Love Life, Hate Kittens

Oldie but goodie. Kanye West on American Idol.

Thanks Who What Wear Daily. If they didn’t know before, now they know.

poor me.

“Despite barely scraping together 3 million viewers a week, the show has become the most talked-about, culturally relevant series on television. “It’s not a conventional TV hit in terms of viewership. Its numbers are low and it loses to stuff like The Secret Life of the American Teenager, a far more wholesome show that runs on cable,” Gay says. “But in terms of having a ‘moment,’ however you want to define it, GG definitely is having one. It will be very interesting to see if the show grows, or remains a clubby, small hit. Teen shows seldom have long runs — and I don’t get the feeling this will turn into ER. But it seems to be here to stay as long as the principals involved want to keep doing it.”

Part of the show’s appeal is its authenticity. “The show is sharp and connected to modern life, references, music and so on. Gossip Girl doesn’t feel like something that got drummed up in some network focus group by 55-year-old white dudes,” Gay explains. “No one’s going to accuse Gossip Girl of being The Wire or Mad Men, but if you roll with the fantasy/absurdity, it’s fun to watch, from the infighting to the insane clothes and snappy dialogue.””

I’ve been coveting a denim jacket for a couple weeks now since I first saw it in multiple fashion NY fashion blogs. Then Kim wore one to My House on Reggie’s birthday. [do you love how I act like I’m on first name basis with these people?]

Anyway, how hard can it be to buy a fucking denim jacket? I went to Forever 21 — no jacket. Wet Seal — nope. Guess — nope. Lucky Brand — nope. Abercrombie — yes but in an ugly color and weird fit. Nordstroms — yes, but for 300 bucks. WTF. Apparently, Nordstrom’s had a couple in their junior’s section but JUST sold out.

Please someone send me an ebay link or give me suggestions.

Yes. Denim Jackets are the new Ray Bans. Shoot me.

But I did follow basketball [in like middle school when i thought i had a penis]. Anyway, my boys and a lot of my facebook buddies [hi!] are advocating this so being the good friend and a proud LA’er.. i’m doing my part to spread the word.

“Due to the recent spark in the Lakers/Celtics rivalry, we as Lakers fans and players cannot wear the color green.

With St. Patrick’s day on the horizon, what will Lakers fans do?

Well, what better than to represent our Los Angeles Lakers! On St. Patrick’s day, we urge everyone within the Lakers Nation to wear your PURPLE & GOLD — show your Lakers support, along with your hatred for the Boston Celtics.”

[haha. i had a dilemma on what to tag this. so i put it under fashion.lolz]

I never really liked to wear jewelry or any heavy accesories. No earrings. No rings. Nada. Always felt a bit drag queen-ish to me. I was cleaning my closet the other day and realize my clothes are so streamlined. White Ts, Black Ts, Occasional pop of color Ts - all in the same cut. A-line dresses, swingy skirts, and solid sweaters/cardigans. Ever since 7th grade, I honed my fashion sense and avoid heavy patterns [hell, any patterns in general], pants, the colors red and pink, and turtlenecks.

I’m really fond of this girl’s style. Even when it’s over the top, it’s still clean.

OK. So we know Michelle Obama but it’s Jason Wu that has become a household name. Not only did he design Michelle’s gown for the inaugural ball but he designed her dress for the March cover of VOGUE. Exciting times. Also, Nordstrom will be selling his line so be ready ladies.

Lady Gaga is the next in celebs to launch their own clothing line. While I appreciate her distinct style, I do not want to see ladies prancing around pant-less. No I really don’t. kthxbai.

A quote from Akon:

“People dissed her because of the way she dresses, but she’s hot. Everyone wants to look like her. She’ll walk around in London in her underwear and you watch, everyone will catch on.”

God no.

Seriously. I avoided this atrocity back during high school and now its popping up everywhere. Even worse than the fugly cherry edition. Kill me.

In other words, yes I’ll buy one finally for the collection but it doesn’t mean I’ll love it. So THERE.

There is no surprise over Michelle’s Isabel Toledo choice for her inaugural dress since she’s L.O.V.E with Toledo’s designs. 

Hope she’s used to the new spotlight on her being the next fashion icon. We’ll be watching :D

A year ago, I was wearing nothing but dresses. Likes dresses with bows. Tea party dresses, school girl dresses, like fucking upper east side and/or summer hamptons fab. In fact, my friend Rick used to always say… “What are you gonna wear? A dress again?” :-/

While I’m still obsessed with my personal fashion icon and crush Blair Waldorf, lately I’ve been rocking jeans again. a lot. 

Anyway, enough of my ramblings, point is. If anyone, i do mean anyone, can find me this shirt. I will love them forever. I coveted this ish back in the day and I still effin’ do.
