I love this museum! I was lucky enough to get a tour with the decorative arts curator (who's a friend's aunt) a couple of years ago and just fell in love. They put together some really interesting and thought provoking exhibitions.
There are too many fashion "reality" TV shows. The one about Elle internships was the most unrealistic crap I've ever seen. I wouldn't mind if they made a TV show about fashion and pulled out the tired Devil Wears Prada refs, but putting it in "reality" shows just encourages the stereotypes.
It'd be like making a finance reality TV show (plz god no), and modeling it after "wall street".
Okay, I have to admit it, Gwyneth Paltrow is growing on me. I am sort of bizarrely charmed that she has the audacity to charge 100 pounds for a studded tank top. It's a joke, right?
"there's no indication why the line should start at £100." Well, aside from the fact that Gwyneth would never put her name to anything that might be considered "cheap".
@CurtCole: He'll be sure to start off the launch of his apparel line by filling everyone in on how many women he's slept with. You know, to cancel out the fact that he has a fashion line. He'll also sing a song about how much he loves women, and the various reasons why.
@GirlFailer: Every so often, I hear of a celebrity starting a fashion line, and I really want to quit being a fashion designer. The Kenny Chesney item certainly makes me want to quit. Right now.
How complicated can it possibly be to design leggings? The fit doesn't change much, and then all there is to do is strategically rip and metallicize them. Voila! Lindsay's "pants."
At a certain frequency of repetition: I love you for this perfect description of why the words "squirrel" and "ceiling" fascinate me.

In other news: I'm having a hard time reading anything on this page because there's this huge Joan Rivers roast ad, and she looks younger than the Pantsless One.
Haute couture (French for "high sewing" or "high dressmaking"; pronounced [oːt kutyʁ]) refers to the creation of exclusive custom-fitted clothing. Haute couture is made to order for a specific customer, and it is usually made from high-quality, expensive fabric and sewn with extreme attention to detail and finish, often using time-consuming, hand-executed techniques.
Used to describe a liquid, I think the word "couture" loses ALL meaning.
I hope the fragrance bubble bursts soon. Who BUYS these scents anyway to keep the industry thinking it should be churning them out??
