To Quote Marvin Gaye, Ms. J, "Here My Dear,"

I was reading Marie Claire today. They always have thoughtful, feverish articles about the plights of women in third world countries. I usually think how forward thinking and global they are until I read the rest of the magazine and it is all Aryan Nation. My point is: PUT WOMEN OF ALL RACES IN YOUR F**CKING MAGAZINE!! Do not just play lip service. It drips of condensation and white supremacy. But alas, I am a complex yet shallow person and I will continue to buy it as long as they have great shoes.

Bergdorf Blondes. Why.

Ok. I just finished reading "Bergdorf Blondes" by that darling "it" girl Vogue contributor Plum Sykes. I wanted a breezy and fun read for the summer and thought this could be it.

I hated it. You would think I would have learned something after the hideous "The Devil Wears Prada." Now God knows I love Vogue and am a fashion whore. I thought this book would temper my love for all things fashion with a wee bit of depth. Not gonna happen. This book is vapid nonsense.
