Throwback Thursday With Hoobastank and Stryker, Oh MY!

by on
Launch of our friend Jaimarie's official website - from left to right:  Katie, Kenny, Zack, Jason Sarcinelli, Jaimarie, Dan, Jenna, Stryker, and Jamie.


Today's #ThrowbackThursday is from the 2008 launch of Jaimarie.com, complete with rock stars, movie stars, television stars, radio stars, and even stars from the writing room of our favorite shows.  Great group for a great cause!  Loved meeting the guys from Hoobastank, and Kenny and I loved  discussing the profound moments of Family Guy with Stryker, our favorite KROQ Deejay!  Jaimarie was tanned by Kona Katie for the event, and we think she looks AMAZING!  Congrats again, Jai!

Fake Fashion Braces Make For Trendy Faces

by on
I remember getting braces at 20 years old, hoping for a perfect set of pearly whites by the time my 21st birthday rolled around.  I felt too old for them even then, but I figured that it's best to get them over with - it'll never get easier!  I remember it like it was yesterday, because my orthodontist had a terrible surprise for me: he thought I had requested gold braces.  Maybe because rappers had just introduced the world to grills, or maybe because he had hoped to match my smile to my reddish-orange hair, I really don't know where the mistake was made.  I can laugh at it now, but at the time I couldn't get out of that office fast enough!  I was horrified!  

Everything worked out though, because braces didn't keep me from meeting my husband.  Even though I did everything I could to distract attention away from my teeth, he thought they were cute!  Had I only known that there would be a time (in my own lifetime!) that braces could actually be IN STYLE!

New beauty trend - fake braces
2013 opened up with a strange new trend straight from Asia, and it's a real head-scratcher:  fake braces! But seriously, would you really choose these notoriously undesirable accessories?  It's about time metal mouths became enviable.  (Having had them, I'm just not sure that I'll ever envy them.  EVER.) 
According to Cosmopolitan, "Braces are the next big thing - it's about time we stopped associating them with being un-snoggable!  In Indonesia, Thailand and China, braces are cool. Fashion braces are a hot new beauty trend symbolising wealth, status and style."
However, beauty can hurt!  Cosmo continues, "This totally professional dental accessory is moving toward DIY - now that's just stupid.  Real braces can already cause quite a bit of health risks from tooth decay to mouth sores, but fake braces can potentially lead to death.
"After two Thai girls died from infections caused by bad bracing, the government put up a ban on them, making them an even hotter commodity. It's now hit the black market and online through dodgy websites."
What do you think of this hard to believe beauty trend?

Throwback Thursday With Gold Apartment Lobbies In NYC

by on
Because sometimes you run into a golden room when you're tanning in New York.
 Today's #ThrowbackThursday is from 2011 in New York City!  Kona Kenny and I were running through the city airbrushing models for the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, and ran into this awesome lobby while we took a breather.  The model who lived here was one of our favorites, but we'll never forget the random floor-to-ceiling room of gold....just because!  After all, we were in NYC to make people golden - why not rest in a golden room?
