Happy Birthday Anna!!

I can't believe I almost forgot about Anna's birthday. What kind of unofficial protege would I be if I forgot my own role model's/mentor's/hero's birthday, not a very good one. If you've seen any of my other posts you know I'm obsessed with Anna, like legit borderline stalkerish obsessed (but I mean that in the best way possible). Today the lovely Vogue editrix/queen of the fashion kingdom turns 62 but still looks as fabulous as ever. Always the workaholic, she's in Japan gracing them with her presence.

Just throwing this out there, but I think her cake should definitely look something like this:

You Are Not The 99%

I normally don't post anything non-fashion related cause I don't actually care about things that aren't fashion related (jk but not really) but this whole occupy wall street stuff is just so pointless. Before I go on a rant about the evils of liberalness I would like to say that I may not agree with the methods used by the occupy wall street protestors but I do support their overall message/enthusiasm for change. My real issue is not with the real protestors who are actually part of the 99% but the hipsters who are parading around downtown speaking out against capitalism and the evils of wall street meanwhile they are twittering and updating their facebook statuses on their blackberries and iPhones.

Fact: If you go to a school whose yearly tuition sans room and board is only a few thousand less than the median household income, you are not part of the 99%.

Just cause you live in brooklyn does not give you the right to compare yourself to the hundreds of people who struggle everyday to feed their children or put a roof over their heads.

I'm Back Bitches!

We'll I didn't actually go anywhere, I've just been to lazy to actually post anything but that's all going to change. Just started a new school year and so pumped!!! (forgive my inner bro) But seriously I have so many awesome ideas for this blog and I really want to make it amazing.

Boys Who Play With Dolls

If you read my blog you know I'm obsessed with Anna Wintour but I do know that there are other amazing Annas out there, specifically Anna Dello Russo (aka ADR or as I like to call her "the other Anna"). Well ADR has gone where no fashion editor has gone (at least not yet I think). She has her own barbie! It's the most stylish and fashionable Barbie I've ever seen. Definitely one doll I'd love to get my hands on.

Just In Time For Easter!

These are the most fabulous eggs you'll ever find. So amazing! They may not all be edible but they're all pretty to look it and isn't that the most important anyway? My favorites are the ones from Rag & Bone, Jason Wu and Eddie Borgo. Have a fabulous and fashionable Easter!

Mini Anna

I'm in love with this print of Anna as a cyclops with her signature bob by artist Craig Redman. It's the most adorable thing I have ever seen. I can't believe I just came across it. I'm like so in love, it's bananas! The series also has other fashion icons such as Carine Roitfeld and Karl Lagerfeld.
