celebrity catwalk comes to dollhouse

Indashio, front and center
Behind him, Gretchel Hill shoots Celebrity Catwalk host, Krista-Ayne


Last Thursday, the cast and crew from Celebrity Catwalk came to our NYC Showroom to shoot what's hot and cool at Dollhouse. CC is going to air the Webisode in the coming weeks, so we'll keep you posted.

We got some fun behind-the-scenes pics of the taping that we thought you'd like. Fashion designer and celebrity stylist Indashio was totally larger than life and a great host. He sported his own handmade tee and some pretty cool high-shine silver high-tops. Check out his Website here. Super-sweet actress/model/Spike TV host Krista Ayne flew in from Miami (with a killer tan) to co-host the show. Check out her Website here.

Indashio picked out some great trends and must-haves from the Dollhouse racks. Wait 'til you see!

Indashio and Krista Ayne in action during the taping


Celebrity Catwalk's Jennifer Bartok holds the boom just off camera.
So this is how the sound gets recorded! What dedication.

PS: I loved their shoes.
Indashio's silver kicks and Krista Ayne's Dollhouse look-a-likes.

miso fly is kinda fly

Check out this fashion blog we found on Twitter today: Miso Fly. She is from the Inland Empire, as it is called, which translates to Southern California. Miso Fly is a boutique too, carrying some pretty great lines. Acutally Miso Fly is two boutiques. One in Redland, CA and the other in Rancho Cucamonga.

Very cute. We will keep reading, for sure.

3:00 sugar



Right about now, the sugar jones is kicking in. It must be 3:00. And quite frankly, we at Dollhouse are curious about what food escapades Blondie and Brownie have been up to lately. Let's take a peek, shall we?

Oh Blondie and Brownie. The visions of sugar plums you plant in our heads. How could we not become addicted to reading your blog?




*Incidentally, Amai, I knew yee, and am sad to see you go. I loved the green tea matcha shake especially when you finally agreed to make it for me with skim milk and much less sugar. It was so chalky and delicious. I guess that explains my dream last night. I dreamt that we went to a Japanese bakery and bought green tea-frosted chocolate cakes. They were pricey at $30 each, so we opted to buy just one. But we got a free hunk of cake to taste and it was delicious. Then we were shown another fabulous cake. It was a cake hidden inside another cake. The inner cake was coated in a thin layer of vanilla frosting and slivvered almonds. The outer cake was vanilla sponge. The two cakes were separated by a small space so one did not disturb the other. How strange. I invented a new cake design in my dream!

our teen vogue it girl survey

The Dollhouse Survey!!! On the Teen Vogue ItGirls site.
We had to keep our name a secret.


Thanks to all who took the Dollhouse survey on the Teen Vogue ItGIRL Website about jeans, shopping and brand awareness. We have been reading your responses and loving them. Right now, we are selecting 20 Dollhouse Brand Ambassadors. Here's a hint: there were a lot of great responses from California. Thanks so much! Stay tuned. We'll announce the winners right here on our blog.

Here's another hint. Is this your response to the last question? If so, we selected you! Congratulations LP.

To me, jeans are the ultimate piece of clothing. For the most part, all I wear is jeans. They are comfortable, versatile, and such subtle changes to denim can really serve as a keystone fashion piece. I currently own a pair of Dollhouse jeans that are just totally worn out. For awhile, they were my number one pair, but I absolutely wore them OUT. I love Dollhouse, they always have absolutely great washes, which are super important to me. Also, I love sharing my favorite things with my friends and really have a hard time NOT raving about the things that I like. My friends and I often discuss our latest new fashion choices-- like making my new favorite clothes color mustard, etc. I'm a Southern California girl, so it's not surprising that clothes and fashion are very important in letting myself become a unique individual.


The Dollhouse survey was Chic and Unique.

japanese italian fusion?

Basta Pasta Japanese-Italian Fusion menu. [Click image to enlarge]


I think we can safely assert that when it comes to fine dining, "the 2000s" is the decade of Fusion Cuisine. I am not complaining, because I love anything East-meets-West. I love a good mélange. A creative juxtaposition of tastes.

In New York, we are lucky to be able to sample some of the more outré concepts in fusion, such as Indian-Chinese (Chinese Mirch, Indo Munch, Indo Wok) and Japanese-Italian (Basta Pasta), as well as the more accepted but still pretty delicious Cuban-Asian (Asia de Cuba), Japanese-Brazilian (Sushi Samba) and the long-standing Upper West Side curiosity, Cuban-Chinese-Caribbean (La Caridad 78).

I suppose when you've eaten all there is to eat, and are still seeking something totally new and unexpected, Fusion is the new frontier. Tonight I am off to Basta Pasta on W 17th Street to sample some Spaghetti with Fresh Sea Urchin. Or perhaps I will just stick with the Homemade Silk Handkerchief Pasta with Mixed Mushroom. Having sampled Shakey's Squid, Seaweed and Corn Pizza in Japan a few years ago to mixed reviews, I may just have to gently ease my way into this particular juxtaposition of tastes.

meditate on these great designs



We found these optical yoga mats from yogamatic.com on the Lucky Girl blog today. While bending yourself into a pretzel, you may want to consider a yoga mat decorated with pretzels... Or at least with donuts. Imagine the disapproving looks you'd get from the rest of your class. It is good to have a sense of humor about these things.
