Is that a breastplate or you're just happy to see me?

Body armor is apparently the chicest thing right now - everyone is doing it. We're not even showing up at the tents unless we source a harness somewhere. And that leaves us only one day! (OMG) Apart from that, our outfits are coordinated to the state of fine art and our body mass index is downright illegal in Madrid. So, we're ready - let the Games begin!

Who are you looking forward to? Narciso and Francisco? Marc? Peter Som and Philip Lim? Doo Ri? The intrigue is unbearable, isn't it?

Papierdoll Fashion show this Monday

It doesn't get more Downtown than that. RSVP Here
In other news, Marni's showing leggings for men and we hear the look is going to be all the rage. So what should we call them:

Megs?
Meggings?
Mantyhose?

Life on the D-list

Look at who we have here... Santino and what's-her-name from America's Next Top Model!
Am I seeing cleavage? Tyra must be so proud. Take a word of advice from a professional, honey, cover yourself up. Want some x?

Meisel's got nothing on me

Webcam pics are our territory anyway...

Horny teens on webcams! Click click click!

Steven Meisel confirms our life-long conviction that fashion photographers deep inside (sometimes not so deep) really wish they could be pornographers. January 2007 issue of Vogue Italia features "horny teens" Sasha, Coco, Jessica, Hilary and Agyness pretending to get it on in front of webcams while wearing the latest Balenciaga. (You won't be seeing that on PornoTube....)




There's more on www.voguevanity.it - if you can deal with all that epileptic flash animation.

Dress rehearsal

Fashion weeks are coming ... They give me acid reflux.

Best of Paris S/S 2007? - Lanvin, as far as I'm concerned.

Lindsey Lohan spreads it for Miu Miu

Well. The good news is it looks nothing like her.

Lily Cole goes under water for charity

Being socially conscious is so glamorous right now. LILY COLE FOR FRESH2O LILY COLE FOR FRESH2O
Famous models may not single-handedly save Darfur, eradicate unethical diamond mining or stop global warming - but dipping in the pool they can do beautifully.
LILY COLE FOR FRESH2O LILY COLE FOR FRESH2O
The most benevolent model of the moment, however, is Liya Kebede. She's got her own brand-name charity and a part in this great movie called The Good Shepherd where she dies a terrible death of the hands of the CIA. We loved it.

Attack of the satin turbans!

If you're ever in the mood to dress up and pretend you're Marlene Dietrich satin headgear is where it's at. But if old Hollywood glamour is not your game just throw on a backpack and your look is instantly updated to Sasha - Spring/Summer 2007. (Thank Mz. Prada for this one)

Darling, you look so good face down

No, this isn't the corpse of Dakota Fanning. It's Ikeleine Stange: diva on the catwalk and in front of camera but in reality a nice, quiet, hard-working kid. (Unlike me here)

In meantime, have you seen the street-style of Suzanne Deeken - the consultant for Marc line? Talk about retro...

Dakota Fanning thing now officially jumps the shark

Tom Ford, GAP, Karl Lagerfeld and now Marc Jacobs? Why is everyone so obsessed with this evil tiny freak?!

On the up side - you can feed her Reeses peanut butter cups and her body mass index will still be 16. And you have to want to strangle little bitch just for that.

Karen Walker must open shop in NYC

Or at least get off her arse and schlepp out some of these highly-acclaimed sunglasses of hers because the ones we like went missing from Barney's and Barney's Co-op. Get with the program, woman.

Teen Vogue brings us back to life

After seeing this Teen Vogue ed we officially declare Sporty Chic our favorite trend for Spring! Something inside us just wants to scream "YES" to Dries windbreakers, Kim Jones track pants and Norma Kamali sweatshirts. What a breath of fresh air from all the overpowering retro frills everywhere!! Acidic yellow, electric blue - so exciting!

We're still on the fence about backpacks tho. There's just something inescapably touristo about them. But we promise to reconsider if we see it on Mary-Kate Olsen. *Just kidding*

We can't even remember the last time we liked anything DKNY, but anoraks are decidedly Donna Karan territory. It's her time again.

You absolutely must get the February Teen Vogue. If not for fashion, than for our favorite Russian lesbian on the cover.
