Also, reckonings of Someone Else’s Song by The Libertines:
and in the morning when you’re falling in your makeup
I know there’s something that will always be all wrong
when I look at you I know you’re feeling better
and I have to say by now, I’m singing someone else’s song.
Or I could have misheard those lyrics entirely, but that’s my version and I like it.

I love Blood is the New Black’s fall designs. I want to wear one to the premiere of The Corpse Bride. I’ll be gravely stylish.
[KEREN RICHTER - AM I THE IMAGINARY SOCIALITE?]
Which fashion designer’s screen name and company computer login is SLIM?
So chic.
So appropriate.
Unless this designer is talking about cigarettes, in which case it’s just funny.

If I really loved the name Maddox, I’d be sure to crash a certain private party in East Hampton this Saturday. Specifically, a party full of glamazons sympathetic to the plight of Hatian youth.
I’m just saying…

From: cd@likediorbutcooler.comHey girl,
Thinking about sabotaging the Matthew Earnest show with stink bombs. That’s not mean, that would be funny! Thoughts?
–CD
I think I’ve seen plenty of shows stink, and bomb, without any interference from the audience. Best to leave it to fate, you know?

From today’s WWD, designer Arnold Scaasi on the pitfalls of modern style:
“There used to be a certain time  not so long ago  when people put some effort into what they were wearing. It’s almost impossible to tell the difference in people financially.”
Exactly. I mean, what good are Gucci sunglasses if not to shield your view from the unwashed masses?

Marc Jacobs, in his when-will-I-be-Amy-Larocca article today:
“There are certain girls who make mistakes, and I just love that. I love the strength to move forward. It’s very hard to be someone publicly, and then to be human and honest at the same time, say, ‘Yeah, I did that. Yeah, I’m human.’ It’s a dark angel, not dark like an evil spirit, it’s a melancholy, broken, dark soul. It’s a good thing.â€Â
Baggage. Stylish. Awesome.

Speaking of Alicia Silverstone, did you know she spent a month at Shakespeare & Company in the Berkshires, doing an intensive Shakespeare study program so she could be Juliet in Baz Luhrmann’s big movie?
But wait, she wasn’t Juliet…
Too bad, since Paul Rudd was Paris, and then they would have been a dysfunctional couple in not one, but two classic teen flicks.
Also, did you know Leonardo Di Caprio and Claire Danes were clad in exclusively Prada and Miu Miu for the film? Yep…

When my mom and I first watched Clueless together, like ten years ago, I asked her why Elton kept going to the bathroom during class, and she said, “that’s just His Thing.”
Now tonight, we’re watching Clueless for like the hundredth time, and I finally get it:
Elton keeps running to the bathroom to do coke.
Thanks, mom; you should be pretty proud that it took 10 years for me to understand something this totally sordid. Also, you’re pretty cool – I don’t know any other moms who will quote Clueless with their daughters.
Awww, we’re having, like, a virtual bonding moment.
[EVA AMURRI - AM I THE IMAGINARY SOCIALITE?]
So exciting. Yay.
PS – I think Bill has a crush on the aforementioned Patrick M; he’s run two other photos of the M.A.C. addict since January…
