For the sleep-deprived, one of the benefits of being awake at 4 a.m. Saturday morning is being able to catch a rerun of Gunsmoke on TVLand. But that wasn’t Miss Kitty on the screen this weekend. No, it was the fourth installment of You’ve Got the Look, a train wreck…
Chicagoan Carole Frances Lung, better known as Frau Fiber, descends from a long line of seamstresses and works out from under the historical shadow of apparel industry workers, a distinctly underpaid female faction haunted by sweatshop roots yet later uplifted by the solidarity of unions. But the Frau – professional…
You know you’re in deep when the “green” lifestyle goes past reusable bags and recycling. The new trend for eco-friendly pet-owners is the Doggie Dooley, a product for making your dog’s visits to Mother Nature’s bathroom as environmentally sound as possible. The Doggie Dooley is an in-ground septic tank that…
I am from a small, li’l town in eastern Iowa. We have a grocery store, a maximum security prison and a Wal-Mart. My family is still there and I miss them, terribly. I admit that I am often homesick for the slower pace and ease of mind Small Town America…
Tomorrow night, 5 Degrees lounge is taking the evening off from their usual club fare by sponsoring a fashion show for its patrons. The lounge, which has been putting on these shows for eight years, is “very in-tune to the fashion community,” says Marketing Director Josh Gold, since normally the…
Wearing a beautiful piece of clothing just makes you feel good. It does something for your mind, your body, and if you are a shopping addict like myself, it does a bit for your soul. So just imagine how you would feel knowing that piece of clothing is not only…
The words “user-generated content” usually mean you’re about to encounter one of two things: an irritating Super Bowl commercial made by 16-year-olds, or another dramatic chipmunk. Still, people love this stuff. So it’s no surprise that video-game developers are catering to the YouTube generation with “Blast Works: Build, Trade, Destroy”…
As we’ve said before, Coloradans can’t seem to stay out of the news when it comes to undergarments. One local designer has taken our proclivity for exciting new uses for underwear, and translated it into a new business venture. Heather Arellano, the spotlighted designer for this week, can easily sum…
Teen fashion correspondent Sarah Bolliger brings us the teen view of the latest summer fashion trends. Fashion trends seem to change almost every day. Trying to keep up with these trends can be difficult, especially when you are on a budget. We all wish we could wear and own those…
Coloradans sure are getting inventive with their undergarments this summer. First, we had the Thong Bandits who wore women’s thongs over their faces in an attempt to conceal their identity during a robbery in Arvada. Then there was the priest caught jogging naked in Greeley who seemed to spur a…
It’s an experience most every guy can relate to — spotting an absolutely stunning girl hanging off the arm of, well, a complete and utter douchebag. You know the type: overly gelled hair, fugly tattoos, spray-on Cheeto-hued tan, ridiculous bling hanging everywhere… Well, one man has made the study of…
These two pictures represent the female style of Colfax so well. Pink streaks with a sundress and a LBD rockin’ out to some punk music with cocktail in hand. — Rossy Kay…
Slide Show It was all food, fashion, fun and wild animals at last Thursday’s Do At The Zoo. The Silk & Spice themed gala brought out Denver’s finest for the evening. More than 40 restaurants were serving up treats, including a taste of molecular gastronomy offered by O’s Steak &…
Click on photo to see slide show Omigawd! It’s Gay Pride Eve and I haven’t even started my holiday shopping! Lucky for me, just a few blocks down from the office is a little boutique… nay… little Mecca for Denver’s “alternative lifestyles.” Studio Lites Wig Boutique has been a Broadway…
Everyone knows that a good pair of jeans is a girl’s best friend, and more than a few of us also know how hard it is to find that elusive grail. But if you can’t chance upon the perfect fit this weekend off the endless racks at the Warehouse Sale,…
First of all, deep down inside, every mom knows her baby is beautiful. The tot could have two heads and, yes, it would still be beautiful. But the real question here is this: Is your child a rock star? Perhaps the only way to find out is to call hipster…
Maybe it’s just that competitive reality shows have hit the tipping point. Maybe it’s that being a “star” on HGTV is sort of like being the quickest runner at fat camp. Maybe it’s that fast design isn’t usually good design. Whatever the reason, HGTV’s reality show Design Star needs to…
In a wonderful marriage of food and fashion, tonight’s Do At The Zoo should present fabulous eats from over 40 of Denver’s top restaurants as well as plenty of fashionable guests in tropical cocktail attire. The event is themed “Silk and Spice” and proceeds will help to build the zoo’s…
Pink hair streaks, huge shades and a Johnny Cash inspired shirt….stop being so damn cute Holli! I loved this top because it is the perfect mesh of casual and dressy. It could be worn to a party or to take multiple shots of tequila, like Amy was doing. — Rossy…
It’s probably a good thing Game On wasn’t around to review Ninja Gaiden when it hit Xbox in 2004 — we probably would’ve written “an awesome, brutal, majestic action masterpiece,” then filled the rest of the space with crude crayon drawings of ninjas. Because really, there’d be nothing else to…
Making your own fashion and art isn’t always easy, and Denver’s fashion community could always use more options for those without the means or knowledge to create their own style. In finding out about a local designer, I unearthed an interesting option for anyone interested in making their own fashion…
