A photo my friend Anthony took at Alexander McQueen's flagship store in NYC. The colors are beautiful, no?

RIP Alexander McQueen

I was so happy at the start of the day to be able to post "HAPPY MERCEDES BENZ FASHION WEEK" but now I am just so upset at the recent news that Lee McQueen has passed away. I feel like he was at the peak of his game with those armadillo shoes and now we will never be able to witness whatever he had in store for us next. I wish I could express in more detail just how inspired I am by him, but my words mean nothing. EDIT: Here is a nice quote I found in the WSJ: "He has left us too soon; he had so much more to give, but the legacy he leaves us is a rich one and one that we will cherish and honor." -Robert Polet, Gucci Group Chief Executive

Random Wednesday

All day I wished I was in the snow playing with all the elves, but instead I searched through craigslist because it has strangely become my newest obsession. Do you do countdowns? For some reason I love counting down the days/hours/minutes/seconds to everything. There is so much to look forward to! But I don't want to waste time in the present thinking about the future either. It's so hard to balance the two, really. If we truly wanted to live only in the here and now we wouldn't waste our time at jobs, but hey, we need money for the future. And if you want that nice house, you have to start looking now. And if you want to get into that good college/program/internship, you need to be applying NOW. But right at this moment, I just want to look at pictures of pretty things I will one day own; not now.

Joshua Radin & Schuyler Fisk - Paperweight

So I am female (and occasionally a romance sap), which means I went to see Dear John last night. It was really wonderful. The ending was a bit disappointing, my friend even said very loudly at the end "THAT'S THE FUCKING ENDING?". But really, I was so incredibly impressed with a few scenes out of Channing Tatum. Yes, he's a gorgeous man in a body only the best artists, and perhaps God, can sculpt. Which is why it is nice to see him in something that doesn't require only shirtless scenes (see Step Up or any movie he's ever done in the past). He cried, I cried. It reminded me of the scene in A Walk to Remember when the guy cries on the way home from his Dad's. Man, did I cry at that scene. So anyway, the movie had a refreshing amount of humor, which made it all the more real in the end. All I really wanted to say was how impressed I was with Tatum's performance, although he did at first have that same role of his where he doesn't say much, doesn't seem interesting, but still looks pretty all the same. Oh! And there was a bunch of Joshua Radin, which is always cool by me. Now for the pictures:

And, of course, out of all the previews, I have to want to see the new Robert Pattinson movie. Ugh. I swear, this vampire shit is really getting extreme and I thought he was so ugly in those movies but he actually looks attractive in this next one. Also, I saw the filming for this outside of NYU. Thanks to all the screaming fans outside, I knew what the fuck was going on.

Akron/Family - Of All The Things

I have recently taken a liking to globes. I don't know why but I did say out loud last week that I want a nice antique-y globe in my house. I don't know where I would put it, but I want it. And maybe an antique-y map. I was in an apartment where the kids living there had access to an elementary school during late hours (yeah, I'm trying to say it in the least sketch way possible) and uhh...borrowed some signs and maps. Like signs that say Janitor, which is outside the bathroom, for example. And physical education was in front of one of the boys bedrooms. I thought that was clever. Well anyway, the maps they had were the kind that sit above the chalkboard that the teacher attempts to pull down but it's always an awkward experience for both teacher and students. Anyway, they looked really cool throughout the apartment.

Band of Skulls - Friends

So work has been...slow. Therefore, I made a list of (older) men that would look very nice on my shelf. This is in no particular order (but if there was, Jeremy Piven and Jake Gyllenhaal would be at the tippy top).

Jeremy Piven, I am obsessed with Entourage because of you. You are so incredibly attractive in this picture and I don't think I've ever seen a picture of you and felt disappointed in your choice of clothing. In other words, marry me.

Ryan Phillippe

Ryan Gosling (who is in a band that I still need to check out)

Jonathon Rhys Meyers

Jake Gyllenhaal

And OBVI the classics: George Clooney

Richard Gere

Who is your older man/woman crush?

Lykke Li - Possibility

How dreamy...

The Temper Trap - Sweet Disposition

Another humorous and spot on interpretation from fashematics on the Armani Prive Spring 2010 Couture collection, the same line Lady Gaga wore five outfits of to the Grammy's. I am not surprised, it is very outer space chic.

Yeasayer - O.N.E.

Some looks from 3.1. Philip Lim pre-Fall 2010 that I would wear everyday if I could.


Some Grammy's looks that I enjoyed. I love Gaga's dress, HATE EVERYTHING ELSE. Sorry.

Fergie in Emilio Pucci

Jennifer Hudson in Victoria Beckham

As if we don't know who this is, in Emilio Pucci as well

Miley. I like your Herve Leger dress a lot. But your mismatched hair extensions, I'm just bummed.

Beck - Replica

A photo from Erwin Olaf's new show, Hotel, Dawn & Dusk. This one is from The Dawn. I really like the all white and all black feeling to his photos, and the ones from The Hotel are REALLY cool. Gracias to style.com because I hope to see this show before it ends March 20. If you'd like to see it, it is showing at Hasted Hunt Kraeutler, NYC.
