The Heatherette After-Party at the Roseland Ballroom was a blast. There were Boys, Boys, Boys - as far as the eyes could see!!!

It’s no secret that I am and always have been a supporter of purported mega-pervert Dov Charney and his casual clothing chain, American Apparel — despite the fact that the seams on my clothing from them sometimes unravel — so my reaction to to the news of American Apparel being sold to Endeavor Acquisition Corporation for $382.5 million is, well…mixed.

I like Dov so on one hand, I am very happy for him and any success he encounters in life. And, just like a Starbucks of the t-shirt world, American Apparel …

Metro.Pop’s August/September issue featured a beautiful editorial called “Seeing Double” (shot by Sarah McColgan and Styled by Beba Knight), that featured several models sporting Butter Yellow Oxfords by Wunderkind.

Well, I’m still VERY annoyed by that but for some reason Diddy on the cover of this NYLON for Guys doesn’t bother me as much. Maybe it’s because I respect him more (even though I’m not a fan) or because it’s more of a Men’s lifestyle magazine so I can’t really go on my tirade about actual Fashion should be presented by actual models. I’m not quite sure but if that makes me hypocritical, …
