    Say what you want about Joe Corre-- I love him. I have faith he'll pick someone cool to take the reins but that still kinda sucks.

    i would LOVE if betsey johnson did a line for people with normal clothing budgets! i do think she will have to be careful, though, that it doesn't wind up looking like something out of a lisa frank binder. love what she does, but it works because it's quality.

    @amoeba formerly hippichx: I would wear clothes that looked like something out of a Lisa Frank binder EVERY DAY if I had them. I actually have a Lisa Frank binder that I still use all the time, from the 90's. With unicorns. It's awesome.

    @HannahBethD: I think Clinique could easily be considered a luxury brand, in that it's not a drugstore brand and you need to go to a department store or Sephora to pick it up (and it's much more expensive, by comparison).

    @hortense: But fashion? I guess makeup could be considered in that cluster, but a distinction is usually made between clothing and accessories and cosmetics.

    And yeah, I could see it being technically considered a luxury brand, but that's some crazy hair splitting!

    I doubt she cares, since she's so edgy and all, but Megan Fox's makeup is seriously fucked up in that picture. I hate when people get pictures of me with nasty eyeliner and bleeding lipstick!

    Oh I'm actually sort of happy about that Abercrombie news because I've always really liked the fit of their jeans but haven't bought them for years because they've become so ridiculously expensive.

    Abercrombie could probably save 9 million dollars per year simply by stopping their regular routine of pumping 23 billion gallons of cologne through their vents on a daily basis.

    I was so prepared to be on Twiggy's side. I too have "long-since consigned [Woody Allen] to the Academy of the Overrateed" .

    But, really Twiggy....
    It IS obnoxious, pretentious, and dick-ish for one to purposefully try to make another person feel intellectually inferior.
    But, cruel?
    That probably sucked and all, but she could have just blown it off and then opened a book. Or blown it off and been content without a favorite philosopher.
    AS IF everyone can name their fav. philosopher and, of those who can do so, how many really know what the hell they're talking about?!

    At least she wasn't interviewed by Steven Colbert or Sasha Baren-Coen. Now that could have been brutal. Esp. the later.

    But but...! If Lara Stone lost weight, then she would just be a model, not a "curvy model". And the designers wouldn't have any "curvy models" to parade on their runways as an example of how open-minded they are!

    Why are people so angry at Lara Stone for (unsurprisingly, given the stress of her profession) having a skewed body image? How about directing some ire at ElleUK, whose writer breathlessly and unironically reported these comments and then expressed her approval of how "well" this new "routine" is working for her?
