Palisadian Dresses Cast for Westside Ballet's "Nutcracker"

For 39 years, Westside Ballet of Santa Monica has staged 'The Nutcracker.' This year's performances, at 1 and 5 p.m., will be held on the weekends of December 3-4 and December 10-11 at the Wadsworth Theatre, 11301 Wilshire Blvd. in Brentwood.Artistic Director Yvonne Mounsey, founder of Westside Ballet of Santa Monica and former principal dancer with New York City Ballet under George Balanchine, will oversee the production.
Westside Ballet, which draws its company from the affiliated Westside Ballet School, will feature Chung-Myung Park and Palisadian Paloma Connolly (a student at Palisades High School) as the Sugarplum Fairy.Pacific Palisades resident Liz Wasynczuk has served as Westside Ballet's wardrobe director for 16 years.
She trained at the former Ebsen School of Ballet in the Palisades, and later became a ballet instructor. While teaching at the Ebsen School, Liz learned how to design and make costumes and caught the attention of Mounsey. Liz started working at Westside Ballet in the mid-1990s, and has made costumes for the crystal bells and the mirlitons, designed the mice costumes and made dewdrop costumes.Her work on 'The Nutcracker' begins in late September.'Once we get the casting information we call the dancers in for the fittings and organize the moms, who volunteer to help with the alterations and fittings,' Liz says. 'Every week we are fitting a different group of kids.Too Old to Wear a Sheer Dress? Costumes have to be altered and cleaned. We are working right up to the very end and through the performances.'
The pace is hectic. 'There are always last-minute costume changes to be made. I work backstage at all the performances and dress rehearsals with volunteers and moms. We have to make quick changes and work carefully, but somehow it always works out.'One of Liz's best memories of working with Yvonne over the years was when Yvonne asked her to design the crystal bells costumes.
'Yvonne called me into her office one day and told me she was creating a new dance in 'The Nutcracker' that she wanted to call the crystal bells. She needed costumes and she wanted me to create them. Yvonne only told me she wanted them to be blue and white, so I made a costume. She's always been very excited and positive when I bring something to her. I've always had a winning ticket with it. I love working with her.'Liz has two children, Steven, 26, and Ilona, 28 (who began ballet lessons at Westside School of Ballet at age 11).

How do you feel about the recent developments in the fashion industry?

Viet Nam's fashion has witnessed impressive progress, but still, there are typical barriers coming from small issues like the lack of good drawing papers or nice-quality fabric.I know some famous Vietnamese designers who have to buy fabric in Thailand or have it imported from European countries at a price one half as expensive as the same in the US. It's too high in comparison with the living standards in Viet Nam. But our designers have little choice.
Also, I have wandered around to look for good Vietnamese tailors, and have realised most of them are self-taught. Many are not trained systematically, and thus, it is common to see a dress that needs at least five steps to be made in only two or three. The tailor may think the other steps are not necessary, but in fact, they are the ones that determine the quality shape of a dress. That's why, regarding mass products, Vietnamese tailors can only work with simple designs. They don't have enough skills to make sophisticated ones.I joined the show because I really wanted to introduce my collection to the Vietnamese. I am glad to see the achievements that we have gained in the fashion field recently, and now I am ready and eager to contribute something to that development.
In the fall of 1961, I bought four soft black leather skins and made a vest to match Steve's, but fringed the bottom, with a scissors and pushed up multiple colored beads into the fringe. I made a matching shoulder bag with fringe and beads. There was a tiny bit of leather left over and I made a skirt stopping two inches above my knee, which I kept cutting shorter and shorter, thus the birth of the mini. I shortened the leather until he was MINE. I was soon hired as a "pass the hat girl" for the Playhouse Cafe and collected money for my folk singers, Bobby Zimmerman (Bob Dylan), Ritchie Havens, Fred Neil, and Steve, who renamed me "Peaches Latour". Steve was married, had a daughter Lisa, (Rosanna Arquette), and was recently separated from his wife, Brenda, who had been a nude model for artists. I had some serious competition.In my village apartment, I continued to sell leather clothes for men and women and used the money to move to Paris.
Mia and I showed our short leather clothes in the couture shows in Paris July 1964 after having been "discovered " by couturier, Louis Feraud. Our four inch above the knee dresses were called 'YeYe' fashions by the press, not minis. In London in the same summer, John Bates the designer of the house of Jean Veron, one of the first English ready to wear houses, designed above the knee dresses in Pop Art style.

Straub is working on a spring line for Maurices that will have more pieces

Lauren's grandparents, former President George H.W. Bush and former first lady Barbara, we unable to attend because of the high-altitude, but the more recent President Bush was in attendance, along with wife Laura and the couple's twin girls Barbara and Jenna.Other famous names were involved, including Ivanka Trump and Prince Dimitri of Yugoslavia, who did the two-step dance at the reception.Those attending were fed ‘unbelievable, really delicious’ beef for the wedding feast. Lauren is a vegetarian and David abstains from meat in her presence, so there were delicious meat-free options available as well.‘It was very romantic,’ said one onlooker. ‘The couple looked so genuinely happy’.
The 200-year-old barn was decorated with a mix of fragrant roses, lilies, gardenias.By keeping the wedding to 200 people, a number considered small in circles of the political and fashion elite, and embracing the beauty of the surrounding Rocky Mountains, wear the ruby red Phoebe dress,Lauren enjoyed that the wedding had a down-home feel.'You could put out paper plates and confetti, and it would be gorgeous, but we didn’t quite do that,' she said.
Straub, 32, made it to the top five finishers in season six of “Project Runway,” the Lifetime fashion reality show in which aspiring designers compete. While Straub was said to be from Minneapolis during the series airing in 2009, he insisted his hometown was Shakopee, Minn., where he still lives and designs.“This is our first time trying this collection,” Straub said. “The decision was to stick with core sizes. The hope is the response is great. We hope to move into those extended sizes soon.”The entire line will be available online Tuesday at maurices.com and in 80 stores beginning Friday. The accessories and fragrance will be available at the other stores.Company officials say the pieces won’t last long.“When it’s gone, it’s gone,” Hendrickson said. “It pretty much a come-and-get-it-now-or-you-might-miss-out.”But more is coming.Straub is working on a spring line for Maurices that will have more pieces. While the holiday line’s emphasis is on holiday fun, the spring line will be for work and after work events. It will be more subdued, but Straub promises looks and colors that are tropically inspired and a breath of fresh air.

Too Old to Wear a Sheer Dress?

I hope Susan Sarandon will forgive me for this. But her recent wearing of the infamous Stella McCartney polka dot sheer dress really made a mess out of things.I'll be the first to tell you that without fail, like 99% of the time, anyone can pull off anything regardless of age. But this sheer dress on 65-year-old Susan Sarandon may just be the 1 percent.For starters, seen on other, younger celebrities the half-sheer dress was sexy, chic and fitted.
On Susan Sarandon it looks, well, not so much. She – quite inexplicably – opted to wear a very visible nude bra with this dress. And it's totally obvious.These look like the kind of comfort shoes women wear with grainy suntan-colored pantyhose, not with a designer dress that cost well over $1000. Not that there's anything wrong with wearing comfort shoes – it's just that if you need them, you may be past the age of wearing see-through dresses.Susan Sarandon is a gorgeous woman who looks like she took some pretty bad styling advice. Let's hope she goes back to her great-for-her-figure dresses that feature a knotted bodice and shapely styling.
Katy Perry dresses up as a sexy cowgirl and rides a mechanical bull for her Wild West Birthday Ho Down Throwdown on Friday (November 11) in Los Angeles.The 27-year-old pop superstar celebrated her belated birthday with comedian husband Russell Brand, who dressed up as an Indian.“I like all my friends to have a good time,” Katy shared of her all-out birthday bash. “I want them to have an experience.”
Earlier today, JustJared.com posted saloon photo booth pics and details from the ho down throwdown.Party guests pictured here: Adam Lambert and boyfriend Sauli Koskinen, Chuck’s Zachary Levi, Kyle XY’s Matt Dallas and musician Blue Hamilton, Abduction’s Will Peltz and Just Jared’s Jared Eng, Anna Faris and husband Chris Pratt, Robyn, stylist Johnny Wujek, and designer Markus Molinari getting a lap dance.FYI: Katy’s actual birthday was October 25 - she celebrated with a few friends at London’s Electric Cinema, where guests were treated to a showing of the cult classic Ghostbusters.35+ pictures inside of Katy Perry’s Wild West Birthday Ho Down Throwdown…

When it comes to business attire, dress how you want to be perceived

You only get one chance to make the right first impression and quite often another person’s perception of you is how you look. Generally, it is best to err on the side of conservatism when donning business attire.“Dressing for success means different things to different people and industries,” said Dawn Johnson, vice president, membership, Muskegon Lakeshore Chamber of Commerce. “My rule of thumb is, ‘Dress as you want to be perceived.’ You never know when you will meet a future client or employer.”
Johnson said you can always look professional, even if you don’t work in a traditional office setting. Neat, clean, ironed and good-fitting clothing make a statement.“I am frequently asked (about) what is appropriate dress for our chamber events,” Johnson said. “I let them know to come dressed as you would when seeing a prospective client. And if you are unsure of the type of dress, go more traditional. Remember, you never have a second chance at a first impression.”
Paula Baker, an assistant prosecuting attorney in Muskegon County, said her thoughts on business dress are pretty generic considering the fact she wears suits to the office and in the courtroom.“In my career, I’ve found it’s better to dress conservatively,” Baker said.The gathering of the year 2011 Herve Leger is undoubtedly an advantage over reducing. “It’s important to know your audience and to dress accordingly.”She likes to dress up a conservative suit with a pair of fashionable shoes or a colorful blouse.
Eloise Selleck, former businesswoman and current senior volunteer, said things have changed a lot over the years.“We used to wear hats and gloves,” Selleck said. “Now, I feel I have to dress down a bit so as not to stand out.”She believes the objective shouldn’t be about dressing to outshine someone else.“It should come down to how you lead and how you live,” Selleck said.“Today, a person seeking employment needs to be job ready from sunup to sundown, because it’s connections that land the job,” said D. K. Christi, consultant, speaker, author, Muskegon native and current Florida resident. “First impressions cannot be repeated.”
Christi said that although getting the job is the first priority, attention to details apply admirably to moving up on the job.“Today’s emphasis on youth and fitness demands a healthy lifestyle and clothes that are appropriate to the body type, whether casual or for business meetings and interviews,” Christi said. “Dresses are in style again; women can be strong in skills and present elegance with a conservative skirt, blouse and jacket or dress and jacket or sweater. A stylish scarf may be the finishing touch.”

wear the ruby red Phoebe dress

In the meantime she is busy raising funds to pay for her school fees, including teaching dance in primary schools across Wigan, Warrington and her native St Helens. And she's been working with Manchester music impresario Keith Fane, who has previously worked with Russell Watson, Amy Nuttall and Debra Stephenson on their singing careers.Keith says: “Megan is fearless and has what it takes to reach the very top.”
But despite singing in front of theatre audiences before, her appearance on the rugby pitch was by far her biggest moment in the spotlight.It came about through her own rugby links – as her brother, Tom Armstrong, is a promising rugby league player himself. He left Super League side St Helens in the summer – to study petrochemical engineering at Manchester Metropolitan University. But while he completes his studies, he's signed to play as a part-time professional for Swinton Lions in the Rugby League Championship.
Tom was there to cheer his sister with the rest of the Armstrong family on Saturday.After trying out a host of the spectacular creations by Vicky and Nadine, Megan eventually decided on a spectacular black and silver sequin one-shoulder Merabi dress to sing the national anthems on Saturday afternoon.Then, in true showbiz style, Megan did a quick change in time for the interval to wear the ruby red Phoebe dress by Vicky during the interval to belt out her pitch-perfect rendition of Nessun Dorma.
Megan says: “It was really great feedback on the day, I wasn't really expecting it. I didn't have much time to think about how many people were watching, I just went out and sang.“I think everyone was surprised to see me so glammed up – it was a bit of a shock!“Everyone complimented me, my friends said it didn't even look like me!And as for brother Tom?Megan laughs: “He said 'you smashed it Meg', and from him that's quite a big compliment.”Lady Gaga looked comfy and casual at last night's MTV Europe Music Awards in Northern Ireland, where she showed up wearing sweatpants and sneakers. Kidding! Instead she rotated through a melange of shiny Paco Rabanne Spring 2012 dresses paired with Philip Treacy hats, some so architectural you could barely see Gaga behind them.The pop singer earned 4 awards: Biggest Fans, Best Female Act, and Best Song and Best Video for "Born This Way."

Occupy Wall Street Dresses Up for Halloween

Anti-capitalist zombies, equality-preaching gypsies and the "Wicked Witch of Wall Street" converged at Zuccotti Park Monday to celebrate Halloween amid the weeks-long Occupy Wall Street protest.Nearly all of the costumes at the demonstration's home base were protest-related — from a witch draped in photocopied money to a stilt walker carrying a sign reading, "Insatiable Growth is Not Sustainable."
"This is my humorous, Halloween way of saying, 'We can't inflate the economy,'" said the stilt walker, Bibi Farber, 48, a Hudson Valley resident and professional performer who paired her stilts with a sparkly pink outfit."Nothing can keep growing forever," Farber continued, citing the recent housing bubble. "I feel like money is over. We need to turn toward each other and barter and grow our own food."
Several long-term Occupy Wall Street protesters who had just weathered a freezing, exhausting weekend in Zuccotti Park said they dressed up to raise the group's spirits."Instead of politicking about everything, for one day we can have some type of fun," said a 27-year-old man from Queens who goes by "White Tru" and wore the "Ghostface" mask from the "Scream" films."I figure I'll dress up a little bit, scare a few people, have a few laughs," he said.Occupy Wall Street also held costume-crafting workshops for more elaborate corporate-greed-fighting getups, including a new superhero: "Unemployed Man."
Protesters wearing the handmade costumes will march from Zuccotti Park to Greenwich Village for its famous annual Halloween parade.While Occupy Wall Street protesters donned disguises, other people across the city were dressing up as the protesters — a costume the real demonstrators greeted with bemusement."If they're serious about it, I think it's kind of cool," said Yvette Vigo, 45, a Bronx resident who has been living at Occupy Wall Street.
A 22-year-old man from North Carolina who goes by "Poncho" was surprised to hear that anyone would want to be an Occupy Wall Street demonstrator for Halloween."It's kind of sad that we're a pop-culture phenomenon now," he said. "But I guess any sort of exposure is good exposure."
Mariah is the only girl in her school who competes in these beauty pageants and Angela insists that neither she, nor any mums -she knows, encourage their children to grow up before their time.
