    LOL @ being dressed by the Adam Lippes intern, Jenna. Since you explicitly did *not* linger on what exactly they put you in, we're officially dying to know now.

    Why is Tom Ford depressed? He got to design Roger Federer's wedding tuxedo. I think - even speaking as someone who's had experience with the clinical kind - that job would snap me out of the depression with the quickness.

    Who's got YouTubes of the AbFab girls in the M&S ads?

    "Commotious." I'm feeling that.
    Kendra must have gone to the Derek Zoolander Center for Kids Who Can't Read Gud and Who Want to Learn to Do Other Stuff Gud Too. #heidiklum

    It is true that there was a lot of retouching going on before it could be done digitally. There's a great photo in a Hurrell book that shows what he did with Joan Crawford, who I never before realized had a ton of freckles. (Apparently it took six hours to de-freckle and de-wrinkle someone by hand).

    Someone has the pictures here: [www.seraphicpress.com] #ragtrade

    Well, Mr. Mondino, don't you worry, because I'm pretty sure that the French are going to pay just as much attention to these "retouched" labels as they do to those warnings that tell you to avoid eating between meals that are pasted onto commercials for Haribo candies. #ragtrade

    Rumor has it that John Galliano is designing and decorating this year's Christmas tree for London's Claridge's hotel.

    I firmly believe that after 10 months of pregnancy, 30+ hours of labor and having a 9 pound baby pulled from her body with forceps, my mother decided to name me whatever the lady next to her named her child. Thus, I'm a Jennifer. #namegame

    Mom wanted to name me Gabriella but my dad said I'd get picked on and called Gabby for the rest of my life so they named me Jennifer. I wish I could have had a say in that because I hated being the 3rd Jennifer in a room. I changed my name to Jezebel about 13 years ago.

    No, seriously, Jezebel Dawn Blessing is now my legal name. No one calls me "Jennifer (add personal moniker here)" or forgets my name any longer.

    Being Jezebel is much more fun. =)

    Haha Oh yes I know they're the same as far as meaning,origin, etc. But it would still be nice.
    Plus I've found that people who spell it with the Y are actually called "Kathryn", whereas people who are "Katherine" usually go as Katie, Kate, etc. #namegame

    @Slim: what is with the Catherine/Katharine/Kathryn spellings anyway? In different history books and novels (I blame Alison Weir and Philippa Gregory and many hours on airplanes), I've seen Henry VIII's wives' names spelled all kinds of different ways, like there's Catherine of Aragon, but then there's also Kathryn Howard. What's up with that? Any history buffs care to give me some info? Does it date back to the days of Chaucer when people played fast and loose with spelling, including their own names?

    Also, I feel, given the names of women of Gen X and Y, we have no choice but to dedicate K to the Katharines, Kathryns, Kates and Katys of our lives. #namegame

    @That_little_attention_whore: Yes! You're dead on! I nominate all those names also. As far as the different spellings of Kathryn though, I don't know. I know it's of Greek origin and it means "pure" (haha). My experience/guess is that is varies according to culture/nationality. I think Katherines/Catherines are more English and French while Kathryn/Katie/Kate is more Celtic.

    But then there's also the derivatives of the name (i.e. Katerina, Katrina, Catherina, etc) #namegame

    Funny, I have had this very conversation with a girlfriend...In depth! The conclusion? All Jennifer's are ho's! I know that is cruel, but in my experience all the Jennifer's I have encountered have always been slutty and or trouble makers. Like the office co-worker that always has an opinion or just plain has to make things difficult, the know it all. Or like the girl that just so happened to have dated three guys which you have dated! That is not to say that I have never met a nice Jennifer. When that happens I just find myself over analyzing this nice Jennifer insistently searching for any signs that she must have it in her somewhere....somewhere! Yes, I know, lot's of thought has gone in to girls named Jennifer. It's just that there are so many of them! So when I saw this story I thought aha!

    I'm a Jennifer, but everybody (friends, family, teachers, co-workers, etc.) has called me Jenny since middle school. When I hear "Jennifer", I don't even look up. For me, Jennifer has such an '80s (think Jennifers Beals and Grey) connotation, and doesn't fit me at all.

    My mother is from Colombia, and she wanted to name me something that doesn't have a Spanish counterpart (unlike, say, Andrea,) so that her side of the family would be forced to pronounce the English version. Weird, huh? #namegame

    It's funny, when I read these comments I see the "I was almost a..." comment. My names were set in stone pre-conception: Elizabeth for a girl, Richard Joseph for a boy. Thank god I'm a girl. My name may sound super Irish, but at least my old relatives aren't asking me when I'm going to change over to "Dick" *shudder*
