Oh little Scuba, where have you gone?

Oh Scuba in size medium, color forest, where have you gone?

Did I leave you on the floor? Did someone sell you at a store, are you lonely and looking for me?

Oh won't you come back to me?

Pour la Victoire 'Jaclyn' Distressed Leather Satchel

Do I want a bag that zips on top or is a flap closure acceptable?


Tomas Maier, get over yourself and send me something already.

Mogul Masher

While some of my closest confidantes believe that I need no more vest in my life, I disagree! I want this one:

High-waisted trouser pants

I would like to pull off this look, but don't want to shop at American Apparel to do so.

Also, this couple's hair can go elsewhere.

Tomas Maier, can you hear me?

Dear Tomas,

I would accept any of the following as a Happy 2011 gift (I will overlook your tardiness just this once):


The Veneta in Lagoon.


Or, the Aquatre.

Maybe a small cross-body bag if you're not feeling so generous. The empire color is very nice too.

I also enjoy the chartreuse, known to you as assenzio.

Fondly,

Erin

My hair idol gets new TV show

Well, I never watched her first US show on MTV; maybe that's why it failed? Now Alexa Chung and her glorious mane bring us a thrift store shopping tutorial on PBS. I don't feel compelled to watch that either. Alexa, please just make a show about your hair.

Kim France on beauty products worth buying

This is a fine, short essay and thought-provoking slide show (e.g. is any shampoo worth $140 per bottle/jar?) from the former editor of Lucky magazine, detailing what beauty products she will spend money on now that she doesn't get them for free.

Biggest surprise: she espouses the efficacy of Givenchy Mister Light over YSL Touche Eclat!

Hair Envy

I know I am way late to the party for people jealous of Alexa Chung, but right now it's just her hair that's getting to me.

Lara Stone on cover of French Vogue

NBD.

Vince Scuba

Do want. Do not want to look like Morticia Addams while wearing.

They said their J. Crew bathing suits last forever

One day I hope to be able to spend $410 on a bathing suit, but until then I will be paying under $15 a piece at H&M. I do not buy the argument in this NYT piece that selling bikinis as separates drives up the retail price by 20%.

Lara Stone gets married

to a guy from Little Britain.

I like her better here:

I want boots like these

They probably won't look like this on me.

When I am ready to spend $200 on a bathing suit

it may be this one.

Reebok EasyTone

The commercials for this product are so pervy!



Can someone tell me if these shoes work?

Leather shorts at Coachella

Are you kidding me, whowhatwear? Refinery29 is more reasonable, though no one wants to see me in another vest. I also like what they have to say about cute clothes for biking.

Also I am ready for some new sunglasses.

Pablo Escoparty

What's a gal to wear to a Pablo Escobar-themed birthday party?

Inspiration: Penelope Cruz in Blow

Inspiration: Sharon Stone in Casino

Encouraged by Wikipedia's "1980s in Fashion" page, I borrowed Sarah's amazing zebra print sequin dress. Thank you Sarah!

ARE YOU A FASHION INSIDER?

For $350 I have the right to burn that t-shirt.

The French word for model is mannequin

I probably knew that a few years ago and have since forgotten. Creeps me out to see it in print.



I really like Catherine McNeil.

Garance Dore and Scott Schuman are together?

If I had done my research (or more blatantly here) I would have known already. That is a fashion blog monopoly in the making!
