So yesterday was my last day at Fashionista. On Monday I start my new job as editor of Elle.com. Though I'm excited to take on this new challenge with a brand I've always loved, it's really hard and sad for me to leave this place.

Today Vogue released an editorial from their February issue “celebrating Hurricane Sandy's first responders.” In it, top models like Chanel Iman, Karlie Kloss and Liu Wen pose in looks by American designers (an Oscar de la Renta ballgown, a silk Donna Karan gown, a leather jacket from Proenza Schouler) next to Con-Ed employees, members of the National Guard, and the staff of the neonatal intensive care-unit at Bellevue hospital. At first glance, the story made us feel a bit icky. Residents of New York and New Jersey are still suffering in Hurricane Sandy’s aftermath. Juxtaposing a beautiful young model in a thousand dollar designer dress against Con-Ed workers and nurses seems, well, somewhat off.
