I couldn't fit into women's clothing until the age of maybe 13. It was awful. Now Stella McCartney is reversing the problem for me. BACK TO KID'S CLOTHES PLZ?? #nicolerichieclothingline
I go to fashion forums, and people are fawning over J. Crew a little too much. And apparently the free Michelle Obama advertisements made the company offer very little sales/coupons.
It's decent quality, but overpriced, in my opinion. #ragtrade
@lilyHaze: J. Crew online always has stuff on sale, and they constantly are flooding my inbox with free shipping offers, etc. If you like an (admittedly overpriced) item, just wait two months. Everything ends up on sale. I haven't noticed any decline in that kind of discounting following the Michelle Obama phenomenom. #nicolerichieclothingline
Oh Ed Hardy designer, you're the classiest! I can't wait 'til it all blows up in your face, catches on fire then is encircled by women riding pink tigers.
I saw (500) Days of Summer this weekend, and did not realize until I saw the InStyle wedding issue at the store yesterday that Christina Hendricks is marrying the guy who played McKenzie in the movie. So in my mind, I'm picturing the "Are you a lesbian?" guy with Joan Holloway. Even though I know that isn't right. But good for them.
Don't take fashion seriously? Because insanely awesome and carefully cultivated street fashion just happens.
My Jenna crush, solidified!
She has her own paper cups, because "I'm so into monogramming. I'm doing it on everything right now."
Gena*, let me introduce you to reusable cups. They can be monogrammed too!!
I have to just say, as a corporate retail bitch, I am so not looking forward to this Q4. You will find me curled in the corner with a bottle of wine, sucking my thumb by October 31st. Promise.
I just got home from watching Malcolm X, which has beautiful period costumes (40s-60s) to this! As a woman who loves and collects vintage, this is like a night in heaven for me!
She and her sister were forewomen at the Leslie Fay factories on 7th Avenue right up through the 70s when they retired.
Those women were hardcore. They would wake up before everybody, make breakfast and lunches for the whole house, clean the house, make the beds, get everybody off to work and school, then they'd go to work. After work, they'd make dinner, clean up, do the random other housework, washing, ironing, look after the kids and husbands, etc etc
My grandma's salary provided for my dad and uncle's private school and for 'pocket money' for herself. Grandma saved her pocket money and bought a house in the country all on her own. Seriously. Go grandma!
