>> ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL —Fresh on the tail of the news that the model of the future is with personality, Ali Michael may just be the one to fit the bill — she's got public speaking down pat, anyway.  First Sportmax, now Anna Sui with Agnete Hegelund: her Fall 2008 campaign bill of health is definitely clean.

>>  "Skooler" vs. "Shooler": the eternal argument returns.  Considering Jessica Stam just accompanied Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez to the Costume Institute Gala last month, and has walked in plenty of their shows, you'd think she would know how to pronounce their label. 

In the Proenza Schouler for Target commercials, Jack and Lazaro said "Skooler," but when Jessica announced the brand as a nominee for the "A-List Fashion Award" at Bravo's A-List Awards last night, she pronounced it "Shooler."  Maybe it was nerves — she was having a little trouble with the teleprompter.
