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 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.
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.
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
You know what, Ed Hardy? Screw you. Why, you ask? Because a few years ago, I was doing a project that involved deriving inspiration from classic Sailor Jerry tattoos, which were absolutely awesome and cheeky in a way that none of your stuff even approaches.
And I was gonna buy a pair of limited edition pin-up girl sneakers.
BUT NOW I CAN'T.
Why? Because you've overexerted the classic tattoo aesthetic, and no one with half a brain can stand looking at it anymore.
@sympathyforthebasementcat: Actually, it's his signature scent. Available for the 2009 holiday season! They're in talks with KFed to be the head spritzer guy at the mall.
1 Timothy 2:9-12
"9 I also want women to dress modestly, with decency and propriety, not with braided hair or gold or pearls or expensive clothes, 10 but with good deeds, appropriate for women who profess to worship God.
11 A woman should learn in quietness and full submission. 12 I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man; she must be silent."
So if she wants to be "biblically correct" she should put some clothes on and shut up. What the hell is she supposed to be anyway?
@erinna: I haven't read it either, but like a good atheist, I know all the good bits.
Matthew 28:18 "And Jesus coming, spoke to them, saying: All power is given to me in heaven and in earth."
1 John 5:19 "the whole world is under control of the evil one."
As much as I find American Apparel ads annoying, I find the concept of arguing that a model "looks" younger than 16 kind of dubious. Does that mean that the model has to wait till she "looks" 18 to be in the ads?
@labratintraining: I agree. If you don't "look" 21 (even if you are), should you not be allowed to drink?
It's kind of ridiculous arguing something being inappropriate based not on age, but on how old they LOOK.
And who decides they look to young? I saw the ad, and she wasn't plastered with makeup. I wasn't aware not plastered with make up = young.

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.
