Sex

The countdown has begun. Only seven days until the most anticipated movie of the year for people with breasts opens in theaters. I’m talking about Sex and the City: The Movie people, and if you say you don’t care you are a liar. I’ll be the one standing in line…

Talking Shop: Common Threads

When Libby Alexander and Mae Martin opened Common Threads in Boulder last fall, their intent was two-fold: On one hand, it would serve as a business tailored to Alexander’s design background, and on the other, it would provide an outlet for girls from AIM House, a local youth residential mentoring…

Candy Girls: Original Peanut Chew

This week we have a special guest commentator, J “I love grandpa candy” Kellermeyer. That’s not really his middle name, but it sure is what we like to call him. J is a connoisseur of all sorts of candy that you probably thought they stopped making in 1953. He’s been…

Fashion on the ‘Fax

Not only is she skinny, tan, beautiful and can wear anything, she is totally cool which pisses me off because I can’t hate her. I think Bobby needs a stronger prescription on those glasses so he can check the mirror before he leaves the house. Style maven and Colfax Avenue…

Classic Amusement

A lot can change in 100 years, but the greatest thing about Lakeside Amusement Park is how much everything has stayed the same. You can still take a spin around the lake in “Puffing Billy” and “Whistling Tom,” the park’s original miniature steam engines that were installed for the opening…

Spring For Less Bling

Once the temperature threatens to reach 80 degrees on a regular basis, I must shop. Sure, there are all those old spring and summer clothes in my closet, but to truly feel like the nice weather is here, I need to buy some new shoes (and skirts and jewelry). First,…

My Milkshake Brings All the Boys to the Yard

I love cereal, I love milkshakes. So when Carl’s Jr. introduced their new Cap’n Crunch Milkshake, I was immediately putty in their hands. Or I should say I wanted to be putty. The trouble was twofold: 1) I don’t much frequent Carl’s Jr. and 2) I accidentally caught a glimpse…

Look of the Day — America’s Happiest Couple

This past April I went to Kim’s house to do my taxes. When the process was complete I shouted, “This is horseshit! How the hell do I owe the government any money?! I’m broke as it is!!! Come to think of it, why do I have to pay taxes, at…

Net Worth

The concept at Positive Strokes, a Greenwood Village shop combining women’s tennis and fitness gear with wellness programs just for the ladies, was different enough to garner a Best of Denver award earlier this year (here’s what we said about it). But here’s another reason to go check it out:…

Candy Girls: Strawberry Milkshake Whoppers

Can a candy with a malted center ever really be milkshake-flavored? Wouldn’t it automatically be malt-flavored? This obviously isn’t a question the marketing people at Hershey’s worried themselves over, and it certainly didn’t stop us from picking up a giant pink pack of the candies when we spied them in…

I Want Candy: Introducing the Candy Girls

If you’ve got a sweet tooth, you’ve come to the right place. Welcome to Candy Girls, where we, your faithful candy enthusiasts, Aubrey and Liz, will review a new sweet treat every Friday. We’ll be on the lookout for oddball delectables, out-of-the-ordinary confections, and all those bizarre sweets you always…

Workin’ on the Chain Gang

You all have one lurking in a drawer somewhere, girls: a nasty tangle of broken and knotted gold chains, mateless earrings with twisted posts and, I dunno, something made of shiny metal that might have once come out of a bubblegum machine. And you can part with this stuff, believe…

Denver’s Shear Genius Stylist

When the second season of Bravo’s “creative competition” show Shear Genius premieres in June, Denver will be represented by Charlie Price, co-owner of Click Salon, located at 231 Milwaukee Street. The first show airs on June 25, with stylists competing to “cut or get cut” (sounds violent, doesn’t it?). Should…

In Like A Lion

After endlessly teasing us with nice weather that never really stuck around, it looks like the gods have finally decided to go ahead with spring — and what better way to celebrate than with the Lion Project’s Spring Patio Kick-Off? Tonight at 7 p.m., you’ll finally get to enjoy kicking…

Look of the Day – American Idol Look-A-Likes

See Slide Show Here’s the thing – I sorta think American Idol has become a parody of itself, but I still can’t stop watching it. As near as I can tell, the show panders to three specifics demographics. As long as there are opiates there will be heroine addicts and…

A New Look for Spring

Get a free cut and style for spring, and help out kids, too. Talk about inspiring. Paul Guerrie is only a sophomore at Ponderosa High School in Parker, but he’s already majored in community philanthropy. When he was in 8th grade, Paul decided to grow out his hair with the…

Over the Weekend: FRESH Fashion Market

Slide Show Saturday’s Fashion Market featured original work by over 25 local designers. The looks were fun, fabulous and most definitely fresh. If your spring wardrobe needs a breath of fresh air, check out this slide show, featuring accessories and runway fashion from the market. – Aubrey Shoe…

Spring Fashion Extravaganza

Today’s weather is absolutely beautiful, but I can barely enjoy it since all I can think about is the sad state of my closet. I want flirty skirts and kitten heels in the freshest colors and styles for spring, yet my warm wool trousers and cashmere sweaters are still taking…

If you love sexy pin-up photography, don’t miss tonight’s Naughty Mambo Pin-Up Party. In addition to in-the-flesh pin-up babes, the party will feature a fashion show, art, music, dance, comedy and more. For more information, click here…

Look of the Day – Paulina Szafranski

Madonna called. She wants her boots back. Lotus Entertainment’s marketing director, Paulina Szafranski, dropped by the office, channeling Madonna’s Vanity Fair cover (and maybe a little bit of Julia in Pretty Woman) in a pair of crazy-fierce, over-the-knee boots. You want a pair? Too bad. They will, eventually, be available…

Spotlight on Mom

It certainly doesn’t have to cost you an arm and a leg to show Mom you care this Mother’s Day — although if you have the cash, you sure can score some beautiful, keepsake items. In case you haven’t done your shopping yet, here are few fashionable ideas for Mom…

Calling All Cowgirls and Cowboys

If you want to know what Colorado and the west looks like, then head on over to the new Rockmount Ranch Wear and Liberty Boot exibit at the Denver Public Library’s central branch. The display is a fashion-lovers paradise (if only we could buy all of the beautiful boots and…
