Catfish are just gross. Even fake ones

You must admit, this is quite a departure for me. Every magazine this month is showing the Anita Pallenberg/furry vest/Iamthewalrus look and it must be rubbing off. Or maybe it is all that Nicole Ritchie US magazine overload. Personally, I have never cared for, or tried this hippie look even when I went to an actual Dead show where I almost starved to death because I refused to eat anything that was cooked on a car engine in the parking lot. Today, what really happened was I was trying to double my Van Cleef and Arpels Alhambra necklace and it got stuck on my head and I liked it. I was also trying to decide if I should ditch the Renee Denby skirt but I got a compliment on it from a girl wearing these Mui Mui olive patent flats, so I guess it looked OK. I am just hoping I don't have a clover shaped tan line on my forehead tomorrow

Shiny Things

Can I just say I was on this trend late 2007, which is when I ordered mine from American Apparel? Now everyone is showing Liquid Leggings for fall, including: Members Only, Kensie, Look from London, Rag and Bone and even Express, who probably just brought out some back stock from the 80's. I have to warn you, while extremely sassy, they are a bitch to get on and if you get the truly rubber ones, they are seriously high maintenance, requiring a silicone rub on the outside and baby power on the in. Worth it? I think so.

Thinking about these

Everyone knows the best boot selection is in stores right now. If you wait even another month your faves will be sold out and you will just be pissed that you even tried to wait for a sale that is not ever coming. I should know, this happens to me almost every year. Frye is the oldest continually operating shoes company in the US and if you are into that patriotism thing this may mean a lot. To me, this means some baggage, as I remember Frye as being these short, harnessy, squared toed uglyness Jon Cannon and his ilk wore in grade school. However, while researching some amazing ACNE pumps, I caught these Frye boots on the http://www.revolveclothing.com/ website and may just have to buy them. They are $398, which is not cheap, but I bet they wear like the dickens. I am a little concerned about the strap stuff, I usually don't like my boots encumbered by frippery and it makes them extra caz. Maybe they can just be my jeans boots and I'll keep looking for something sleek for skirts

Never the Razor

Does not the best scene in Legally Blonde take place at Neptune's Beauty Nook? I, too, rely on mani/pedi as a mood enhancer as well as the Bend and Snap for cheering everyone else up.



Paul & Joe silk kimono top, unbelieveably hard to sit down in corset belt, black city shorts, larger then usual September Glamour magazine

Fooling No One

I only wish I had this totally Antwerp 6 ensemble these sheep are wearing. White muslin draped smock with an awesome distressed black canvas cowl and black net rear peplum. Unbelievably chic!!

Is this from the Country French collection?

I understood the appeal of Vera Bradley bags for about one minute. A certain Pucci esque pattern caught my eye and suddenly I owned one of those things that I have used all of never. While the washability is enticing, most of the patterns just seem awfully country goose clothing to me. Imagine when this doppelganger caught my eye at www.hideouslyexpensivepurses.com (not a real website, but could be!) Even knowing this $1300 Gucci bag is made of tapestry not washable apron fabric does not convince me it didn't hop the bus from Ft. Wayne to Italy in search of a better life
