I live in a model building.

Or at least I call it that - it’s actually just a regular building in the west village in which agencies rent out a few apartments to house models coming and going out of the city.

And living with them, among them, seeing them every single day has really exacerbated my love hate relationship will all things model. For example, I hate being in the elevator with one when I’m eating McDonald’s fries out of the brown paper bag. But I love seeing them in their natural habitat and trying to absorb just an ounce of their off-duty style.

Which brings me to the problem - I can’t master their casual chic look without looking like a bag lady. And I know it’s not because my legs don’t reach my armpits, I’ve seen normal looking girls pull off Kate’s layers and Stam’s slicked back ponytails. My closets packed with scarves, sheer tees, leggings, skinny jeans — all the ingredients! But something’s missing.

Do you have this look down? What am I missing?

We love the trend of modeling agencies starting their own blogs (thanks, Elite, for starting it!) because it gives us gossip and access to our favorite girls at like half the speed of stalking.

This week, Women Management launched their own blog, and here’s what we learned:

*That Ryan McGinley shot Shannan Click (left) for his own personal work.

*That Mariacarla Boscono is friends with Sean Lennon (did they meet through Irina?).

*That Meredith Melling Burke totally digs Toni Garnn.

*That Julia Stegner shot a Maybelline campaign in the rain last Friday and we totally missed it!

Check it out for yourselves.
