Confession: I've bought a Miley-designed shirt from Wal-Mart. Which leads me to the bigger confession: I shop at Wal-Mart. Regularly. Whew, feels good to get that one out there. #mileycyrus
@Everything MidnightBikeRide does is a balloon.: When I went there the other night looking for left over Halloween candy some of her stuff was pretty cute. I think Wal-Mart is just trying to get on Target's game with their cheapie designer stuff.
That being said I went on Nov 1st at 7pm and the Halloween candy had ALREADY been replaced by X-mas candy. WTF.
If they want me to get so fat that I have to buy a new wardrobe they need to give me some discount candy.

@Lizard in the Wires now with even MORE metal in the face!: Target has been really disappointing in their celeb/designer lines lately. The McQueen one was lame and the Anna Sui was sooooo expensive. I still have some stuff from the Proenza Schouler and Behnaz Sarafpour collections (several years old now) that I wear all the time, but the newer stuff has been MAJOR LAMESAUCE. I'm holding out hope for the Rodarte line. #mileycyrus
@katie.scarlett.o'hara: I haven't liked much of their new stuff either. But I thought maybe it was meant to appeal to more of a high school fashionista crowd? That was the only thing I could come up with.
But Mizrahi always brings it (well, he generally brings it). #mileycyrus
@Lizard in the Wires now with even MORE metal in the face!: Yeah, definitely. That whole Gossip Girl thing was so stupid. There was maybe one dress I liked, but the rest just looked too trendy, and it was all like $50-60! Way too much for Target.
Mizrahi is totally gone! I think his last collection was earlier this year? I really miss his stuff. Target is usually crap when it comes to shoes, but his were actually great.
I think Mossimo or whatever the Target brand is has been stepping it up lately, so we have one small thing to be thankful for, lol. #mileycyrus
The Lady Gaga clothing line will debut with the "Poker Face," an ingenious face-defense sheath made of lace available in avant-red, paparazzi-purple, and disco-stick-dandelion. Crown sold separately. #mileycyrus
@suck_it_monkeys: SO much word. And all my other brand name clothes, even mall store brand names like Express. I even once got a Badgley Mischka dress at TJM. LOVE. #ragtrade
@girlscoutcookie is back from hiatus: I hold an annual celebration on the date I found a purple silk Philosophy di Alberta Ferretti dress at Filene's for $112. I get the dress out, twirl it around in front of my mirror, sing it Happy Birthday, and then we have cake.
So far I've worn it outside the house, um, once. #mileycyrus
" />That KOL line is pretty standard fashion for most rock boys already. I'm pretty sure the BF already has a flannel shirt and some cowboy style shirts. On the other hand, Caleb Followill is hot.
@Master.And.Everyone: I know that he's a fashion designer (and a braggart, apparently), but I have no idea what he looks like. I'm pretty sure that Karl Lagerfeld is the only designer I'd recognize on the street, and that's only because of Jezebel. :) #ragtrade
@Kivrin: Who could miss the fabulosity of Karl Lagerfeld? To quote Margaret Cho, he fans the flames of his faggotry "like he's some kind of Spanish Lady or something." #mileycyrus
OMG I remember Bata shoes. I wore them in primary school. I went to a catholic school where the uniform was bottle green dress with 2 brown stripes and we had to wear brown socks with plain brown leather lace-ups. Fashionable, it was not. #mileycyrus
@cuteasabutton: My religious single-sex high school education has limited, even to this day, my ability to wear brown leather shoes. I sympathise. #mileycyrus
I think Madmen is to some degree diluting their brand by partnering with Banana Republic. I like the clothes style too, but it's a little too Disney or Harry Potter Warner Bros marketing for me. Buy products which allow you to live in your fictional fantasy world! In the NYT piece they also refer to a Madmen inspired NYC trip. I love Madmen. The world is presents, however, is meant to be criticized, not emulated. Do the racist and misogynist attitudes come all inclusive in this travel package?

Ladies, BR is owned by Gap Inc, and you know how Gap feels about their higher-end brands and ladies of the curvaceous persuasion. They'd NEVER do Joan dresses-- they can't even get curvy jeans right, why would they attempt dresses that curve in multiple places?
@Tiger Lourdes: Zombie Hunter: You're so lucky. I have all three and only can do ON jeans-- which last about two-three months before my thighs of destruction kill them.
@Ipomoea is a joyful girl: It's funny; I consider myself "curvy" and Banana Republic fits me much better than Gap. I think that the tailoring helps me out and the flimsy nature of the Gap only highlights any "flaws" rather than highlighting assets.
The Chanel video was fascinating. I'd definitely watch a documentary about the formation of a dress from beginning to end (formation of fabric to runway).
Someone needs to give Mr. Timberlake and Charles W. Givenchy or whoever is in charge over there a lesson on adverbs. It's play intensely. No wonder kids nowadays all write like Carrie Prejean.
