Easy Fancy Manicure: Rainbow Nails

August 9, 2017 by kourosh Filed Under: Beauty, Featured Posts Leave a Comment

I can wind up down a rabbit hole of nail art DIY videos any day of the week and then wonder what just happened to the past hour of my life. In fact, it took me about three days to write this post for that very reason. But in reality, I have neither the time […]

The Kitten and I Use the Same Colorist

Hey guys! Isn’t it awesome that Wrangler is doing this throwback 70th anniversary collection? It’s one of those Americana companies that I feel a deep nostalgia for. I and all of my friends wore Wrangler jeans when we were kids, and I love these styles that harken back to the 70s.  Also, in case you […]

Dark Interior Style for a Dark Year

interviewing Sofi Tukker

Treasure Island Music Festival turned out to be my first fest during a downpour. I had seen the photos from Glastonbury and muttered to myself that those people must be nuts.

pink as fuck

This t-shirt The Pia store opening in San Francisco at 414 Jackson Street, with brands including Giambattista Valli, Zimmermann, A.L.C., Zac, much more, + Anna-Alexia Basile’s incredible installation Local Natives at the Fox Theater in Oakland tomorrow night—tickets still available at StubHub. Worth a last minute Sensible Sitters booking IMO, if only for the mustache. This new NYT culture podcast called […]

Clark Griswald Would Love These Shoes

April 7, 2011 by kourosh Filed Under: Art & Design, Fashion Leave a Comment

Kourosh here (that’s Mr. Stylenik to you). Mrs. Stylenik asked me to check out these, ahem, “colorful” oxford shoes by Rachel Comey. At first glance I liked the black ones showcased on this product page — until I noticed the soles are purple. The other variations are banana yellow and glaring traffic-light red. The shape […]

kitchen battlestation

While researching how to decorate our 1970’s-style new home in Pacifica, we came across this awesome kitchen. Apparently, people in the 1970’s sat in a Star Trek-like battlestation to cook. Red alert!
