MELROSE AVE: Contrary to what you might think by looking at this week's Street Scenes subjects, not all Angelenos step out in the morning wearing head-to-toe neon—but, judging by how happy they both look, we kind of think the city would be a better place if everyone followed their lead. Tomorrow from 7pm-9pm, stylists Joe Lupo and Jesse Garza will be helping colorphobes take that first small step at Decades Two, where they'll be giving one-on-one color consultations using the shop's vintage collection as a teaching tool. They'll also be signing copies of their new book, Life in Color, which kind of sounds like a take on '80s classic Color Me Beautiful but with American Apparel and Rihanna references. See the duo in action in the Barnes & Noble video above. [Racked Inbox]

ROBERTSON BLVD: Last week, when news broke of Beach Bunny Swimwear's impending arrival on Robertson Blvd, we predicted that the boutique would go into the space next to Lisa Kline—if for no other reason than that a window full of lace-trimmed bikinis would sit nicely alongside the mudflap girls on Kline's awning. Today, Blackburn and Sweetzer confirmed that this is, in fact, the case, and that the new shop will be opening during the very un-beachy month of November (they're aiming for the 15th, presumably for the mid-winter getaway set).
