i love Nick Snider <3 i truly do.. . and you should watch this video and take in the educational information about a serious issue.. .but i cant help but point out that he has to be wearing sunglasses to read directly off the page, if not a screen, googling it as he records.. .especially since the exact same information is posted at the end, verbatim. The parts where you can tell its just him speaking from the heart, warms u all over like your Hermes cashmere scarf.. .please dont tell Chad. thx.

if eHarmony used models for their advertisements.. .

they'd probably look something like this. But Chad White obviously doesn't need to be on eHarmony.. because we've been married for 2 yrs now. thnx for all of the china... and some of you should really learn how to stick to a wedding registry.

he talks about the cute pup in the pic, Bam Bam, in this backstage vid. makes me wanna marry him all over again.

THIS JUST IN: unknown man on cover, hot so no matter.

not that i have the slightest clue who Josh Beech is.. but i'm just thankful that i wont see Andre J on the cover of my Vogue Hommes.. .

UPDATE:
Josh Beech is the frontman of the Brit rockband Snish. in Google we trust.

fall into the Gap.. .omg i remember that campaign? i'm old

I dont have a lot to say about the collaboration with the Gap for the designer collections, in stores on April 15th, I just know that all girls should have Philip Lim's white shirt and Philip Crangi's accessories. The Crang is a sexy beast.

Here are some actual details about the CFDA funded endeavor from Fashion Week Daily:

Lim's collaboration resulted in four pieces: a tie-neck shirt, a bell-sleeve ruched shirt, and a layered sleeve top, all at $78. "I've always been a fan of the classics and I love everything iconic," said Lim. "My motto is when in doubt, just choose good style. Gap, to me, is synonymous with that."

Band of Outsiders designer Scott Sternberg created a patchwork tunic for $88. "Growing up, Gap was this depot of great jeans, great sweaters; just the best basics that were out there. I was trying to create something that felt very easy but fresh and modern," said Sternberg.

Threeasfour's Gabi, Adi and Ange, meanwhile, designed a camisole for $78 and a cutaway dress for $88.

In men's wear, Bastian created an epaulet and a Western shirt for men, both at $78. "I'm so proud to be able to do this with Gap," he said. "To be the first men's designer to do a shirt for men, as well as being able to design my first piece ever for women, is amazing!"

Crangi, meanwhile, whose task was to create jewelry for the project, devised items such as a white or black wide resin cuff for $45. "It's a real clean slate," he said. "I can go in there and really state the aesthetic of Gap jewelry which is exciting."

So they've gone and done it.. betrayal of a slap to the face, dagger to the heart, knock-off Gucci bag for Christmas proportions.
ABC's Cashmere Mafia was officially CANCELED on March 13th. They don't even have the courtesy to release the short first (and only) season on DVD. Well don't you worry about me ABC, all seven episodes are on my iPod to be viewed whenever i see fit!

“One thing,” she says. “I have in my office—what you call in America? Something to weigh?”

A scale?

“A scale. So people always say that I weigh my staff, and it is totally wrong. All my girls are very skinny and very chic and very beautiful. And if they are not beautiful, well, then they are very charming. So people always say that I weigh them, but no. I don’t weigh my girls.”

my knight in shining armani.. .

so bloggers and gossip magazines alike are reporting on this story, and publicists are denying it.. just like theyve denied every pregnancy of the past 10 hollywood babies.. so we're gonna just say that this story is real.
Katie Holmes is "rumored" to design a line for Armani, starting with a children's line for spring/summer 2009, moving upto womenswear by 2010.
It has also been reported that Mr. Armani has asked Katie to be on his arm for the Costume Institute Gala in May, where she will obviously be wearing Armani Couture and looking enviously flawless.. .bitch. love u though. <3

fool me once.. but ure a bastard for trying twice..

You can breathe, i'm not talking about Glenda.. there's still no Britney on the cover of Harper's. Jim Nelson however, editor-in-chief of GQ Magazine.. he should be ashamed of himself. Adriana Lima is featured on this years annual Love Sex & Madness issue.. as she was last year. And that interview will probably go down as the most awkward interview ive ever read. i wasnt even in the room when it occured and i could see the interviewer looking for an emergency exit. it sucked though because the exit was totally behind Lima, no way to be coy about that. But i do get the token.. you put the hottest virgin who works in one of the hottest industries on ur cover.. ure bound to sell some issues.

no one gets between me and my Calvins.. .

Eva Mendes has been said to replace Natalia Vodianova in the upcoming Calvin Klein Underwear campaigns.
Tom Murry, president and COO of Calvin Klein Inc. told WWD:
"She really embodies the essence of the Calvin Klein brand and we look forward to seeing that carried through in the creative. We are trying to get across that these new products are for fuller busted, shapelier kinds of women and when we looked at the talent, Eva was right."
This is a big "Did you just call me fat?" moment heard worldwide

all good in the hood

Here's a little preview from a spread in the Spring/Summer08 issue of V Man Magazine [hurry the fuck up V Man, seriously.. i miss u.. why havent u called?]
The styling, Stevie Westgarth.. the photography, Mel Bles.. the model, Aaron Romulo & Guy.. the composition, the colours, whatever, all ferocious (fuh-roh-shuhs: see savagely fierce)
In this issue's At Home With.., photog Andrew Burmeister chronicles a day, from bed, to life, to bed again, with male model Ambrose Olsen. The piss off? you know Ambrose doesn't wear all that to bed.. or around his house.. what happened to reality photography?

no word on the cover boy for Issue 10 just yet.

the devil incarnate.. .

So i was just living through my lazy Sunday, when i came across an editorial for french Vogue circa 07/07. Now i know that this is old news given the date, add an additional 3yrs for the fact that it's fashion.. and the fact that this is a blog.. ok it's ancient. King Tut, the Titanic sank, This blog. i get it. But hey, sometimes posts like to kick it old school so deal with it. In the spread, Snejana Onopka portrays American Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour.. When you look at the spread, you may think that Carine is complimenting her American counterpart, seeing as how Snejana as Anna looks a million and three times better than Anna herself.. but just when u think it's a tribute to high style.. u notice how art immitates life. Notice that the same pair of Blahniks are worn throughout the spread. If you know me at all, you know how it pisses me off that Wintour has fashion at her manicured finger tips and all she wears is beige Manolos, day in and out. The Devil Wears Prada.. a couple of times a year, she truly wears Blahniks like no other.

do me daily Christopher Bailey.. .

The glitterati are fleating.. .to help Teen Vogue celebrate The Beat, Burberry's newest fragrence. Pretty young things, including Julia Restoin-Roitfeld and Gossip Girl's Chace Crawford and Taylor Momsen, filled the venue - clad in Burberry, naturally.. - and posed for the Papz while host, editor-in-chief Amy Astley and co-host Daisy Lowe worked the crowd.
A fashionably late Bailey explained the premise behind the brand's new beat:
"Every generation of kids comes around and makes that heritage new again—makes it play to their beat."

Clockwise from top left:The Beat ad featuring Agyness Deyn, Bailey & Astley hug it out, Daisy Lowe and Julia Restoin-Roitfeld.

the hills have eyes [filled with dollar signs].. .

The staying power for most celebrity clothing lines is about the same time period for laxatives.. around models.. during fashion week.. in paris. Dilute that fact with mediocore media success and pseudo-celebrity status? Disastrous, n'est pas?
We've already murmurred, scoffed and guffawed about Lauren Conrad's "collection".. never to her face though.. and if she's reading this [because she seems like the type of person that would Google herself]:
We totally loved what u did recently at LA Fashion Week! Absolutely love it!! Is there a waiting list? kiss kiss.. .

But.. to the industry's shock and horror.. Heidi Montag-slash-ShePratt has launched her own clothing line appropriately dubbed Heidiwood. I get that it's a play on words.. but is it also a play on lifestyle? Because there's absolutely nothing Hollywood about the $10-$60 range that her line is retailing for.. unless we're talking about lattes in Hollywood..
Lovely little Miss Whitney Port also has a clothing line in the works; a 17 piece collection by the name of Eve & A. (Pssst... are we notsupposed to think of the clothing line ADAM + EVE??)

then.. .

. ..now

So i'm guessing that the only intern who's now getting paid to do what she experienced during her internship [because that is what this was about.. .remember?] is my favourite uber-intern, Emily Weiss, who's now a Fashion Assistant at W Magazine.

what was originally a preposterous rumour..
"LeBron James on the cover of Vogue with Gisele? That's madness!"
Madness? Maybe. But it's also true. The two appear side by side on the cover of Vogue's annual Shape Issue.
Although none of the Top Models have really done anything memorable within the fashion industry.. is it possible that Ms Wintour took a cue from Tyra circa America's Next Top Model: Cycle 1 when NFL star Clinton Portis vogued with the "Top Models"?
