Looks like Google has become the new gynecologist. Just type "is it normal" to see the most frequently asked questions.
Lynch Mob Scarecrow
Creepiest scarecrow in all of Manhattan. Looks like he was the victim of a lynch mob.
You've Got Mail
My version of "The Shop Around the Corner" has closed....to be reincarnated on Bleeker between 6th and 7th. I can't imagine it will be the same. Will probably be replaced by yet another Marc Jacobs store. Waaaa Waaaa.
Midwesterners Busted at the Pleasure Chest
I can't imagine what this group of Midwesterners is doing at 10:30am at The Pleasure Chest. Must be a stop on the Sex and the City tour. I am sure the staff loves that.
Breakfast at La Bonbonniere
La Bonbonniere is vintage NYC West Village
There they are! Just waiting to be enjoyed.
Sweet, syrupy deliciousness.
Gaga's Ginormous Grammy Wedgie
Gaga, you know you want to pick it. Do it!!! I will give the girl credit, though...it takes major balls to wear a get-up like that without any stockings. Beyonce would never rock it bare leg.You Know You're Thin When.....#2
OMFG. Ribs, clavicles, and saggy boobies. Roger is such a lucky guy. Can you imaging getting with that every night. It must be like f-ing a corpse. Eat a carrot or something, Rachel Zoe. And please, whatever you do...do not remove that wrap!Beyonce Gets the Short Stick...Gaga Wins
In the battle to keep up with Gaga, Beyonce has made herself the first sacrificial lamb to collaborate with her. Funny how they were on each other's songs at exactly the same time. Ah, all the more easy to compare the two. Sorry B., but your song, Video Phone, blows compared to Gaga's Telephone. I watched the Video Phone video once and was counting the seconds until it would end (being Beyonce and all, I did give her the respect to watch the entire thing). I think Gaga comes out on top....and her video isn't even out yet. What do you think?

L Train - Union Square to Graham...Stunning - w4m - 26

I spotted you at the Union Square L stop from down the platform. You have stunning gray/blue eyes I could see from the distance. We boarded the train in our respective cars, but to my surprise you switched to my car at the 3rd ave stop. You were wearing a blue flannel jacket and green t-shirt underneath. After a game of eye-tag that felt like it came straight out of a movie, I stood up before the Graham stop with the hope you would follow....and you did. I walked up the stairs right next to you. I stopped at the top of the stairs to get my directional bearings and you kept walking. As I crossed the street I looked back at you, and I think you were looking back too.
I know this is a complete shot in the dark, but I would love to see you again.
The good ones always get away.
Help! I'm Romantically Involved With My Vespa
Well, isn't this a romantic sight on Thompson Street at 9am on a Thursday morning. Someone hearts their Vespa....or the person riding it.You Know You're Thin When #1
You know you're ridiculously thin when.....the ankle strap of your stilettos look like bangle bracelets on anorexic wrists. Watch out for flying shoes and twisted ankles!
Gorgeous Blamain Spring '09 number, though. Bravo!
2009 Met Costume Institute Gala--The Worst of the Worst
I hate to be a nasty shrew (oh wait, no i don't), but Louis Vuitton dressed the worst of the worst at last night's Met Costume Institute Gala. The scary thing is that no one leaves the house thinking they look awful, so I also have to fault these mal-dressed mix-ups and their handlers who played a game of "The Emperor's New Clothes". I would advise these ladies to never be nasty to their assistant, PR rep, or stylist ever again....this is what awaits you--the fast track to the worst dressed list. Thankfully for their careers, normal humans aren't scouring the slideshow on Style.com (all 146 pictures of it). Just another instance of the runway to reality disparity....even if you are on a red carpet.Check out all the pics here.
Talk About Men at Work
One of these things is not like the other....Hmmm, I see construction equipment, traffic cones, parking meter, scaffolding, mannequin head----MANNEQUIN HEAD???!!! Just another wonderful Saturday stroll in my NYC neighborhood. I guess they didn't want the machinery to get lonely over the weekend. That, or they have some freaky Weird Science fantasy. Our tax dollars at work, my friends.
I Love NY Mag's Reasons to Love New York
I just love how I always end up reading New York Magazine's "Reasons to Love New York" issue while I am in Texas for the Holidays. Reading this every year (or the past three Holidays I have been a resident of NYC) makes me pine for the smelly streets, the crowded sidewalks, and the guy with the gangrenous foot at the downtown 76th street 6 train stop (I swear that thing is a fake foot to get money...it has looked the same for the past year and a half, no lie). Besides the great little snippets on why real writers love NY, my favs are the ones submitted online by readers. Below are the standouts of 2008, mainly because I could have written them about myself.
No. 2- "Because it loves me! I was born and raised in Texas and moved to New York City when I was 25--twelve years ago. In Texas, I was thought to be difficult, hardheaded, controlling, opinionated, bitchy, etc. when I moved here, all of a sudden I was considered sweet, polite, kind, intelligent, etc. I know I didn't change--I was just free from the South's idea of how a woman should behave." by Angela Landon
No. 33- "Because every time you visit another U.S. city, you instantly realize how attractive and sophisticated you really are. It is so easy to get laid as a New Yorker out of town. Easier than Brooklyn, even." by Brawndo
No. 54- "Because when people find out I am single, they don't look at me in a way that is the perfect combination of horror and pity." by Carla Stockton
Finally, I have to give props to my all time favorite from 2007...that we have single-handedly turned Starbucks into our own network of public restrooms.

Posh Spice New Hair Revealed
Screw the Fug Girls....Victoria Beckham in on point as ever! Pic snagged from Perez. I would never use a phrase like "Hawt'....It should be "Haute" you fat doof.
Posh Spice New Do...saga continues
I can't find any pics online yet, but this does not sound promising. HEY, there is no such thing as bad publicity.

Inside Marc Jacobs: Posh Spice Hair Emergency!

Our correspondents have just arrived! They report: "We just got here; the runway has a line of zigzagging mirrors down the center. It looks like the finale of A Chorus Line. And I don't know if I'm seeing things, very bad things, but Victoria Beckham just walked in and it would seem that she's cut off all her hair. It's horrendous! Like little tufts all over head. Jennifer Lopez just got here too (wearing a white dress). Posh kind of sneaked in behind her and hardly anyone noticed. Given the hair, probably for the best."

Victoria Beckham the new Mia Farrow?
Here is a juicy bit of news! We are in the thick of New York Fashion Week. Everyone has been scouring the papers and the web to get their fill of fashion, celebrities behaving badly, and model drama. You may have noticed that one of my favorite fashionistas, Posh Spice, has been completely absent from the festivities thus far. A little birdie told me she went to Garren Salon straight from the PJ (private jet for those of you out of the upper echelon acronym loop) to get rid of that tired bob which I hear was full of extensions...hence adding to the lollipop head. She is now sporting a Mia Farrow via Rosemary's Baby style cropped pixie cut. Vicky B has been holed up in her hotel room since Friday night (good God think of that room service bill!....oh wait, she doesn't eat---think of that mini bar bill!)
This is sure to cause quite a stir and get those tongues wagging when she makes her grand entrance at the Marc Jacobs show and party Monday night. I can't wait!!
