Re: Ungaro: Hmm. Does that mean at some point in time, I might actually be able to afford one of the dresses from Lindsay's collection? Because I liked four of them a lot, which probably means that I have zero taste. #lindsaylohanungaro
That Anthropologie is highly profitable does not surprise me. They carry the same made-in-a-faraway-sweatshop level of quality as Urban Outfitters(aka, very low quality), but at a much, much higher price point. Quite brilliant, really.
@NoelleBlue: I got a gorgeously overpriced set of glazed pottery measuring cups there that I adore. I practically opened my wallet and asked them to take out the amount they felt was fair. Hypnotized, I also signed up for their frequent shopper thingy, even though "frequent" and "Anthropologie" won't be mentioned in the same breath in my house very often. #lindsaylohanungaro
I want to say something mean and snarky about Mr. Bourke, like Oh, he should really be going to jail for producing such ass-ugly handbags, but I won't because I know some people like them.
Betsey Johnson, please don't redesign your stores! The one in Soho has been the object of my sartorial fantasies since I was a teenager! It's the end of an era, I say; I'm shedding a tear.
Have any of you ever had those dreams where your body's suddenly bulbous? Your limbs are too big, pieces are becoming increasingly disproportionate ... scary as hell, basically.
That's what the McQueen/GaGa shoes remind me of. #ragtrade
@hortense: I'm a poor, so I've been doing the construction-paper-and-superglue version for a while. They're great unless you want to shower sexily. #lindsaylohanungaro
Her music? Enh. She herself? I think she's a blast. (For some reason I might be biased because she is my age and she, too, went to a Catholic high school...a bigger, better, more prestigious one than mine, to boot, but somehow I thought that just made her more interesting.)
How much credit does she get for the videos? For every awesome video, there are shitty ones...I guess now I know that Leighton Meester's video (she's gorgeous, but that video is...bluh) not simply something a producer/director/writer/whatever MADE her do, giving her a limited influence over it?
I mean, realistically, I'm guessing artists have creative control over their videos and want them to sync up with their songs....but my question is how much credit or blame does the actual artist get for the video, beyond starring in it and writing the song to go with it? #ladygagabadromancevideo
@nex0s: Between the Bowie references and her penchant for costumed villiany, I think I can safely say that Lady Gaga is a member of the Guild of Calamitous Intent, though I don't think she's Dr. Mrs. The Monarch. .... if she was, she'd be wearing that butterfly hat that was a Snap Judgment earlier today. #ladygagabadromancevideo
Apparently, the subtext is that fancy vodka makes you wear a colander fashioned of chandelier parts as a hat, while doing a dance that I call The Scratching Kitty.
I plan to do this in front of my Grandma at Thanksgiving.
@BettyCrocker: Yeah, new life goal, being one of her backup dancers, I'd get PAID to do that dance. What if you get to keep the costumes? Imagine the possibilities. #ladygagabadromancevideo
That is complete absolute visual majesty (and the tune ain't bad either). I have loved this woman from the first several bars of Poker Face, and this new one is amazing. Ms Germanotta is fearless in both the visual and musical fields. We should also give credit to collaborator and producer RedOne (Nadir Khayat), the Moroccan/Swedish songwriter/producer/synthesizer maniac who for the past year has been injecting European technopop into the States in the form of all Gaga's hits as well key ones by Sean Kingston and Cascada. The Gaga/RedOne collaboration is almost scary. Who would have thought that 2009 would be a good year for dance music? #ladygagabadromancevideo
In photo 15, she looks like Courtney Love.
Also, re: photo 32:If anyone told me two weeks ago that I'd one day be incapable of distinguishing between Stefani Germanotta and Gwen Stefani, I'd have told them to put down the crack pipe. And yet, here it is. #ladygagabadromancevideo

Hmm, does the foot sit on top of a giant platform, or is the sole of your foot toward the bottom of the shoe, with most of the bulk on top?

@Mary McCarthyite: Okay, here is my guess....
The foot is positioned inside the bulb just like it would be in a normal heel. I assume it felt like walking in REALLY high platforms.
