Goodbye Etta…
January 21, 2012 by 16stone
1938 – 2012
Funny…about 2 weeks ago I was in my room playing “I’d rather go blind” over and over. I sang along every time for almost a full hour. Something about Etta’s sultry voice could make you feel her pain through the music. It was the blues… it was crying woman. I felt every shred of sorrow she encompassed through her voice. Etta, you will never be forgotten.
Rest… at last.
From Wikipedia: The Life of Etta James

Vintage Magazines: Hue Cover Girls
January 7, 2012 by Sonya Denise
As obviously noted, I have a slight obsession with vintage magazines. Hue is such a rare magazine that there’s not much info out there about it. Copies of this magazine are very scarce as well. A quick search on ebay will reveal zero results. If something is not readily available on ebay, then you know it’s a rare find. Despite all that, I’ve scoured the end of the internet to bring you a collection of rare Hue cover girls all in one place. This actually took quite a bit of time and research. Feel free to share these wonderful photos, but link to this post. This took months of searching. Enjoy!
“Hue Magazine was a publication of Johnson Publishing Company. It was a pocket entertainment news magazine published monthly durnig the 1950′s and feature black celebrities and newsmakers. Unlike Jet Magazine, Hue had a back cover and often used it to highlight aspiring actresses and models. The magazine also features a pin-up gallery with lots of photos of pretty girls. “

Vintage Paco Rabanne
December 26, 2011 by 16stone
A real live Paco Rabanne dress on etsy. I think my heart skipped a beat. This seller is lucky to have found such a rare treasure. This iconic dress is nearly impossible to find. I came across this while searching for a shiny silver dress for New Years Eve.
Resurrection Vintage set a record on Christie’s selling a similar Paco dress for a stunning $24,000. Paco Rabanne used Donyale Luna to model his designs in the 1960′s. Check out the photos below of Donyale working it in Paco’s futuristic fashions.
