Courtney Love was so enamored with which design team that she wrote them an “inspiration check” for $25,000 within a few minutes of meeting them?
Between Two Ferns: Along with millions of others, Britt and I saw The Hangover this weekend. It’s awesome. Zach Galifianakis kills. And so does his wardrobe, key pieces of which the kids over at the LA Times tracked down. We would be honored to join his wolfpack. {All the Rage}
Smile, You’re on Sara’s Camera: Sara Ziff just might be the Michael Moore of the modeling world. Prepare to be disturbed by what you see. {Fashionologie}
Stylishly Social: This timeline of socialite fashion makes us really miss Carolyn Bessette. {Refinery29}
Call Us: Apparently Bar and Leo have broken up. We’d like Mr. DiCaprio to note that while we may not be supermodels, we do care deeply about the environment and Scorsese films. {People }
The latest edition of WWWWD has arrived, just in time for the weekend. We have yet to figure out who exactly is behind the pub, but that certainly does not lessen our enjoyment while reading.

Magazine Whore
If you, like us, are obsessed with magazines, welcome to phase one of the best project ever.
A friend just sent us a link to Premier Issues, a site that’s taken it upon itself to scan in debut covers of all the magazines they can get their hands on. They have obvious ones like LOVE, but hard to find, nostalgia-inducing covers, too like Cindy Crawford on the cover of George, Courtney Love on Flaunt, Drew Barrymore for Jane, Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey on Teen Vogue.
Most of the covers come with Letter from the Editor text and hopefully, soon, scans of the rest of the magazine.
For now, here’s this, from Jane Pratt in Jane’s first issue, “Drew said, ‘If you put anyone else on your first cover, I’ll kill you.’ Seriously, having one of my most beloved people on the front of the premiere issue is overwhelmingly wonderful,” because we still miss it every day.
Outtakes from LOVE’s shoot of Courtney Love by Hedi Slimane, right this way…
“Our compromise is, we’ll do one house in Malibu, one in the West Village for Frances and one in London for me.” - Courtney Love, on what she’s been up to, in Self Service.
Our most fashionable heels don’t hold up so well on the streets of New York, and often times, we don’t want to put them at risk while we dance away to The Kills.
So lately, even at work, we’ve been pairing ensembles with some pretty kick-ass, take no prisoners, rough and tumble boots.
But since we don’t want to come off like a 2008 Courtney Love, we’ve been looking for ways to soften the edge on our favorite utility-wear.
Naturally, we remembered the lacy ankle socks that our mom’s dressed us in. These from Sock Dreams are playful enough to add a bit of Lolita to an otherwise biker-esque outfit.
We can’t wait to scuff up our new Docs while we reminisce about hopscotch on the playground.

Sonia Rykiel beat Luella Bartley and Chloe as our favorite collection of the season. Why? Because she somehow chucked both Tinlsey Mortimer and Courtney Love on the runway, as incarnated by Siri T. and Heidi Mount.
Close and shocking second place: Chanel.
Our favorite MySpace message today comes courtesy of Courtney Love, who wants everyone to check out Marc Jacobs’ updated profile:
“Please add marc jacobs and check out the wonderful work my guys who design myspace did on his page, his layout is sick..!!! please add him and compliment him on his layout thanks xcl”
The whole thing is quite funny, especially since Courtney’s MySpace was sending messages last month asking for excellent web designers - we guess they were for Marc.
As for the new page, those of you who were first friends with Marc won’t see anything too new, until you check out his photo section, where you can view pictures of Marc with Mary Kate, Marc with Irina… and Marc with Christina Aguilera, at her husband Jordan Bratman’s hula-themed birthday party.
Yes, really.
In fact, there are so many photos, we suspect Marc will transfer the Hawaii vibe to next year’s Christmas party, just so everyone can wear swimsuits and get lei’d…
Frances Bean Is Not a Tommy Girl
The Courtney Love interview in The Telegraph is so incredibly outrageous that of course it’s almost boring.
She chants for thirty minutes with a Buddhist guru before she starts the interview.
She admits to blacking out on large periods of her life, including a three-hour phone chat with Vivienne Westwood.
She is not dating, has not dated Pete Doherty.
And then talk turns to Frances Bean, whose godmother is Drew Barrymore and who was apparently offered a Tommy Hilfiger campaign, but was blocked from accepting by Courtney.
“She wants to be a political journalist anyway,” explains the singer/ actress, who appeared in the front row of more fashion shows this season than any other celebrity.
But we can think of another reason Frances Bean couldn’t be a Tommy Girl - she’s just too cool for their pressed leather bombers and flower-spackled sun dresses. One might even suggest it would be insulting to her family’s brand name.
Now if we heard that Courtney wouldn’t let her daughter do a Miu Miu campaign, we’d actually be wondering…
