This month’s Vanity Fair features guest editor Bono and a cover about Africa. Twenty covers actually. Here’s a handy cheat sheet of them all, so you can be sure to get your very fave. Cat’s gotta vote for Barack and Don or Iman and Don — always gotta go for…
(Photos by Mark Manger) The Summer Guide is finally here. On stands today (Thursday, June 7). Cat is pretty happy with how it turned out. Even though we were photographing in a bone-chilling downpour, all the fashion images look beautiful. Dark and moody and maybe not so summery, but, hey,…
Happy day, happy day! Cat just stumbled on Plasticland, which features the most darling dresses (and more) for cheap. Like Forever 21 prices. (Okay, maybe a little more.) If you like vintage styling or a rock-and-roll edge to sweet, classic pieces, you’ll love what they’re offering. Cat just better not…
Bold proclamation time: There wouldn’t even be an Xbox 360 without Halo. Microsoft lost billions on the original Xbox even with its mega-successful sci-fi games, so it’s hard to imagine the red ink that would have spilled without them; even suggesting a second go at the console business would’ve had…

Q: What books are you looking forward to reading this summer, and what is your literary guilty pleasure? “The books I recommend are all serious and sometimes dark. I can’t help it; I like it that way. This summer I’ll be reading Snow, Ashes, by Alyson Hagy; Spring Tides, by…
Idle Wild It’s patio season again, and Denver has a bevy of beauties. So whether you’re whiling away a morning, noon or night, grab a book or just your best people-watching goggles and set up camp. Just remember to order often — and tip your waitstaff. Gaia Bistro on Old…
Growing up in Fruita, I hated summer. It was hot and miserable. There was no air- conditioning in my father’s old Ford truck, and I’d either stick to the vinyl seats or itch for days if we put on the covers. My mother liked to call the area the “lunar…
Colorado Springs is overlooked as a travel destination, its charms overshadowed by Focus on the Family, tales of Ted Haggard and the suburban sprawl along Academy Boulevard. But the downtown and west side make for a delightful two-day getaway that doesn’t require breaking the bank for gas. Day One No…
When it’s hot out, there’s nothing so refreshing as a dip in 104-degree water. Afterward, the air feels cooler, tensions are gone, and the world seems an altogether better place. Whether for an afternoon splurge or a weekend of play, Colorado has plenty of hot springs ready and bubbling. Indian…
Ever since I read Huerfano: A Memoir of Life in the Counterculture, by Roberta Price, I’ve been obsessed with the south-central portion of our state. Her experiences living in a hippie commune deep in the Huerfano Valley, outside of Walsenburg, fascinate me. So whenever I get out of town for…

Cat found this lovely dress on a very lovely lady while at the Starbucks on Larimer Square. (Yes, yes, sacrilege for a support-local gal. She knows. But Starbucks makes the best iced tea, and Cat doesn’t drink coffee. Market, if you would brew better iced tea, Cat would come there.)…
Slide show Cat missed the MADE event at The Fabric Lab on Saturday night – she resprained her ankle and was thus out of commission — but luckily The Cat’s Pajamas contributor Drew Bixby was on hand to send over photos and a missive of his thoughts:…
Shocked, shocked Cat was: Last night Oscar de la Renta (above left) tied with Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez of Proenza Schouler (above right) for the top Council of Fashion Designers of America award. (According to UK Vogue, presenter Ellen Barkin was shocked, too, only announcing de la Renta before…
Here are a few additional fashion images from the Summer Guide, which comes out this Thursday, June 7. Anna Newell is ready to serve in the OwnYourC.com ice-cream truck, wearing a “Japanese Tea Garden” dress by Mona Lucero. Pretty sweet — especially because the poor girl is being photographed outside…
Cat is so stoked. Inordinately excited, actually. The Horndribbles — Lucas Richards’s and Sarah Cassidy’s weird plushy monsters you’ve seen displayed at WaterCourse, the Fabric Lab, Andenken, Fakture and other venues around town — are doing a show at Fancy Tiger this weekend. And they’re presenting T-shirts with the visages…
Fashionista is reporting today that the new pine cone earrings and necklace by Catherine Weitzman are sending “shivers down our spine.” Lately, you can’t walk down the street without seeing antlers – whether in jewelry, screen-printed t-shirts, or bar decorations.
