DAVID BOWIE AND TILDA SWINTON : INTERCHANGEABLE?

  At first glance, this photo thoroughly confused me. It was captioned David Bowie and Tilda Swinton – but it looked like two strangers.  Turns out David and Tilda did a video together in 2013 called The Stars (Are Out Tonight) and David is dressed like Tilda’s character in the video, and vice-versa.  Yes, it Continue reading “DAVID BOWIE AND TILDA SWINTON : INTERCHANGEABLE?”

YOU CAN HAVE DAVID BOWIE’S STEREO- AMONG OTHER THINGS!

Another reason to love David Bowie: his artistic taste in collectibles! His collection of amazing Memphis furniture and objects is up for sale at Sotheby’s, along with his killer art collection. Apparently his wife Iman is not as fond of these whimsical and beautiful pieces as he was. Our personal favorite is this astonishing Italian Continue reading “YOU CAN HAVE DAVID BOWIE’S STEREO- AMONG OTHER THINGS!”

DAVID BOWIE: THANKS FOR THE MEMORIES

It’s so hard to swallow the fact that David Bowie is really gone. He’s been a fashion and music inspiration for decades. We loved his courageous choices and dissatisfaction with the mundane. And that HAIR! We discovered this photo of David in his first band, The Kon-rads, in 1963 – looks almost Teddy Boy. Already Continue reading “DAVID BOWIE: THANKS FOR THE MEMORIES”

DAVID BOWIE HAILS HIS OWN CABS

#davidbowie #janetcharlton All we know is, we can never get enough of David Bowie. He seems so reclusive and it’s always a treat to see him. He’s sold around 140 million records, but hasn’t performed live since 2006. Bowie, 65, just seems to live quietly with his wife Iman and their 12 year old daughter Continue reading “DAVID BOWIE HAILS HIS OWN CABS”

SLASH’S EXPERIENCE WITH DAVID BOWIE BRINGS BACK MEMORIES

Recently Slash of Guns N Roses talked about catching his mother naked with David Bowie. It brought back memories because his late mother Ola Hudson used to be a customer in the store called The Garment District that we owned on Sunset Strip in the early 70’s. Ola was a delightful and fashionable black woman Continue reading “SLASH’S EXPERIENCE WITH DAVID BOWIE BRINGS BACK MEMORIES”

CHANGES: DAVID BOWIE’S LITTLE GIRL IS GROWING UP

The family is very private, so we didn’t realize how fast David Bowie’s 9 year old daughter Alexandria has been growing up! It’s nice to see Lexi out in the West Village with her mom Iman (AKA Mrs David Jones.) Lexi has a beautiful model for a mother and a legendary rockstar for a dad Continue reading “CHANGES: DAVID BOWIE’S LITTLE GIRL IS GROWING UP”
