Let’s Do 2016 Like Sam Herring of Future Islands

January 13, 2016 by Kristen Philipkoski Filed Under: Art & Design, Events, Travel 2 Comments

Sam Herring of Future Islands

Photos by Kristen Philipkoski Last year I went to the Governors Ball Music Festival in New York City, and the highlight of the 3-day event was seeing Future Islands perform. Not only is the band’s music fantastic, but lead singer Sam Herring, as you can see here, is an incredible front man. And while this was […]

Transform Your Family Photos Into Art

October 14, 2015 by Kristen Philipkoski Filed Under: Art & Design, Home 1 Comment

I love my family and have always wanted to display photos of my parents, cousins, grandparents, in-laws—especially those treasured moments from back in the day when we used FILM. But I’ve never found a way to display family photos that feels right. While some have mastered the look, I’m not one for a cornucopia of […]

A ’70s Denim Jumpsuit and a $100 Giveaway

June 2, 2015 by Kristen Philipkoski Filed Under: Art & Design, Family, Outfits 1 Comment

Photos by Kourosh Karimkhany We’ve got a lot to cover in today’s post so let’s get started. Isn’t it funny how pretty much every instructional video begins that way? Anyway, I have been wanting to shoot photos at Shelldance Orchid Gardens since the moment I laid eyes on it about four years ago when we […]

Come On-a My House!

May 30, 2015 by Kristen Philipkoski Filed Under: Art & Design, Family, Home, Outfits Leave a Comment

Since Mode published this video of my hippie beachside home the other day, I can’t get that Rosemary Cloony song out of my head. Somehow the miracle-working Mode crew edited around my stuttering, tripping (don’t wear heels on shag carpet) and looking in the wrong direction to put together this amazing video. If you’ve been following my […]

Closet Elimination Project: Phases 1-3

March 4, 2015 by Kristen Philipkoski Filed Under: Art & Design, Family, Home 1 Comment

The first step is admitting you have to give up your walk-in closet. The second step is having a good cry. The third step is formulating a plan for what in god’s name you’re going to do will all of your clothes. This has been my closet for the past four years, and the rest […]

Seven Practical Ways to Use a Moroccan Pouf in Your Home

December 10, 2014 by Kristen Philipkoski Filed Under: Art & Design, Home Leave a Comment

On an outdoor patio. Photo via Cush and Nooks I bought a white leather Moroccan pouf the other day at the Serena and Lily outlet,  and I’m so into it! First it was the hanging rattan chair, and now once again S + L has fulfilled a years-long dream of mine to own a particular furniture item. […]

What Rocker Alison Mosshart Wore at Art Basel Miami Beach

December 5, 2014 by Kristen Philipkoski Filed Under: Art & Design, Luxury 2 Comments

Photo by Robyn Ross I’ve attended Art Basel Miami Beach nearly every year since 2006 with my bestie Robyn. But I couldn’t make it this year, and so of course this is the year when she runs into my favorite rocker chick Alison Mosshart. If you’re not familiar, she’s one-half of The Kills with Jamie […]

I’ve teamed up in the past with Serena & Lily, makers of interior magic, and I’m excited to collaborating with them once again to spread the word about their discount outlet in Berkeley. They’re offering up merchandise with small dents and dings as well as samples through December 8 only at a temporary outlet in […]

Virginia Elwood Adapts Toca Boca Characters as Temporary Tattoos—You’ll Want a Permanent One!

November 4, 2014 by Kristen Philipkoski Filed Under: Art & Design, Family, Fashion Leave a Comment

  So don’t tell my mom, but I’m obsessed with the idea of getting a tattoo. I’ve seen so many beautiful ones on women I admire recently. (I confess this began with a marathon viewing of L.A. Ink.) Plus, I figure, I’m 46 years old. At least half of my life has been lived without […]
