Keeping the Beauty Theme Going

I present you with Philosophy’s Save Me. Tested on my skin last night (i’m ok with being a guinea pig for PD), I woke up this morning feeling refreshed and ready to take on the world behind my computer screen.

You apply to you skin before you go to bed (make sure you rinse your skin, etc) apply to the parts of your skin that get the driest, wake up in the morning and….voila! Moisturized skin. If your skin gets dry during the day, I will be posting something else to help with that later in the day.

My Fashion New Year’s Resolution

My fashion New Year’s Resolution is to always keep in mind that fashion is not primarily about consumerism.

Rather, at its core, fashion is about art: design, color and composition. It’s a practical application of art, merging the aesthetic with a basic human impulse: to clothe oneself.

If I keep this in mind, then I will be able to appreciate gorgeous clothing for simply existing, and not feel the need to hoard it all in my own closet.

This dress from Michael Kors’ Spring/Summer ‘06 Runway Collection is the perfect reminder, because there is no way I could afford it, but I love just being able to see it in a photograph.

I Like Beverly Peele, but this Just Looks Bad…

Supermodel Beverly Peele was caught using a stolen credit card. She allegedly went to town on the card and charged over $10,000 in housewares, appliances and furniture.

It gets uglier.

According to investigators, she found the wallet in a supermarket, but not before taking down the credit card numbers from the wallet. She allegedly purchased a refrigerator, a washer and dryer, bedding and other items for her home.

It gets even uglier.

This was not the first time. Peele allegedly made unauthorized charges on a card belonging to a man from Coto De Caza in California. The man used the credit card at Peele’s modeling agency and she allegedly lifted the card numbers from his purchase.

While we totally believe you are innocent until proven guilty, criminal models are not a beautiful thing. Taking a page from Kate Moss though, she may get a slew of new contracts if this thing blows over in time for fashion week.

    Interview: Thomas Voorn
    Sonia Pereira Murphy

    Considering the now ubiquitous trend of disposable fashion where all that seems to matter is a cute factor, Thomas Voorn's intellectual take on clothing is not only refreshing, but enlightening. Voorn's fascination with clothing calls to mind an anthropologist intrigued with skeletal remains, a sociologist... [Go]
