Oscars 2010: Christoph Waltz
by Daniel Cummings on March 9th, 2010

Christoph Waltz not only had my favorite performance of the year, as Hans Landa in “Inglorious Basterds”, but looked killer in a nicely tailored shawl collar tux on Oscar night. The beard mixed with the class of a great tux and the perfectly imperfect bow tie made for a great look.

Oscars 2010: The Leading Men
by Kristen Coulson on March 9th, 2010


You may think a tux is a tux is a tux…but when it comes to the men at the Oscars its all in the details. Tom Ford looked dashing and I loved the magnolia that seemed to be made of paper.  Jake Gyllenhaal was classic with a slightly smaller bow tie. Christopher Plumber stole the show in my book. His navy tux jacket and red pocket scarf made him every bit the leading man. Taylor Lautner’s skinny shawl collar tux was a great update on a classic style.

Google KC – The Future Of Kansas City?
by Ryan Strong on March 9th, 2010

We’ve all seen science fiction movies that take place in the future where humans can travel from galaxy to galaxy in seconds, people can teleport, there are flying cars, computers have touch screens, cars run off electricity, someone has a cellphone, computer, GPS and internet all in one device, you can order pizza over the internet… wait a second… this is starting to sound like reality not science fiction.

Google has announced that it will be selecting only a handful of cities to test out it’s new ultra-high speed broadband networks that will deliver internet speeds of up to 100x times faster then your typical internet connection! What if Kansas City had this science fiction reality? Continue Reading…

Local Hot Spot: Blanc Burgers and Bottles
by Emily Baldwin on March 8th, 2010


A local favorite burger joint  has moved and we are so excited about their newest location on the country club plaza. A perfect spot for lunch or dinner Blanc Burger and Bottles can meet anyones appetite. Known for their gourmet burgers, every menu item is creative and delicious. My favorites include the bison burger and the au poivre burger. Not craving beef? try the delicious turkey burger. And for a vegetarian option, the portobello burger. If you haven’t branched out from the burgers I suggest definitnely trying the calamari fries and the butter lettuce salad. And for a different option on french fries opt for the sweet potato fries (served in a shopping cart). Their shakes use local dairy farm Shatto milk, and the strawberry is a must have. Blanc also features an extensive bottled beer menu. The atmosphere is lively with modern decor and with that comes an energetic ambience. Check out their catering options as well for events. Blanc is located on the Country Club Plaza and at Mission Farms in Leawood.

Fall Forward: Outerware
by Emily Baldwin on March 8th, 2010


While the majority of people are adjusting to the new spring fashion trends, I am scouring the markets and runways to make purchases for the next fall season. After spending a week in New York City here is a preview of new looks to come.
There was no shortage of outerwear to choose from as each collection had luxurious coats, vests, and heavy sweaters to bundle up in. Styles varied from puffers, caplets, and leather jacket, to military coats.

Model Behavior
by Kristen Coulson on March 5th, 2010


According to nymag.com:

More details have emerged in Naomi Campbell’s latest alleged assault against the help. Twenty-seven-year-old Miodrag Mejdina was hired to ferry Campbell from the Mandarin Oriental Hotel to a photo studio in Queens in a Cadillac Escalade (not a taxi as previously reported). He told cops yesterday that Campbell became furious, and just before they got to the Queensboro Bridge, slapped and hit him from the backseat, knocking his head against the steering wheel. When Mejdina pulled over to report his unruly client to a traffic cop, Campbell got out of the car and fled on foot. Continue Reading…
