Re: Ungaro: Hmm. Does that mean at some point in time, I might actually be able to afford one of the dresses from Lindsay's collection? Because I liked four of them a lot, which probably means that I have zero taste. #lindsaylohanungaro
That Anthropologie is highly profitable does not surprise me. They carry the same made-in-a-faraway-sweatshop level of quality as Urban Outfitters(aka, very low quality), but at a much, much higher price point. Quite brilliant, really.
@NoelleBlue: I got a gorgeously overpriced set of glazed pottery measuring cups there that I adore. I practically opened my wallet and asked them to take out the amount they felt was fair. Hypnotized, I also signed up for their frequent shopper thingy, even though "frequent" and "Anthropologie" won't be mentioned in the same breath in my house very often. #lindsaylohanungaro
I'm starting to really feel bad for Lindsay Lohan. Her life is just unravelling slowly in such a painful way, I just want to giver her a hug and tell her it will be OK. It's bad enough to have one infantile and moronic parent, but having two? If only Drew Barrymore was her been-there-done that influential and wise big sister. #lindsaylohanungaro
I want to say something mean and snarky about Mr. Bourke, like Oh, he should really be going to jail for producing such ass-ugly handbags, but I won't because I know some people like them.
@kepster: I FUCKING LOVE THE BHV. They sell purse hardware. I still have these amazing brass findings like you wouldn't believe that belong on a satchel I will one day find the time to make. Crafts kept me sane in Paris, and that was all thanks to the BHV, where you can browse for hours without anyone bothering you. #lindsaylohanungaro
Betsey Johnson, please don't redesign your stores! The one in Soho has been the object of my sartorial fantasies since I was a teenager! It's the end of an era, I say; I'm shedding a tear.
I love shoes with a passion and have been known to buy expensive pairs solely for the artistry and craftsmanship. But these McQueen shoes not only don't appeal to me at all, they actually generate a visceral anger that I can't quite explain. I wonder if I am alone in my hostility? #ragtrade
Have any of you ever had those dreams where your body's suddenly bulbous? Your limbs are too big, pieces are becoming increasingly disproportionate ... scary as hell, basically.
That's what the McQueen/GaGa shoes remind me of. #ragtrade
@hortense: I'm a poor, so I've been doing the construction-paper-and-superglue version for a while. They're great unless you want to shower sexily. #lindsaylohanungaro

At ridiculous prices. But they are indeed adorable. #lindsaylohanungaro

Hmm, does the foot sit on top of a giant platform, or is the sole of your foot toward the bottom of the shoe, with most of the bulk on top?

@Mary McCarthyite: Okay, here is my guess....
The foot is positioned inside the bulb just like it would be in a normal heel. I assume it felt like walking in REALLY high platforms.

I miss those things.
If I felt okay buying rabbit fur, I'd make some. #lindsaylohanungaro
