My first thought on seeing this picture was, nice fabric. My second was, someone please get this girl a slip! Or else fire the photo stylist.
I hadn't even considered, as nadarine points out, that this might be "combi-shorts." Perish the thought.

I'm torn. The one on the right looks better-made, but the cut of the one on the left looks more current. Is the one on the right a man's jacket and the one on the left a woman's? That might explain the discrepancy.

As long as they don't try to take your domain name away from you, it could lead to increased traffic.
I think it's a poor choice to name the show, though. At least call it "Tyra's Fashionistas" or something like that. This blog will always come up before the show in Google.

I don't leave the house without my undereye concealer. Everything else is optional.

The studded tee looks like something from the women's discount store in the strip mall next to Wal-Mart, the one that sells mumuu-suits in primary colors. And the floral pattern on that skirt is so very mid-90's, it makes my skin crawl.
The dress and sandals are really nice, though.

Since white day is for boys giving gifts to girls and lots of Japanese girls are obsessed with LV, it makes perfect sense to me.

Yikes. Someone got a little overzealous with the lip liner. Much as I hate to quote Seinfeld, I agree that it's important for a woman to know where her lips stop.

OK, Richie and Fergie should totally hook up for a new project.

ANTM is having a bit of a shake-up right now. But I can't think of an "entertainer" who would replace either Tyra or Jay Manuel.

I can't believe someone liked that crazy Chanel star-spangled romper enough to rip it off!

I think the dress looks really unflattering in the first photo - the color washes her out and the arrangement of panels makes her look flatter and wider. I was wondering why you shot her! The 2nd shot makes more sense. The back of that dress is fab!

Yikes. Are you sure that's Ali and not Dinah?

Why the surprise? Y'all are the ones who blogged last winter about the "robin's egg blue" all the models were wearing with the spring '08 looks.

Sounds like you need to use ThisNext (www.thisnext.com). When you bookmark ("recommend") or wishlist something, it has a little feature that will let you recommend it to someone else. And it works with all web sites.
I've been using it for a year or so to keep track of stuff I see online that I want to buy or that I want to give as gifts, or that I think my friends might like.

If I had skin like hers, I'd probably want to go around with as little clothing on as possible, too.

For their 30th anniversary, they ought to re-issue some of their old designs for nostalgia's sake. Iguana t-shirts, anyone?

I always heard it called a "toque." Or is that just the Canadian pronounciation?

I wear pink in shades ranging from pastel to magenta. It looks really good on me. I can't imagine not wearing it.
Orange, on the other hand, looks terrible on me. I don't own any orange or rust clothing.

It won't be the bags that are bigger next go-round, it will be the logos. Instead of discreet logo patterns we'll have giant logos so big and obvious that the current crop of bags will seem subtle by comparison. Remember those giant logo Esprit t-shirts from way back when? Something like that.
At any rate, doesn't matter to me because I don't like to wear or carry anything with a logo splashed across it.
