FROM PERKS
“Summer vibes.” Not the most definable phrase, but you know it when you see it. Take these short-sleeved camp collar button-ups from Tee Ink that come in vibrant colors and patterns, for example. They’re what you should be wearing when you’re living your best summer life. Skinny-dipping aside.
GO SEE CAL
Cal Mare just went and acquired itself its very first happy hour. It’s a daily, three-hour afternoon session involving pizzettas, crudo-of-the-day and $7 negronis, among other splendors. Things are starting to feel happier around here already.
BEEF IN THE NIGHT
The Bear and Star is a distinguished Los Olivos restaurant breeding its own Wagyu cattle. Tomorrow, chef John Cox joins Neal Fraser at Redbird to turn its ranch-raised meat into dishes like uni on smoked beef fat toast, Wagyu heart tartare and mincemeat donuts with marrow ice cream. Curious yet?
JEDIS WIDE SHUT
Sure, you could go watch Solo. Or you could hit the Ace and watch a burlesque show where scantily clad Wookies, droids and stormtroopers bump and grind in a hilarious parody of the series. Yeah, probably the latter.
GREEN ROOM
NYC’s Higher Standards is like the Malin & Goetz of getting high. And now, it’s coming to town, teaming up with local collective the Pottery on a summer pop-up highlighting the brand’s crystal accessories, cleaning products and heavy-duty glassware. Perfect for Father’s Day. Depending on the father.
FRED DAWN
Fred Segal is ready for its first semi-annual sale. And if you’re ready too, you’ll find 75% off apparel, shoes and accessories from Fred Segal Originals, as well as its men’s shop Hartel and the women-geared Collective. We see a pair of sweet, sweet pants in your future.
ELECTRIC FEEL
They’re completely electric, which means you won’t break a sweat on that commute to work. In non-work news: Ibiza, a new comedy from producers Will Ferrell and Adam McKay, is officially unofficially the funniest Netflix original movie to date. And speaking of Netflix, here’s where we grade what’s coming to and leaving the platform in June.
Hadley Tomicki lives in Los Angeles. He is probably going nowhere on the 10 Freeway this very second.
