Imaginary Socialite

My favorite quote from last night’s Project Runway:

“His outfit was basic, but not, like Calvin Klein basic.”

Hey Daniel, are you sure you’re not

a) straight
b) the Imaginary Socialite?

Marc Jacobs creamy hobo – easier or harder to score than a fashion assistant job at a certain gorgeous revue?

(yes, darlings, that was a send-your-resume hint).

Male models generally scare me, for the following reasons:

1. They spend their days chasing cameras, I spend mine running from them.

2. They are super-tall and I enjoy ballet flats.

3. They like commitments, and bedtimes, even less than I do.

That said, these two are pretty cool kids, and anyway, they’re your new crushes and not mine…

1. If you bring a Kiehl’s tote to the Kiehl’s gifting suite, they’ll think you were invited.

2. When in doubt, describe every movie you see as “overreaching, but still inspired.”

3. Pell James is not James King.

4. Do not wear Ugg boots.

5. Do wear this t-shirt, designed for the festival’s only underground documentary (Fast Future Generation) by DCMA (the next step after Made). All the cool kids have one, and a bunch of TRL superstars will be wearing them, too, including our favorite anagram, Jaded Lemon. Are you in love yet?

Emma, 20.

Three brunettes, one bleached, walk into a bar…

Wow. You know you’re suffering from fashion exhaustion when you can’t even tell a hipster joke. It’s even worse than realizing your new black TSE shawl is really midnight blue…

What can you do with this new (for real) Von Dutch energy drink?

a) make it part of your new juice diet

b) throw it at kids in Ed Harcourt hats

c) pose with it on Blue States Lose

d) sell it for below retail on Canal

NYLON needs some new assistants!

Must be bright, detail oriented, able to multi-task, and have excellent written and oral communications skills. Duties will include administrative support for senior team and entry-level PR functions including managing media database, responding to media requests, working on press kit materials, editorial support, and personal endeavors.*

Also, it helps if you dress like this:

*personal endeavors = ability to impress Luke with your music taste, Heather with your party stamina, and Marvin with your stunning ability to keep everyone’s lives running despite dressing like those girls above.

Deborah, 25

A summation:

“I wanted to leave Italy, but Armani wouldn’t let me!”

“Wait, when I take my heels off I’ll only be a foot taller than you.”

“I have a thing for food guys. Okay, really anything with food.”

“I like to give blood for Christmas. Not, like, as a present to my friends…”

Murakami Bag
The lust of my senior year
Now, so Crayola.

(also, please direct your attention to LeSportsac’s new wonder, the Tokidoki collection. Fun fact, designer Simone Legno also did all the art for L.A. Fashion Week last season!)
