    I actually am buying my fiance a gift out of TWOP's gift guide. The dude likes NCIS!

    I treat them the way I treat everything else in magazines. I ooh and aah over what I like, with no regard to others, and end up not buying anything.

    Also I love you, Simon Doonan. You can decorate my house anytime.

    To be fair, it WAS the gift guide from Time Out NY that alerted me to the existence of a "Cake or Death?" Eddy Izzard mug. So yeah.

    Ironically, I would love to find out what Simon Doonan would suggest for Christmas. He's fantastic, and I'd probably buy any number of horrible things if he recommended them.

    Just watched the final episode of The City - Whitney is so flat and passive, I can't believe she's the main character in a TV show.

    This girl will never wrinkle because she has no facial expression.

    Bust's gift guide this year was pretty good. I figured out what to get my dad from it. A record player that converts your vinyl into mp3s? That's perfect. And I had no idea we had the technology to do that.

    @Devi: This is why I'm thinking that its a continuous gift... because you know who will be converting all those records? Me. So that's an extra part. But then I get a gift cuz then I get to listen to all his super awesome underground new york 70s glam records, including crazy B-sides from MC5. I am excited.

    @spekkle: Me, too! But I think the interactive component helps, as does knowing that they weren't put together by the ad sales team rather than a thoughtful editor.

    So, ummm what is the correct pronunciation of Louboutin? One day I might be able to buy those $1500 boots I've been drooling over and I don't want to sound like an idiot at Neiman Marcus with my giant penny jar.

    I find that gifts guides are generally based on stereotypes that have nothing to do with the people in my life. My dad hates golf and gadgets and my mom hates cooking and beauty products. What now generic gift guides?

    That said, I do like the holiday book lists from NYT and WaPo.

    @Benevolent_Dictatrix (patently absurd): I've often wondered what it would be like to have a golfing dad – or to be one. 90 percent of crappy last-minute gifts are golf-related, it seems.

    Maybe if H&M wasn't so obsessed with opening stores in the hippest areas only they would probably do better in sales. I'm just sayin.. I live part of the year in Boise and people there would LOVE to have an H&M.

    Didn't Whitney already make a similar comment a while ago about LCs designs? Something like Well my stuff's going to be more high-end, or something like that? Hm. Love the catty undercutting; always a good look (not).

    That Dockers campaign is stupid.

    When I think of "manly men" the last thing that comes to mind are Dockers.

    Are they still popular in the States? I think they are the most unflattering pants.

    What is the correct way to pronounce Louboutin? Like the maestro says, I've heard it pronounced different ways.

    @wtfox?!: Yes, I've never known a man who wore Dockers, but wow are they popular with my sister's friends who are 40-something soccer moms.

    Frankly, after spending enough time in England, I can't take khaki pants seriously. Sounds too much like kaki pants, and nobody wants that.
