Originally released in a short version the final, long version will steal your heart. I know it did mine.
Enjoy this visual eye candy.
Secret Garden – Versailles’
A film by Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin, starring Daria Strokus, Melissa Stasiuk and Xiao Wen Ju in La Galeries Des Glaces – Château de Versailles.
Music by Depeche Mode: ‘Enjoy the Silence’
I love that music and fashion are so simpatico. The industry after a couple hundred years, has finally wised up to the mad musicians out there and is milking it like they should.
Consider this as one of those awesome music and fashion moments.
Freshly blasted from my fabulous in box is an exciting live stream event from Brooklyn, N-Y-C and Karmaloop. Karmaloop is doing their 4th installment of their ‘Freakathon’ live streams, this time with the awesome Riff Raff. They will be giving away $20,000 worth of gifties so get up on it and join. Details are below.
Everything is going down tomorrow, May 9th so prepare yourself. Enjoy the live stream and here’s hoping you’re a winner!!
Being a contributor and writer in the Fashion industry has its perks. One of said perks being I can go to NYFW and witness the amazing designers debut their collections. No I’m not just trying to make you jealous (maybe a little). I’m actually talking about the FW 2013-2014 collection shown by the very talented Elliot Giffs.
Labeled ‘Never Forever’ it premiered this year NYFW in Feb for Fall/Winter 2013. I don’t know where Elliot Giffis has been hiding because his collection was amazingly unique and high fashion.
Seeing this menswear collection was refreshing. It tickled my freak chic fashion bone by being something akin to ninja gear for a metro sexual. Although most collections that are shown at NYFW usually show a bit more of an Americanized style, his reflects more of an international quality.
Curious yet? Check out the amazing runway photos from the Elliot Evan Fall/Winter 2013 collection pour homme.
Huge thanks to Michael Shane PR for show invite and photos (Fashionable love and Champagne kisses darling!).
Let’s face it. Season 5 was a total bust. I am a long time fan of True Blood but they totally failed me in Season 5. There was not enough sex, there was not enough blood and the plot was so thin, a 1-year-old with a butter knife could have cut through it.
I guess there were a few highlights. All involving Eric half nekkid. Other than that, we learned fairies are lame, like sex and all vampires are narcissists. This could be season 2.
And then there was the Season 6 trailer…..and it made me say….
Sweet Jesus.
With a limited run of only a few episodes we have everyone naked, more blood than a 80s gore movie, tons of battling, shoot ’em up, blood lust AND…..lots of Eric’s awesome chest. Way to go Mr. Skarsgard, you’ve been hitting the gym. (Team Sweden FTW!!)
Words cannot explain the joy I got (especially below the waist) when watching this. Sex, Blood and gospel music. It’s a WIN!
