BJ: Ready-to-Wear

The 2009 Betsey Johnson collection arrived awhile ago, and the term ready-to-wear is yet again used liberally, as it is with most designers. Although I'll admit it, I'm swooning. It's no secret Betsey is a favorite of mine and a few pieces I would wear straight off the runway... minus is bowler hat and bob wig.

But this? Ready to Wear?


This, however, is adorable and I would wear it today if I could.


Last - and I'm sorry to do this, but I've got weddings on the brain - two of her bridal pieces are beautiful and SO wedding ready. Betsey, make me one, please?



If you need me I'll be combing through the 2010 resort wear collections on style.com. Sigh.

Dear Branden,

Yay! Good for you! Love, Me.

Branden won "Make Me a Supermodel" last night. While both Sandhurst and Jonathon are beautiful men with futures in modeling (I have no doubt) I was rooting for Branden. He just looks... well, like a model.


Calvin Klein much? Actually, this kid screams Marc Jacobs to me but I'll get to that in a moment. First, how HOT did they all look together?


This is now pose my future hubby and groomsmen will be striking in the wedding photos. Drool. So fierce. Frankly, these boys blow just about anything Tyra's girls have ever shown us out of the water. I loved Mountaha, but the boys deserved to be there. Also Timothy Greenfield-Sanders, you're amazing. Best photographer they've had. Now, back to that Marc Jacobs thing...



Branden fits in here, no? Pale, slender (Jonathon and Sandhurst were too "built"), air of adorable cockiness. I realize this is Marc Jacob's 2008, but it's close enough. Branden looks right. He just does.

After disagreeing with Tyra cycle after cycle of ANTM I'm so pleased with "Make Me a Supermodel". Plus their judges seem to actually know stuff about fashion and modeling because, um, they actually still do it.

A. Maze. Ing.


Kathy Griffin will appear on the new season of Paris Hilton's My New BFF!! Not only do I have a fascination with Miss Griffin, but I have a mad fascination with Miss Hilton's "New BFF" series. Squee!

Eonline interviewed Paris about the upcoming season.
In which she actually says "...because I'm not totally that airhead." I love that she says "not totally", implying that she is a little bit. I repeat: Love. It.

Last - is it me or is the dress she wore (pictured above) to last night's VMAs totally a ice-cream-cupcake-magic-fairy-land-Barbie mini dress? She is either a marketing pro who totally understands her niche or she has the intellect of a four year old. ZOMG!1! Pink Ruffles!!
