Is it just me, or does Marisa's breasts and the diamond bra look photoshopped onto her body? #marisamiller

@berlitzfrench: Maybe. I do know that Marisa's breasts are implants. #marisamiller

@thatblackgirl: So, since they're implants, they must be photoshopped? #marisamiller

@BuffySummers: Photoshopped is used to create an illusion. So are implants. #marisamiller

@thatblackgirl: Well, Photoshop is used to create an "illusion". Implants are used to create breasts that are made out of silicone instead of flesh. There's no reason physical breasts would look "photoshopped on" ust because they have implants inside. #marisamiller

As an Anthropology student, I resent the spelling of that shop name.

But my two American friends are always banging on about how good it is, and they both dress far better than I do, so I'll probably check it out at some point... #marisamiller

On what planet do these people live, that it's reasonable to ask why Anna Wintour doesn't just throw away her garments after she's worn them once?

These are the same sort of people who pay homeless guys to beat the shit out each other, aren't they. #marisamiller

I love Ann Taylor - the pieces are usually basic enough that I can rock them for a variety of occasions, with the right accessories. Sure, they're "edge-free", but I add my own edge with jewelry, shoes and bags. #marisamiller

"No, I’m not interested in a Michelle Obama-inspired, stretch satin, office-party ‘mistletoe moment’ dress, thank you very little."

We can't all wear "Frankenhooker" boots to work Cintra! Some of us like collecting cardigans and wool skirts--preferably ones that cost less than $100, thanks.

Also, I love the Kelly reference. #marisamiller

Yes they are boat shoes. And undoubtedly ridiculously expensive. But I like 'em. Because I grew up in New England. Nice work Mark. #marisamiller

"I certainly wouldn't want to do a plus-size line, as I have no problem with women of any size wearing my clothes."

Was she misquoted? That sentence is so awkward it becomes contradictory. #ragtrade

I think their style is much closer to that of Bebe, actually. I couldn't think of a better match...but I don't anyone is going to be stretching their creative muscles. #kimkardashianclothingline

I'm rather surprised Pam Anderson is doing a swimsuit line (especially since Baywatch went off the air like 40 years ago), and not a line of itsy bitsy teeny weeny white shorts and see-through white tops, which is her calling card. She could call it B*Muse.

I work a couple of doors down from a Bebe store. Every time I pass by, I think, "I can picture the Kardashian sisters wearing all of this." So, this makes perfect sense to me. Good luck to them. #kimkardashianclothingline

Um, Dodai, aren't you the woman who frequently waxes poetic about the goodies you see in the J.Crew catalog? Or the Delia's catalog? Why are you so much more ambivalent about Anthropologie?

"Since the prices are so high, if you didn't shop at Anthropologie, you could probably afford to fly somewhere and buy some "unique" stuff yourself."
Um, no. I can't afford to travel abroad. And I probably can't afford that bed. But I might indulge in the shams or the duvet. It's as close as I'm going to get to Paris for a long time to come. So what if part of the Anthro experience is escapist? I can't travel to France for a fortnight. But a few minutes in Anthro on my lunch break is a nice little break from my reality. I realize that's what I'm paying Keith and his cronies for, and I'm fine with it.

"Or just go to your local flea market and give a local dealer your business."
Well, I do that too. Why does it have to be either/or?

When I was in college, me and my friends somehow stumbled across an anthropologie catalog and proceeded to lust and dream about all of the clothes.

Yes, the prices seemed expensive and ludicrous, but we were all poor and assumed that because it was beautiful and expensive it must be worth it.

When I graduated and moved to a new city, there happened to be an anthropologie store in the mall. I sorta flipped out and squealed to all my friends that I was going to go to anthropologie and get a swanky dress.

When I actually got in the store... I wasn't disappointed per se, I actually saw it as pretty nifty. I ended up buying a few nice things, but I found that I don't really wear them as often as I do my other staples from cheaper stores.

I have trouble hating on this show, because there's still a little poor girl in me who likes this store and wishes she were rich enough to shop there.
