Phil Oh and Susie Lau on Their Urban Outfitters Collection Inspired by Gummy Bear Shots and Tacos...Sort Of
If there are two superbloggers easier to love than Phil Oh and Susie Lau, I haven't met them. The proprietors behind Streetpeeper and Style Bubble have each been at the blogging thing for more than half a decade, yet manage to remain far away from the hoopla. And that's probably because Oh, a photographer/writer (who shoots for Vogue.com, amongst others), and Lau, a stylist/writer (who has written for Dazed & Confused and Elle UK, amongst others), have talents far beyond uploading a post on Wordpress. Their most recent collaboration is an expression of their oft-overlapping personal styles and yen for travel: a small collection for Urban Outfitters, Oh, Bubble!, inspired by a whirlwind trip around the world. With Oh in Brooklyn and Lau in London, we talked this morning via email about the project. And other stuff. Like Tokyo Disneyland. And gummy bear jello shots. And Justin Bieber. Because there's way more to these two than fashion.

Last night, Fern Mallis sat down with Suzy Menkes for the latest installment of her "Fashion Icon" series at 92Y. The noted fashion critic candidly (and sometimes hilarious) addressed everything from catching an upskirt view of Madonna sans underwear at the Met Gala, why she didn't like Punk: Chaos to Couture, and why she was surprised by the negative response to her controversial "Circus of Fashion" piece.
Tim Blanks on the Street Style Phenomenon: 'It Makes Monsters, It Doesn't Make Gods'
And the fashion circus debate continues.

The Princess and the Peacock: We're Still Not Over Suzy vs. Susie
"So do you want to talk about this?" asks Leah. This being Suzy Menkes' "Circus of Fashion" article from T, which turned into this "Blog is a Dirty Word" manifesto from Leandra Medine, which rolled into this "Sad Clown" response from Susie Lau. (A Times story called "My Look, My Ego, My Brand" snuck in there, as well, as did a piece questioning whether fashion bloggers have gone "too far" on The Daily Beast.) So what do I think about this? I think I need some whiskey.
Why I'll Always Dress Up for Fashion Week

Proof that Street Style Has Lost Its Authenticity
At some point "street style" referred to stylish people wearing their own clothes that they bought and put together in outfits themselves and then just went about their business. Now, there are stylists, PRs, agents, staged shoots, and more factors coming together to take the authenticity out of street style, especially during fashion week. How soon before they just cut the charade of spontaneity and set up an actual red carpet in front of the tents?
