I’ve been up to my eyeballs art directing/designing Holiday stuff!
First of all, check out this flyer for Hot Holiday, the party I’m hosting with Soviet Panda at Jetset. Isn’t he a festive fellow?
Hot Holiday
With Soviet Panda
Friday, 12/11 • 10-Close
Jetset • 115 N 1st St
2008’s Hot Holiday party was such a success that we’re back for more this year! Warm up to a very special disco-oriented set from DJ Soviet Panda (of Too Much Love at First Avenue). Word has it that a couple local celebrities will be in attendance, and if last year’s bash is any indication, you’ll be rubbing elbows with an interesting and extremely good-looking crowd.
$3 Vodka soda/tonic • $5 Vodka RedBull

Next, take a look at Jubilee and Black Christmas, a double-whammy of stylish holiday events, and my first project as l’étoile magazine’s staff designer:
Jubilee is a private event, but here’s the skinny on Black Christmas:
Join the ladies of Blacklist Vintage on Friday, December 11th for a fashionable shopping soiree that's sure to get you in the holiday spirit! Co-presented with l'étoile magazine, this shopping event doubles as a pre-party for the l'étoile/blacklist 1950s-themed, secret location holiday shindig, Jubilee, on December 19th.
Blacklist and l'étoile stylists will be on hand all evening to help you put together the perfect Mad Men-esque look for not only our party on the 19th, but for any festive occasion this holiday season! Offering the most carefully curated selection of men's & women's vintage clothing, hats and accessories in town, you're sure to find just what you're looking for at Blacklist.
Friday's event includes:
• a 10% discount on everything in the store
• complimentary champagne and cookies
• tunes from hot lady DJ duo Double Trouble
• personal styling assistance from Blacklist and l'étoile
• a chance to secure your RSVP for Jubilee
