forget summer blockbusters. our escapism calls transporting apothecary, kicking some asanas, and stealing stila.
 stila
steal.
we received a tip on an exclusive stila warehouse sale. you
thought buying denim on hangers was cool; how 'bout pinky palettes and their
famously bright pigmented vintage pans for 50 to 80% off? apparently, the limit
per person is $600. that's a whole lot of lipstick. july 21, 8a.m. to 4 p.m.
11128 gault street. north hollywood. www.stilacosmetics.com
 mercury rising.
long before the sephora on every street corner, there was a little
DC boutique called bluemercury spa. and it carried
the most well-edited selection of cult beauty must-haves, from skinceuticals
to creed. now open in century city, pop in for a post-sun fusion
facial with kenny and cruise the barneys-worthy displays of l'artisan,
ren, and aussie sensation aesop. 10250 santa monica boulevard.
century city. 310.553.4440.

 blonde ambition.
madonna was rocking the goldilocks at live earth. and the best-of-the-best material girl brought in colorist steven tapp of the argyle salon & spa to smudge and highlight. guess she opted against the deadly combo of extra-strength sun-in and lemon juice. 8358 sunset boulevard. west hollywood. 310.623.9000.

 yas! yas! yas!
if "om" seems a little too mystic-chic, then get your yoga-hybrid fix with the decidedly buff-cool nike spokesthlete kimberly fowler at yas (yoga and spinning center). her fast-paced "yoga for athletes" classes definitely kick a few asanas. exercise reward? maybe not samadhi, but abbot-kinney's shopping is a pretty close second to enlightenment. 1101 abbot kinney boulevard. venice. 877.YAS.YOGA.
