This Saturday at One Colorado in Pasadena KCRW is hosting one of its Summer Nights with DJ Dan Wilcox spinning and Mr. Little Jeans going on live. It looks awesome. And out of the kindness of their hearts, it’s free. I am going. Who is in? An old Joe’s shot above. It just feels like a summer night.

Joe Arthur, The Ballad of Boogie Christ

Posted on June 17, 2013 by Hellin Kay

LOVE this track, “The Saint of Impossible Causes,” off Joe Arthur‘s The Ballad of Boogie Christ, which came out last week. I met Joe a few times at Adria Petty‘s house parties years ago when she lived in the East Village. Adria and I met in the spring of 2002 on a photo shoot I did for Nylon in Berlin (it was my first shoot for Nylon) while she was writing about films for Marvin Jarrett. We became fast film friends and Joe was a friend of hers and Anna Gabriel. I listened to the other tracks on this album and each one is spot on. I know exactly which one of my friends is getting this for her birthday. You know who you are chicita. Joe is playing the Troubadour this Thursday June 20th.

Happy Father’s Day

Posted on June 16, 2013 by Hellin Kay

C

Happy Father’s day to my father, and my dad, both of whom I love so much. My dad married my mom when I was 17 in Baltimore, and he is the best father I’ve ever had. He has been there for every major event and heart break, paid for countless trips to the car repair shop in high school and always stood by me through mistakes and triumphs. My father, who mom and I left behind in Moscow when we emigrated was wonderful all those brief years I got to spend with him and all the moments I got to know him again when we reunited when I was 21 and returned to Moscow for the first time in fifteen years, until he passed away in 1999. Above, my father with his mother and my grandmother in January 1995, in Moscow. Happy Father’s Day to all of the amazing men who help shape us.

Pretty In Pink, Day Look

I watched Pretty in Pink (one of the best films ever made, RIP John Hughes) again for the 100th time last weekend and as usual got inspired by all the great fashion in the film. Did John Hughes invent flower print socks? It kind of feels that way. Miss Selfridge nude 3D prom dress, Madewell outbound olive jacket, Harrow lace up oxford, Celeste Stein flower socks (the best), Gucci wide brimmed felt hat, and Linda Farrow acetate and snakeskin sunglasses and of course The Psychedelic Furs’ “Pretty in Pink” track on 12″ vinyl. “Let’s plow.” Continue reading →
