Some news! Today is my last day working full-time at
@TheCut
@NYMag
!!!!!!! After 5.5 years, I've decided to do something no one has ever done before, which is go FREELANCE. I'm sad to say goodbye, but also excited for a challenge. (More complicated taxes.) Let's work together!
North West having a poop-themed birthday party and forcing all of her friends to dress up like like poop might be the thing that finally breaks my brain beyond repair.
I remember seeing Virgil at a work event in ~2015/16 and asking for an interview. He kindly obliged, and I mentioned wanting to work with him on a larger profile in the future. I asked who the best contact was, and he gave me his cell. He did that for so many people. What a loss.
So Tom Ford loves orchids because Halston loved orchids, and Halston loved orchids (and spent $150k a year on them) because Charles James loved orchids. So these three expensive flower loving men have basically been bankrolling New York’s orchid industry for like, 80 years. Nice.
Okay I've figured it out: The Thing about The Bear is that it harnesses the full power of the Morally Compromised Italian Boss Sexy Thinking Face (+ Rings).
I check The RealReal every single day, multiple times a day, and have for at least the last 5 years. It’s where I buy most things. Being so addicted to it allowed me to more clearly see its cracks when they began to appear...
Much has been said about
@amyodell
's delicious Anna Wintour biography, but there is 1 sentence in it that stopped me cold when I read it, and that has haunted me ever since... What the HELL is a caprese salad without tomatoes?
@grubstreet
let me find out.
Between the comically oversize sleeves, cigarette collars, and colors (!) other than beige, I feel like the Olsens have been dabbling with… a sense of humor??
I moved into my own apartment recently and instead of purchasing "necessary" items like, say, forks, I've instead bought:
- An expensive ice cream scooper
- A candle shaped like salami
- A tiny lamp that looks like a mushroom and has five different color settings
For fall I want TEXTURE, not CLOTHES. Alerts are set for SILK SLIP, and MOHAIR, and MARABOU, and VELVET. Just bought some vintage Agnes B leather pants even though it's 100 percent humidity outside.
This NYFW had everything: a full moon, Mercury retrograde, a huge storm, an invasion of big scary mutant flies, TikTok chaos, and the death of the Queen. And everyone’s like, “SS23 is about nipples.”
Every time I go on a date I have to fake surprised when a guy tells me *whispers* the stock market might crash soon. It’s like no duh I spend my entire day shopping I’m not an idiot.
Was walking through the Oculus yesterday and these finance guys in vests were like “Bro, did you read that article about the actor who plays Kendall? He literally IS Kendall.”
Going to start a cooking newsletter exclusively for sprucing up Annie's mac n'cheese. Each recipe will only involve three ingredients, one of which is Annie's mac n'cheese. I will also invite a rotating cast of guest chefs to contribute, none of whom are actually chefs.
Pleased to announce that after a lifetime of trying to find an affordable pair of jeans that actually fit me and stand the test of time, I am giving up. I will no longer wear denim, look at it, or discuss it. Thank you!
Watched man wearing Rick Owens platform boots eat a salad in Soho yesterday. He was sitting on a tiny bench and his boots were so high that his knees were at his chin, and he just sort of shoveled the salad into his mouth.
