Shop at LuLu Too
12.19.12
We are beyond grateful for LuLu Too in Eastside Costa Mesa, who are generously donating 20% of sales today and Thursday to Educating Jack & Milly. The fund is helping educate two bright and motivated Kenyans that I met in a rural village in Western Kenya three years ago. I promised to give them a college education, as it was their dream, but an impossible dream due to the expense. (They lived on less than a $1 a day.) Because of generous people in Orange County, Jack and Milly are well on their way to overcome poverty.
They are in their third year of a university education in Nairobi, Kenya, and I need to see that they make it to graduation. You can either shop at Lulu Too and pick up some great stocking stuffers for $20 or less, cozy scarves, socks, candles, bracelets, earrings and necklaces, or make a straight donation at Donate to Jack & Milly [url=http://pacific-creative.digital/about/jack-and-milly]http://pacific-creative.digital/about/jack-and-milly[/url].
Thank you in advance for making a difference in the lives of Jack and Milly and happy holidays. We take checks, Visa and MC.
Open 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday; 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday; 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Sunday.
Lulu Too is at 333 E. 17th Street (behind Pancakes R Us) in Costa Mesa.

Men Only
12.18.12
The Matador Alcove, a sophisticated, grown up version of the Little Rascal’s “He-Man Women Haters club,” but with better hair, décor and refreshments, is a respite for men who want to relax away from the ladies. The men’s only full service grooming salon in Costa Mesa also boasts a top shelf bar, and it’s owner, David Zimmerman just launched a new shoe line, Bull + Tassel, a classic tux slipper reimagined for the modern gentlemen.
The B + T slipper ($195.00) comes in a nautical inspired Skip (white with powder blue repp stripe and
embroidered white anchor), the fraternity styled Biff (navy with white repp stripe and red embroidered B + t logo) and
the country gentleman’s glen (grey, white and red glen plaid pattern). Bull + Tassel is sold exclusively at [url=http://www.bullandtassel.com]http://www.bullandtassel.com[/url] and at Matador Alcove in Costa Mesa. Open 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday.
333 E. 17th St., Suite 4 in Costa Mesa. 949.650.0015.
