Posts for March 2006

smack March 31, 2006 2:25 pm >> This image of Lily Donaldson from Vogue Italia's March 2006 beauty supplement just hits you upside the head and makes you want to stare.  It's hauntingly beautiful, and a bit creepy -- the makeup reminds me of blood. 
one to make us all feel good March 31, 2006 12:37 pm >>  Even Kate Moss, revered fashion icon of the world that she is, wears a little Topshop along with the Marc Jacobs and the McQueen.  Because in the end, it's not about who you wear, but what you wear.  Pictures taken yesterday at Dover Street Market.   
karl lagerfeld: always so tactful March 31, 2006 11:49 am >> Straight from the Kaiser's mouth, while he was in Asia this week: Here, you don't see big, fat women like you do in other parts of the world.
retail therapy doesn't work for everyone, apparently March 30, 2006 2:06 pm >>  I feel like this should be old news, as it seems like it's happened so many times before (twice), but it's not.  It just happened this morning.  Naomi Campbell was arrested for striking a woman in the head with an object that she allegedly threw.  Yikes.  What happened to those anger management classes?  UPDATE:  The treacherous object?  A crystal-encrusted BlackBerry.  The victimized woman?  Naomi's housekeeper.  Why?  Naomi accused the housekeeper of stealing a pair of her jeans.  More details here.  There's even a part where Naomi wears a white fur poncho.  Why?  The reason's pretty funny.  You'll have to go read.    
da doo ron ron ron, da du juan juan March 29, 2006 3:49 pm >> I love these ethereal pictures of Du Juan in Vogue Italia's March 2006 supplement.  The blurry softness combined with her dark hair and eye makeup provide a really nice contrasting image.
for all those kate moss fans March 29, 2006 3:26 pm >>  Hear from the ultimate Kate Moss fan.
handbagging it March 29, 2006 12:38 pm >>  I'm not really a huge fan of the whole "it" bag phenomenon (you know, gotta have that Chloe Paddington/Fendi Spy Bag/Balenciaga Motorcycle Bag).  TIME recently did an article, however, on how handbag designers try to divine the whims of consumers, hoping to make the next Murakami bag, which I found to be pretty enlightening. 
oh, c'est belle! March 28, 2006 10:54 pm >> Prepare your eyes for the feast of a lifetime!   French # 8 Revue des Modes has just come out for Spring/Summer 2006, and Thierry le Goues has graciously provided us with a huge collection of beautiful, beautiful images he shot for the magazine.  It makes my eyes water, they're all just so outstanding. 
i want. March 28, 2006 3:42 pm >> Des bottines en plastique -- it sounds so much nicer in French than the English.  Never did I think I would want plastic boots, but I saw these in the March 2006 Vogue Paris, and I like how you can see the bright colored socks through them.  Very funky.  I like it.   
the legs! the legs! March 28, 2006 11:49 am >>  They just go on for miles and miles...
