    Downtown Los Angeles Retro Bars

    There is a new bar opening downtown called Salvage--everything in it has been salvaged from old buildings in Los Angeles--should be very cool. It is in the ground floor of the Roosevelt lofts on 7th Street, accross from Macy's. Should be opening any day now....

    Favorite Vintage Perfumes

    From a man's point of view, I have to say that nothing smells as good as Shalimar. It is as famous as it is for a reason. It smells as great on your grandmother as it does on a nubile young 18 year old. In fact, your grandmother probably wore it as an 18 year old! Guerlain makes wonderful...

    Tanqueray and Tonic with a slice of lime. You'll never get malaria--or scurvy--if you stick with these!

    Hats continue their comeback

    I think that there are more hats on the street in Los Angeles, and whenever I go to a hat store (very few and far between here in LA) I see a lot of trying and buying. I was just in the Hollywood Hattery and trade was brisk--yes, much of what is sold are the less expensive "fashion" hats, but...

    Cologne and perfume

    Have been wearing Caron's 1934 classic "Pour un Homme" lately; really amazing how vintage--and yet modern--it is. Not a big lavender fan, but in this one it is really nice, once it settles down.
