Editor of Vogue Italia Calls Fashion Blogging an “Epidemic”
“They don’t do much damage because they are like moths; they live only at night.”
Are they also kind of gross and leave a weird residue on you?

i know i’m gonna have to tell all the bloggers coming for fashion week to be cool. cuz some of this stuff and some of these people, i’ll admit - i have problems keeping a straight face while i bask in the glow of their presence.
Keep a straight face? ;-)
I Work In Fashion

When you work in fashion, it is impossible to answer the “What do you do for work?” question without sounding pretentious. Going into specifics only makes matters worse.
@StyleEpiphany, our digital #WWDMAGIC correspondent is quite profound in her day job.
Truth. I always sound like an asshole when I talk about what I do.

Actually there’s a whole discussion group on Choira about how Tumblr could be better, you should go over there and suggest it!
HOLY CRAP there is a “Choire” themed version of Quora? Too insidery doesn’t even cut it.

This is kind of funny given that I am writing a bunch of love-Tumbles to McNally Jackson but I actually have very few books at home. Like I look as if I am not quite literate. Mostly because I tend to resell my books or give them to someone else when I am finished. I...

– CNN Says Portal 2 is Like Angry Birds | Geekosystem (via nickdouglas)
I admit I find this comparison kind of oddly insulting. Of course Rob once told me that I would be excellent at Portal because the two enemies are logic and gravity aka the primary enemies of all fashionistas.

Well I Did Order Challah
This makes me feel insecure about my Aquavit + Smorgasbord shindig with Georg tomorrow. I mean the guest list may have some cross over (I think the guy from Esquire and that guy from Flavorpill will both be there) but we did hire a bartender. Being a Young Manhattanite is more glamorous than I expected.
“Style is the substance of the subject called unceasingly to the surface.”
– Victor Hugo (via anntaylor)
Bartender?
So the party tomorrow is going to be pretty epic. A lot more folks than I think we originally thought. How douchey are Georg and I going to look tomorrow if we hire a bartender for our party?

Evolving thought: Maybe we need to completely jettison the “where did you first hear about ____” notion of news. Because, seriously, who cares? The question should probably become: “Where did you go next?”
(Update: I’m gathering anecdotes on where people first heard about the AZ shooting. A lot of people are citing Soup. Interesting.)
Ha. Totally....
