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.

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."

“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.”

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"?

Chai, of Tse and Marc by Marc legacy, is said to be very busy this year, planning to devote his time to, not only the capsule collection for Target, but also a men's, resort and pre-fall line.

That's all well and great for Richard.. but seriously.. where's my damn latte?

Because nothing says "I love you, darling." like a $39 dry-clean only rose.

who are you wearing?.. .and why?

I'm not exactly sure where the thought to wear this Missoni vest with the shapless blue frock came from.. but be sure to never visit that dark corner in your mind ever again Alexandra.
Alexandra von Furstenberg and Angie Harmon pose BFF style for the papz at the LACMA gala this past Saturday.
Dear Alexandra,
Congrats on your new furniture store on Melrose, darling. But if you're going to keep the von Furstenberg name, even though you divorced her son long ago, to further your career, might i suggest slapping on a Diane von Furstenberg frock every now and again lest this dress make another appearance. It may burn when you put it on at first, but you'll look infinitely better. Big kiss.

homme improvement.. .

My favourite playboy.. i mean.. heir to a jewelry fortune and Paper Magazine blogger Luigi Tadini smiles for the Papz outside of the Samantha Thavasa store opening in NYC. His trade mark scarf has been accompanied by what looks to be a faux fur vest.. and although i appreciate the sartorial audacity, some things are just better left to MK.
In the next photo, Tadini - looking far more dapper - poses with Amanda Hearst while hosting the Riverkeeper Benefit.

A vast improvement indeed.

au revoir, anderson.. .

Former Chloe designer Paolo Melim Anderson is no longer going to be giving the final bow post runways shows. So far it appears that it was an amicable break up.. they'll still meet up for Starbucks, air-kiss and tell the other that they look fab.
Chloe's new designer, Hannah MacGibbon, was a member of the Chloe design team when Pheobe Philo, prior to maternal instinct, was Creative Director of the brand. Hopefully what she'll take away from Paolo's 3 seasons at the house, is that the Chloe woman has evolved past eyelet baby dolls and Paddingtons.

foreshadowing via spring/summer ad campaigns.. .

"i want your babies"
"then stop crushing them.."

Sartorial genius Tom Ford tells Fantastic Man that he plans to have a baby within the year. [if he had to have the stretch marks, he could probably do without.. .]

Says the designer:

“I’m going to have a kid in 2008. Richard (Buckley, Ford’s longtime partner) knows I’ve wanted this for a long time. He’s just resisted it. He would be a spectacular father. It’s going to give his life new meaning.

“It will be biologically mine. I mean, I’m a lot younger. If things follow their natural order, [Richard will] probably leave the planet ahead of me, and I can’t not have had something I’ve wanted forever.

“I’ve always wanted kids. I don’t want to get to be 75-years-old and just have made a lot of dresses, done some houses.”

You can also find Tom lettind down his emaculately groomed chest hair on the cover of Russian GQ this month.

to the chicest corners of the street.. .

pretty (chic) young things.. .

At 10 months old.. when i took my very first steps..i received critical acclaim from my mother, praise and applause surrounded me, the Papz' bulbs were flashing so bright i had to put on my killer $3 electric blue plastic shades [which would be so street chic right about now]. Oh how times have changed.
In the year 2008, a kiss on the forehead and a choco-chip cookie just dont cut it. Now, for wobbling a foot and a half, you get to sit front row and oggle the models at Viktor & Rolf, while people 18+ years your senior settle for Googling them.
Life is hard for toddlers.. preschool starts.. the pressure to be popular..everyone hating on how fab ur lunch box is.. weight issues.. it never ends. But i'm fairly certain that when you're strolling in fashionably late, interupting carpet time, wearing an Agyness Deyn tee by Deer Dana and metallic jazz shoes.. .you're pretty much king of the jungle[-gym]. And then there's middle school.. the reading gets super intense; focusing on National Geographics.. because it's your social responsibility to know where your fur came from. And the prize for an A on ur paper? Just a wee something from Chanel. Nothing major.
Alas... high school.. dont bother investing in anything other than La Mer and thigh firming cream. At 14.. you're over the hill.

sum like it previously owned.. .

ok? ooooor.. .



Now we all know which one logic and hidden Visa statements tell us to like.. .but we all know which we actually like.. dont we?

Isla Fisher - in a gorgeous Matthew Williamson coat - was snapped by the Papz while on set for her movie Confessions of a Shopaholic, where she plays notorious shopaholic Rebecca "Becky" Bloomwood. Former Elite Model Krysten Ritter is set to play Suze, Becky's best, while Hugh Dancy will be playing the role of her beau.
I love looking forward to things that dont happen for generations to come, dont you?
The movie, based on Sophie Kinsella's best-seller by the same title, is slotted for a February '09 release.

The Way We Wore.. .: the same etro dress

So I'm not quite certain what Kimberly Stewart was actually attempting here. it's really audacious enough that she should even don the same Etro dress which Kate Bosworth received such critical acclaim for four months prior to this day in February at the Mulberry store opening in London.

Who owned it?
.. .probably the one that owned it first.

The Way We Wore.. .: Christian Dior f/w07

Again, LuLiu as fashion savvy publisher Mia Mason, power-lunching with her Mafia. Sure Irina Lazareanu wore it first, and the mannequin is disqualified due to unattainable levels of perfection, but Lucy, via Mia, owns it. If I were wearing that outfit at lunch.. .I wouldnt be wearing it at lunch. You'd be able to see it under the clear plastic body-bib, but that's about it.
Mannequin image made possible by a well-styled window and http://www.modelizing.blogspot.com/. The way the mannequin is caught in her own reflection; so dope. She doesn't even have a face and she's still F for Fierce.

SJP -in Dolce & Gabbana- vogues for Annie Leibovitz in a photoshoot for an upcoming issue of Vogue, promoting/building the ever present anticipation of the Sex and the City Movie.


So the question remains: What will i max my Visa on whilst creating an outfit to don for SJP/SATC?
caveat:[and by max, i mean pay off visa, smile, then max]

so i'm guessing this poncho is made out of cat hair.. .

because it has far too many lives for my tastes.


The first offense comes from 2006's The Devil Wears Prada. We see a poncho in passing as Nigel takes pitty on poor Andy Sachs. Although she hasn't the slightest clue about fashion, even the oblivious knows that this poncho is all wrong when she scolds, "a poncho?"


The second offense comes from.. -sorry, just shuttered..- a Payless commercial. I was at home one blissful spring day in 2007, hopefully getting ready for something fabulous.. but probably not.. when this interrupted my [hopefully far more entertaining] programming. It's quicker than the blink of an eye; but I'd recognize that monstrosity anywhere.


The third, and dear gawd I hope final, sighting of this hideous poncho came by way of ABC's Cashmere Mafia. This is really the only problem I've ever had with Mia Mason's wardrobe.

So obviously legendary Sex and the City stylist Patricia Field can be blamed for the first and third misshaps. So does that mean some Payless stylist saw Pat use the poncho and figured it must be chic, and decided to use it? Or does Pat do freelance ghost styling for discount retailers?

STOP! in the name of fashion

lol yea.. pseudo-lame title.. shh..

And no word of a lie, honest to blog as Tyra plays in the background right now, the V.I.P Party Boys, the first gay hip hop crew, are sitting on her couch, and member Johnny is wearing the T-Shirt version of this Traffic sign motif fashion, as I type.
So I'm thinking of running out to the street and getting a "NO U-TURN" sign for an avant-garde brooch. Thoughts?

Natalie Portman does Elle April 2008

Not a whole lot going on with this April cover. A bored expression accompanied by a lackluster, high school hipster "hands in skinnies" pose.
Saving graces?: Natalie Portman is always gorgeous, and she's wearing a Balenciaga s/s08 jacket with her skinnies and undone hair avec a wristful of jewels. The only way to truly do casual if we're being honest with ourselves.

i bought it.. i have the recepit.. .

Okay. Classic childhood gamebook game: Find the similarity between these two pictures.. .other than the fact that they're both of Lucy Liu. Sharpen your skills.
On the left, LuLiu chats up Jessica Alba at the Lanvin f/w08 runway show. On the right, LuLiu as Mia Mason on ABC's Cashmere Mafia.

The similarity? A pair of gorgeous earrings stolen from the set! I can't point the finger.. If i had to play a character with a wardrobe half as fabulous as Mia Masons, I'd be strolling through the lobby with a rolling rack daily.

make yourself at home.. .

This could be the beginning of a beautiful friendship. Welcome to 'Sum Like It Haute'. Of course I wanted to just call it SOME.. .but that was taken by a girl who hasn't logged in since the dawn of time.. . But I digress.. .
For now this is merely a blog of my daily fashion musings and all of those little things that rattle around inside your head that you feel other people should not only hear, but agree with. But I promise you this: NO Brit Brit. No matter how "Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous" she is.. . The only way she'll land on these pages is if she stumbles naked, drunk, and airbrushed on the cover of Harper's Bazaar.. .again (fool me once Glenda.. fool me once). There's just no niche for her here, for on this blog Rachel Zoe is more influental, Cashmere Mafia is reality TV, and Visa doesn't wake me up with "do you think we don't intend to get our money?!" phone calls. Honest to blog.
