Spitfire Girl Number Collection Featured on XOVAIN
We are so happy XOVAIN shared their love of our perfume with their fan base. Check it out!
This No 3 Roller on Perfume is an ultra-fragrant bouquet of lilac, jasmine and gardenia. It definitely packs a lot of scent into one swipe, making this one an excellent bargain option. The three flowers combined are sweet in and of themselves, but the perfume isn't overbearingly so—a lovely blend that's perfect for summer.The Number Collection is now available in 1oz Spray Bottles

Spitfire Girl and the author of Dinosaurs Smoking Weed
Dinosaurs Smoking Weed is a book near and dear to our hearts here at the Spitfire Girl headquarters. Firstly, its one of our best sellers, and secondly, and perhaps most importantly, it's written by one of our own! That's right - Dinosaurs Smoking Weed author, Shahrzad Ghadjar, used to work at one of our Spitfire Girl locations!
Now that she's a successful entrepreneur, we had to sneak into Shahr's busy schedule to talk about how Dinosaurs Smoking Weed came about. We put on some Lana Del Rey and let Shahr explain: "I love dinosaurs and I've always loved dinosaurs and I was drawing one day and it was a nice afternoon and I drew a T-Rex smoking a joint- and I thought it was really funny."
Shahr talked about how she always draws in black and white and how her style just naturally really lent itself to a coloring book, and as Shahr put it "people love to color when they're stoned!"
As well as being a fun activity Shahr also wanted Dinosaurs Smoking Weed to be educational. The book contains Dinosaurs from all different continents and time periods and has true facts about each Dinosaur pictured. "It's not just all about getting high, it's about learning."
We can appreciate that Shahr loves to learn and we just have to attribute some of her success to what she learned working for Spitfire Girl!
"Before working at the shop I thought I would do film, and when I was working at the store ... I saw Kristin and Jason - all they do is draw and sell things and I thought, wow, I could do that too. Then Kristin also gave me the opportunity to draw and design for the store, and that blew my mind."
We at Spitfire Girl love coloring (stoned or otherwise) and Dinosaurs Smoking Weed provides the perfect place for us to get our coloring on! In fact, we're about to get to coloring this Ornithomimus smoking a blunt right now!
We have a very special limited number of signed and numbered copies of Dinosaurs Smoking Weed available for purchase! The first five orders for Dinosaurs Smoking Weed placed online will be signed! Woohoo!
Happy coloring!Love,Spitfire Girl -

Spitfire Girl and Auntie Em's !
We at Spitfire Girl love all things cupcake and delicious so breakfasting out of the office to meet with Auntie Em's Kitchenette founder, author, punk-rocker, and all around bad ass chick, Theresa Wahl, was a treat!
Theresa Wahl is the author of our new favorite cookbook, The Auntie Em's Cookbook, A Musician's Guide to Breakfast & Brunch. In it, she expertly pairs tasty home inspired recipes with a colorful collection of tunes for the complete cooking experience.Delectable recipes for sweet things like Orange Ciabatta French Toast are paired with equally pleasing songs like California Paradise by The Runaways.
We sat down with Terri in her new Auntie Em's location in downtown Los Angeles to talk a little bit about the inspiration behind her new book.When asked how she picked out songs for each recipe, Terri explained that she was trying to create a mood."The jarring and canning section is all blues - like you're sitting on your porch in the South canning, making blueberry preserves and listening to blues music - it was just a feeling."
We love Theresa and we love the Shaker Lemon Pie recipe (among others!) We cant wait to blast Siouxsie and the Banshees while we're whipping up this luscious lemon dessert!
The Auntie Em's Cookbook, The Musicians Guide to Breakfast & Brunch is available now online and at our retail locations!
Happy Cooking (and singing!)Love,Spitfire Girl
