The party was thrown by The Zut Alors, the most adorable band in Nashville. Another band played with them, shown in the photo. They were really good, but I didn't catch their name--a friend of Benjamin's, though. After that a couple DJs took over.
Check out this male model I was talking to at the party. Isn't he hot?
And check it out, Rosa went home with his hot brother. Lucky girl!
I wore this to go see Liars the other night. It was a great show--they played all the songs I was hoping for, plus a surprise cover of Bauhaus's "In The Flat Field."
These space print leggings are a gift from my friends at New Amendment Clothing in Los Angeles, who completely spoil me. If you're on the hunt for leggings in LA, check them out, because if you like my collection, you'll love theirs. I LOVE these leggings! They're similar to my Twitter background. Nothing is more beautiful than the universe, no contest. So I guess I'm following up the most beautiful fishnets in the world with the most beautiful leggings. If I keep this up, you're eventually going to turn on me.
This is obviously not a clip from the show in Nashville, but you get the idea.
I wore this to an album release party the other night.

Have you ever seen a more beautiful pair of fishnets? These are multicolor floral with glittery lurex threads. Beautiful! The effect is surprisingly very subtle and almost nude. Looking closely, it's kind of like looking at newspaper photos with a magnifying glass.
Claudia Estrada used the galaxy as inspiration for her ClaudiaE Fall 2010 Collection. The bright yellow blown-up leopard design on these satin cigarette pants is almost unrecognizable as an animal print! It's reminiscent of burning coals in the lake of fire or film blotches. I love the new wave neon blue chevrons on the top as well. (more...)
Love & Beauty (Forever 21) "Turquoise" - A very sheer teal cream. Only good for layering on other colors.
BonBons - Shimmery fruit-scented blueberry and lime from a rainbow multi-pack. Average quality, just for fun.
Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear "Green With Envy" - A high quality lime green, not quite neon. Opaque with one stroke, long-lasting (1-2 weeks without any chips). Cream finish.
Petites "Tahitian Green" - Petites is an underrated, underpriced drugstore brand. These are only $1.50, and total high quality. Opaque in two coats, ultra-long-lasting (two weeks, no chips). This one is a tropical rainforest green, a mix of teal and emerald. The finish is somewhere between shimmery and cream, exactly like a car's paint--cream from afar but shimmery if you look closely.
N.Y.C. "Skin Tight Denim Creme" - Calls itself a creme but is definitely shimmery. A dark navy, opaque in two coats. This is another drugstore brand that is very decent. It is a long-wearing formula but only sometimes makes it to a full week. I'd say more like five days, which is respectable for a $1 nail polish.
Essie "Mesmerize" - I'm wearing this on my thumb. A dark cream blue. Essie seems to dry a shade darker than the bottle. Opaque with one stroke, ultra-long-lasting (two weeks, no chips). Somewhat staining.
Petites "Dare" - A very beautiful, sheer, glittery blue. The glitter is clear like water bubbles. Beautiful! Opaque in two coats if I remember clearly. I don't wear this nearly enough because glitter nail polish is such a royal pain to remove. Ironically, I do seem to remember this chipping sooner than non-glitter Petites.
Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear "Blue Me Away!" - This isn't photographing quite accurately. It's more vivid than these photos show. I'm wearing it on my index finger. A perfect, bright blue cream--not quite neon, but would pass with other neon colors. Opaque in one stroke, wears for 1-2 weeks without chipping.
Essie "Lapis Of Luxury" - A total misnomer for a solid periwinkle. The other Essie I have is more of a lapis. They should have switched the names. I'm wearing this one on my middle finger. It takes three coats to reach opacity, but lasts for two weeks without chipping--maybe even longer. A very pretty, unique color, almost lavender but a little too blue.
Petites "Hot Rod" - A favorite of mine. Benjamin and I call it "Dear You Blue," after the Jawbreaker record. A sweet pastel baby blue with a car-paint finish. Opaque in 2-3 coats, wears for two weeks without chipping. I'm wearing it on my pinky.
China Glaze "For Audrey" - I just recently got this. It's an exact match for Tiffany's Blue, a gorgeous turquoise blue, in honor of Audrey Hepburn's Holly Golightly. I L.O.V.E. this because I've spent a decade searching for a true turquoise nail polish. No exaggeration. This comes as close to the stone as anything I've ever found. I'm curious to try Essie's "Turqs And Caicos" but it seems like it might be more of a sea green than a turquoise blue. Opaque in 1-2 coats. Long-wearing, but I've only had it on my toes for two weeks so I can't truly judge yet. No chips on my toes, though. I'm wearing this now on my ring finger.
My position on nail polish: If it doesn't stay on for at least one week (preferably two weeks) without chipping, it's garbage. Can nail polish really last two weeks without chipping? Yes! And on someone who types all day, takes baths, and washes dishes.
Clockwise from left: Petites "Hot Rod," China Glaze "For Audrey," Essie "Lapis Of Luxury," Sally Hansen Xtreme "Blue Me Away!" (more vivid blue in real life), Essie "Mesmerize" on thumb.
