Yoga breathing right now so I can slow my roll…because my hair hasn’t been this glossy and soft and full in forever! — and now I’m ready to make it rain over at Rahua. BREATHE, KAREN, BREATHE. So, friend. You’ve probably seen Rahua around, yeah?

Fall is a time to take feline fashion chances, which Tabs did so boldly today with his new Meow-velous Monarch Cat Corsage, because, as you know, true fashion mastery is all about the accessories. And the posing, of course… This morning Tabs field tested the corsage by running it through a battery of tests ranging from shrubbery ducking to potted plant stepping to side stretches and foliage concealment.
