Wear Else!
‘The’ place to shop
A
fter a visit to one of the Wear Else! new and consignment stores – in Powell or West Knoxville – you just may find yourself asking: “Why pay retail?” and determine never to do it again. Both of the stores are filled with likenew consignment merchandise and a wealth of new things. As store owner Kim Cook is fond of saying: “If you wear it, we have it.” If you’re looking for the latest and greatest in spring fashion, whether it’s clothing, shoes, handbags, jewelry, sunglasses or many other items, Wear Else! is the place to go. There are plenty of names you’ll recognize: shoes by Jimmy Choo, Manolo Blahnik, Dolce and Gabbana and other famous names; handbags by Louis Vuitton, Fendi, Coach, Dooney and Bourke, Vera Bradley and lots of other well-known designers. The store offers clothing and accessories for almost any occasion for women, men and children.
For the wedding and formal events in the months ahead, both Wear Else! locations have rack after rack of brand new formals and wedding dresses, bridesmaids’ gowns and gorgeous dresses for the mother of the bride. There are shoes and jewelry to match many of the gowns. In addition, there are tiny outfits for the ring bearer and flower girl, ring bearer pillows and flower girl baskets and even champagne flutes. Men can also be outfitted here for those very special occasions. Wear Else! has brand new tuxedos in the latest styles. Cook says it costs less to buy tuxedos at Wear Else! than to lease them elsewhere. The West Knoxville store is at 7509 Northshore Drive in the Rocky Hill Center. The phone number is 691-8494. The Powell store is at 7550 Brickyard Road, where the phone number is 9479277. Hours at both stores are 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Thursday and 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Friday and Saturday.

The name tells it all
at Sequoyah Dental Arts
T
he patients of Dr. Pablo Foncea will attest to the fact that the improvements he makes to their smiles amount to true works of art. Dr. Foncea is quick to add that is the very goal of his practice. “What we provide is artistic dentistry with a personal touch. We listen to our patients and answer all of their questions. We make them comfortable with their surroundings, their treatment and their fi nished look.” And those images on the walls of the reception area at Sequoyah Dental Arts? The walls that look like “miles of smiles?” Those are real people. They are all patients of Dr. Foncea who have had their looks transformed by beautiful smiles. Some have had complete rehabilitation with crowns, veneers and implants, others
have had veneers and some whitening, still others have new custom dentures. Looking at the photographs, the dentures are so real looking and so artistically created that it is impossible to determine which of the patients are wearing dentures and which have all of their natural teeth. “Creating beautiful smiles in the most artistic way possible and maintaining those smiles in a healthy and attractive manner for a lifetime is our goal,” Dr. Foncea says. To schedule your appointment with Dr. Foncea at Sequoyah Dental Arts, call 3127695 or go to the website: www.sdasmile. com. Offices are located at 2719 Kingston Pike, just west of Concord Street. New patients will receive $100 off the cost of a comprehensive exam.

Jewelry essentials for every budget Every woman knows there are some basics that have to be in her closet: a little black dress, a pencil skirt, a great pair of jeans and a classic purse. With the right building blocks, you can put together an outfit that’s stylish, feminine and timeless, without a lot of fuss. The same idea should apply to your jewelry collection. When you have the essential pieces, you’ll be prepared for any occasion, whether you need to be subtle or want to turn some heads. Cristina Ehrlich, celebrity stylist and Pandora Jewelry ambassador, outlines six can’t-live-without-them pieces that you should have on hand.
1.
A statement ring
create the look you want. “I love to layer silver bangles with black leather bracelets,” suggests Ehrlich.
6.
A bracelet you love
A great watch has been a jewelry staple for some
Building on an old tradition, contemporary charm bracelets allow the wearer to create a personalized and unique piece of jewelry, tailored to their own preferences and taste. The Pandora collection includes classic charm bracelets in sterling silver, 14-karat gold or two-tone, as well as more modern options such as the double-braided leather bracelet, all of which can be customized with a selection of hundreds of charms and clips. “You can change the charms on your bracelet to suit your mood or the occasion,” Ehrlich points out. “Any event or milestone in your life can be the occasion for adding a charm to your collection.”
time, but with the prominence of cell phones, many women have mistakenly tucked their watches away in the jewelry box. Opt for a more delicate piece that looks like a bracelet, or if it suits your style, go for a bigger, menswear-inspired watch. Ehrlich points out that some watch designers allow the wearer to switch out watch faces, bezels and bands to create a completely customizable look. No matter which you prefer, choose a classic style that can be worn with any outfit.
When it comes to buying your essential jewelry pieces, look for those made from genuine, quality materials such as sterling silver, 14-karat gold, and precious and semi-precious stones, which will retain their value and beauty for years. The key to choosing each piece in your collection is to keep in mind your wardrobe and favorite colors so that you will have a variety of accessories to wear for any occasion and any outfit. And of course, always choose something that celebrates your individual style. –ARA
4.
Chain necklaces
“A simple chain in sterling silver, oxidized silver or 14-karat gold is a classic piece that you will be able to reinvent again and again,” Ehrlich says. Choose a long and a short chain to give you more options. Layer them together for a modern look, or choose to wear one with a beautiful pendant, clip or charm.
5.
A watch
One jewelry trend that has lasted throughout many seasons is a cocktail ring that makes a statement. “Floral motifs and precious gemstones set in gold or sterling silver are classic choices,” Ehrlich says. She also points out that you can experiment with different kinds of stones, such as bright orange carnelian or freshwater pearls, which are available in every color from creamy white to champagne or peacock blue. For a classic look stick to black onyx or spinel, which go with everything.
2.
Earrings of various lengths
This is a three-in-one essential: You should have studs, dangling earrings and hoops. “Studs are flattering on everyone,” Ehrlich says. “They brighten the face and can easily be worn from day to night.” Although stud earrings can be worn each day, every woman needs something dangly and eye-catching for a night out or to dress up an everyday outfit. Choose a color that complements most of your existing wardrobe so you can wear them often, such as black onyx with diamond accents. And every woman should own a pair of hoop earrings in either sterling silver or 14-karat gold. “For a twist on classic hoops, choose interchangeable earrings that can be customized with long dangles or short drop pendants to create a different look for every day of the week,” Ehrlich adds.
3.
Bangles
Having a fun set of bangles is the key to dressing up any outfit for an evening. Ehrlich advises choosing a simple style in sterling silver for a polished look, or bangles with colorful accents for a bit more playfulness. Layer your bangles with other bracelets to

‘Sophistication and warmth’ at Lattanzi
By Jake Mabe NEW YORK – Nestled comfortably into two brownstones along Restaurant Row in Midtown Manhattan is a quaint, charming Italian restaurant that is a perfect place to eat before taking in a Broadway play. We discovered Lattanzi quite by accident while looking for a restaurant last year before a show at Radio City Music Hall. What a fi nd! The atmosphere is intimate, the food is excellent and, for Manhattan, the prices are reasonable. The service is outstanding. Its website says Lattanzi offers “sophistication and warmth.” And that’s a perfect way to say it. I was there again in late February,
having made reservations after a midday matinee. Despite the Saturday night supper rush before the evening shows began, we ordered and were served within five minutes. I relished my ravioli con funghi (with wild porcini mushrooms) and a glass of the house pinot noir. I never order dessert, but I couldn’t resist the crème brulee. The restaurant serves both classic Italian and Roman-Jewish cuisine. It’s been in business, at the same spot, for 27 years. The Lattanzi family traces the restaurant’s history back to Erminia Lattanzi, who raised a big family in Rome in the postwar years, creating delicious family recipes in the process, before immigrating to Brooklyn in

1964. The family opened its fi rst restaurant on the Upper East Side in 1979. The master chef and Erminia’s son Paolo has worked in kitchens and as an assistant or head chef in several restaurants throughout the New York metro area. “I roam the city to take in all the senses… the sights and sounds, but mostly the smells… which translate into taste,” Paolo says on the website. “We then improvise in the kitchen, combining the best possible
ingredients with compositions of herbs and various spices to mimic what I have picked up from the outside, taking care to use Italian cuisine as the basis and measure of everything throughout the process.” If you’re feeling Italian and musical and fi nd yourself in Midtown Manhattan at suppertime, head to the historic brownstones on West 46th Street between 8th and 9th avenues. Eccellente! For more info on Lattanzi, visit http://lattanzinyc.com.

On designated evenings, often as part of the popular First Friday in the District event, Plum Gallery will host an “Artists Circle,” which will feature
artists seated at a table talking among themselves about their art, trading suggestions and ideas. The public will be able to listen and also ask questions. There will be wine to sip, cheese to nibble on and plenty to see and hear – and, of course, purchase – at the festive events. Mallonee says she came up with the idea while listening to a couple of the gallery’s artists. “One of our artists was having a problem with a painting and asked another artist to

This season is all about diversity and is sprinkled with texture, lots of sparkle and unexpected accessories. One of the hottest trends of the season is the hi-lo dress style which is short in the front and long in the back. This dress features the best of both worlds with a shorter front, allowing a peek at shapely legs, and the long back, adding an elegant touch. Mermaid dresses are also very popular this season.

TUDIO ARTS offers a full palette of summer activities for dancers
amps, upper level workshops and classes in classical ballet, modern and musical theatre, flamenco and character will fi ll the summer months at STUDIO ARTS for Dancers, according to artistic director Lisa Hall McKee. “This is a great time for dancers to enroll in project-based camps and even try different styles of dance and for new students to discover whether dance is something they want to continue during the school year,” McKee says. In “Red Riding Hood…A Ballet Fairytale,” scheduled July 16-20, new and experienced dancers ages 6-11 will learn choreography,
perform ballet mime and make their own props, headpieces and backdrop for their studio performance. “This is our young dancers’ favorite camp,” Mckee says. “They learn so much about what ballet is as a performance art, and they have a great time.” A musical camp, June 25-29, will teach students ages 8-15 music and choreography from popular musical theatre shows. Students will also paint their own backdrop. The students are presented the script on the fi rst day of camp, and the production takes to the stage on the fi nal day. For beginning intermediate
through advanced dancers, STUDIO ARTS will host a two week “Guest Artist Intensive” featuring master guest teachers, including Ellen Werksman, Sergei Chtyrkov, Joulia Moisseeva and others. The classes in contemporary and classical ballet, modern, lyrical, musical theatre, pilates, character and flamenco, pointe and variations will be open to experienced dancers ages 11 through adult. Dancers may sign
up for either one or two weeks, and all dancers will be placed in appropriate levels on the fi rst day. Three weeks of classes for beginning through advanced ballet, including preschool, classical and modern, will be offered July 2-20. For dates, times and costs, call STUDIO ARTS for Dancers at 539-2475. The studio is located just off Northshore Drive in West Knoxville.

at Twisted Scissors
ric Patterson is back from a recent trip to Las Vegas full of enthusiasm for a new line of hair color products now available at the West Knoxville salon he owns with partner, Elisabetta Proietto. The salon has long partnered with the Redken line of hair products, for which Eric is a teacher and facilitator, traveling across the country to help promote the products and train stylists in their use. Patterson says the new line of Redken Chromatic hair colors, introduced at the Las Vegas event, “is the largest product launch in Redken’s history. The company spent $5 million on promoting this new line.” Because of their association with Redken, Twisted Scissors was able to get the new product two months in advance of anyone else, and Patterson says, “it is truly remarkable. We love it and our clients love it.” The color line uses an oil delivery system, which Patterson says provides better results than the usual
ammonia method of delivery and lessens damage to the hair. “The hair and scalp feel better and the condition of the hair is so much better. We have had great results with it.” Another benefit is the lack of ammonia smell, which many people find objectionable and which can be troubling to those with certain health issues. There’s still more excitement ahead for the Twisted Scissors team. Several stylists will be going to Atlanta next month to take a cutting and styling course from Redken’s global artistic director, Chris Baran. “We’ll come back with the hottest new trends for spring and summer,” Patterson says. Twisted Scissors is located at 4928 Homberg Drive, Suite A-5, in Bearden. Hours are noon to 5 p.m. on Monday, 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Tuesday through Friday, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday. Availability varies by stylist. Info: 588-2311.

olor, color and more color will defi ne fashion for the spring and summer months for both men and women, according to the experts at M. S. McClellan & Co. Menswear buyer and manager Dan Kocks says there’s a new, softer shade of navy appearing in men’s fashion. “In addition to all the bright colors of spring and summer, we’re seeing this new navy in suits, ties and just about everything .” Kocks adds that men’s clothing is continuing its trend to heritage and outdoor brands. “These are brands that have been around for a time and continue to turn out beautiful products that will last. When the economy tightens up, that’s what people want, and they like things that work for the weekend, but can also work well during the week.” Kocks says it’s important to note o that ote men’s jackets and ties “have become ome a little slimmer, making what is in a lot of closets obsolete. You have to be careful areful or you will be looking like yesterday’s day’s news.” More shoppers are looking for “Made in the USA” items, Kocks notes. “This is something we’re very aware of. We are making a point of continuing to add US brands, and even Tennessee brands.” Women’s buyer Betsy Foster says just about any bright color is popular for spring and summer, particularly “sunshine colors.” Her most popular item right now, though, is red jeans. “We just can’t keep them in.” Women’s pants are slimmer this h his season, but the biggest trend of all l is ll dresses and skirts. “Dresses are hot hot as
a fi recracker. Manufacturers are fi nally making the right kind of dresses. And if you fi nd a sleeveless dress you love, but you don’t want to show your arms, we have lots of little cardigans that coordinate perfectly.” Foster says the new shade of navy is popular in women’s lines, too. “And to answer that age-old question of what color shoes are appropriate with navy, Foster says the answer is black. “Black shoes go with all shades of navy.” M. S. McClellan is located at 5614 Kingston Pike in Melrose Place shopping center. Store hours are 9:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday, and 9:30 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Thursday. Info: 584-3492.
