Wait, is "Escada, the struggling fashion house" the same Escada that makes perfumes? I had no idea they were in trouble. I hope they stay afloat, Escada is the only perfume I wear, I have about 5 different bottles of it at home, it smells heavenly.
The Marc Jacobs resort collection is seriously the shit.
I am so heading to eLuxury. Wasn't it the first "luxury" brand web retailer? I remember it being around before Net-A-Porter, I think. Kind of sad. But if it means I can get discounted stuff, also kind of awesome.
@Penny: call me a horrible vulture but the one good thing about our current economic disaster is all the discounts. also I guess you can call me cheap.
I feel Oprah and all, 'cause I haven't been happy with my own weight since, oh, around the time I hit puberty. But it always has bothered me that one of the richest, most successful and most influential women in the world seems to feel the need to PUBLICLY berate herself about her weight. Every time I read the inevitable "Oprah gained 40 lbs again and ZOMG she is SOOO bummed about it," I have to wish that she could try, at least in public, to take this sort of thing a little more in stride. She's Oprah, for God's sake! If someone is rude enough to ask her about an apparent weight gain, she can't just say, "Bish plz, I've had a hectic life lately and shit happens"?
Hey, Oprah? Can we talk? Look. You're an extremely successful woman. You have scads of money and iconic status. You're in your fifties. At this point, I don't think anyone should expect you to have the metabolism of a 23-year-old.
It seems like every. single. time you gain or lose 15 lbs, you're ALL OVER IT in the media. It's not just the tabloids that do it--I can't remember how many times I saw you on the cover of some magazine, gleefully holding up a pair of jeans much bigger than the ones you were pictured wearing, and some glorious and gaudy blurb in a clever font blared "OPRAH'S WEIGHT LOSS! HOW SHE DID IT!!11"
Please sit back and chill. I don't care how much you weigh. In fact, I don't want to know. Yeah, you're not one of those whippet-waisted young things, but dude, you don't look unhealthy. And if you WERE having some kind of weight-related health problem, I'm sure you have a crack staff of highly-paid medical professionals at your beck and call who will tend to you most solicitously.
