Banana Republic Fall ’08 – Cute Clothes, Cuter Models

Last night’s unveiling of Banana Republic’s Fall 2008 Holiday/Fall line was like a lot of other fashion week shows, except in April. It started twenty minutes late, PR girls everywhere, editors pretending to ignore the free champagne, assistants in standing room only – the Vogue girls even held court from their first and second row [...]

Quote of the Day

“Stop it! Stop asking me about Hillary‚Äôs pantsuits, or any other aspect of her personal style! If you persist, I swear to God I will stuff Mrs. Clinton into a Balenciaga bubble dress with matching gladiator spike-heeled boots, and then you‚Äôll be sorry.

Guess We Should Talk About Gwyneth…

Dear Gwyneth, You’re the talk of the town thanks to Iron Man‘s impending premiere.

DIY: Yo Yo Ma Headband!

I was having lunch with my friend Kristina, fellow FIT student and shop girl extraordinaire, and I couldn’t take my eyes off her Wohl-worthy headband.

Adventures in Copyrights: Chain Gang

Reader Melinda sent in this strange edition of Adventures, because she’s a little confused, as are we – The Steve Madden version came first, then the Target by Tressa, but why copy at all? We think Steve’s were probably inspired by Juicy Couture, lover of useless chains, but the truly interesting aspect of this one [...]

It’s Like Google, But With a Better Outfit

Laura from Men’s Health just alerted us to the coolest thing to happen to Google since G-chat. You can personalize your homepage even more – and that doesn’t just mean choosing where your icons go – it means picking an entire designer or artist theme.

“Audrina, Are We Wearing the Same Pants?”

The Hills has been lacking fashion lately, and with the elusiveness of labels and editors comes a sharp sense of anything with stitches – sort of the way you can smell anything when you’re hungry. So when Lo says to Audrina, “are we wearing the same pants?” We were immediately like, “Why yes, you are, [...]
