Love it. This is my type of “aspirational” fashion blog, even though what I really look best in are ’50s/early ’60s silhouettes and full skirts.

Thanks to that photo of Anjelica Houston floating around Tumblr, I finally found a style blog for me. Don’t get me wrong, I like a lot of fashion blogs regardless of how they dress because I can appreciate people who...

Alaïa Trash-Talks Anna Wintour, Karl Lagerfeld →
Four for you, Alaia! Not that it’s news that KL is a caricature, but it’s nice to see someone else in the fashion world say it.
Also, the immortal image of Cher Horowitz on the ground outside of that phone booth, whining, “This is an Alaia!!!”

So many feelings right now. Can’t really articulate enough to write in the Paper Journal. There would be a lot of caps and underlining, I tell you what. Giddy weekend. Ignoring pile of clothes on the bed. So much to do and no motivation to do it. And dreading work… why didn’t I do… many things?

Teri Hatcher, are you kidding me? Don’t pretend like you don’t know how much gossip there is about the “Desperate Housewives” set. Maybe you don’t read any of it, but don’t pretend that you don’t know it exists.

I continue to be thankful that the #1 song from my birth year is not something Embarrassing Eighties. Although I will never NOT be skeeved out by Prince/the bathtub in the accompanying video.
maura:
1983: The Police - “Every Breath You Take” 1984: Prince - “When Doves Cry” 1985: Wham! - “Careless Whisper” 1986: Patti LaBelle ft. Michael McDonald - “On My Own” 1987: Atlantic Starr - “Always”...

listening to le tigre
For the first time EVAR (the s/t album). (is that embarrassing around these parts? perhaps.) “Hot Topic” - precedent for “Losing My Edge,” no? With the shout-outs at the end? Obviously it was not the first song to employ this device, but nonetheless.
Why am I listening to Le Tigre in the first place? Because the ex-MC wrote something about it on facebook. He is not a...

so, moneyball
I am not a Baseball Person, but damn it if that trailer didn’t pique my interest. I should note that I am a big dork about trailers.
Maybe some of you are Baseball People and/or have read the book. I always thought that it covered an era in the early ’90s, but nope, here’s the trailer and people are texting and talking about the internet. I’m a bit confused.

Lauryn Hill Sings “Doo Wop (That Thing!)” on Jimmy... →
Yeah yeah, old news by now, BUT - I still adore this song. I’m looking it as a precedent to “Crazy in Love”, in a way (mostly because of the horns, I think). I like her rapping on the Fallon performance better; it’s a faster flow.
