From Me (Court) To You (?)

Using The Bouqs left and right these days. Send simple, unfussy blooms for $40 flat.

FACT: My girl Chelsa is the only one I trust when it comes to all things beauty. 

Lucky for me (and you), she's launched a smart new line of cosmetics called Stowaway that offers bite sized beauty products. The full kit fits in one hand, making it the perfect mini makeup for when I'm on the go with my mini me.

TO PACK AND WEAR: 2 skirts 2 jerseys or leotards 1 pullover sweater 2 pair shoes stockings bra nightgown, robe, slippers cigarettes bourbon bag with: shampoo toothbrush and paste Basis soap, razor deodorant aspirin prescriptions Tampax face cream powder baby oil TO CARRY: mohair throw typewriter 2 legal pads and pens files house key This is a list which was taped inside my closet door in Hollywood during those years when I was reporting more or less steadily. The list enabled me to pack, without thinking, for any piece I was likely to do. Notice the deliberate anonymity of costume: in a skirt, a leotard, and stockings, I could pass on either side of the culture. Notice the mohair throw for trunk-line flights (i.e. no blankets) and for the motel room in which the air conditioning could not be turned off. Notice the bourbon for the same motel room. Notice the typewriter for the airport, coming home: the idea was to turn in the Hertz car, check in, find an empty bench, and start typing the day’s notes.

My go to meal these days is pasta with Marcella Hazan's Tomato Sauce and basil from the garden.

To follow along at home, just add a can of whole tomatoes, a halved onion, and 5 tablespoons of butter to a saucepan and simmer for 45 minutes. Voila!

Most people are afraid of the dark. Literally when it comes to children, while many adults fear, above all, the darkness that is the unknown, the unseeable, the obscure. And yet the night in which distinctions and definitions cannot be readily made is the same night in which love is made, in which things merge, change, become enchanted, aroused, impregnated, possessed, released, renewed.

Browsing photos of last night's Met Gala and the work of designer Charles James.

Turns out he designed quite a few maternity items, like this fiery red evening coat created for The Mennen Company in 1956. (via Storq)

Fun fact, I majored in dance in college.

My amazing thesis partner Laura, the two of us pictured above rehearsing back in the day, is working on a new choreographic love letter to her hometown of Winnipeg called Careful.

She's launched a Kickstarter to cover rehearsal costs associated with staging the piece and I highly suggest you contribute. She's one talented lady.
