Blondie Love

So Blondie played a free concert in Brooklyn last week. My brother and father were pretty excited but I couldn't go (work is evil). So anyways, they had a grand ol' time. But luckily, I just came across this French Vogue editorial featuring Raquel Zimmerman (the one and only). She channels Blondie to perfection:




(If only I could afford this jacket. Urban Outfitters has a similar version right now)



So yea. I decided the 80s are my favorite fashion decade. 'Too Cool For School' is what it was.

First Lady Shorts


America. We have much more pressing issues to discuss than whether or not Michelle Obama's shorts are TOO SHORT.

Lara's Transformation


When I first saw this cover of September's French Vogue, I starred at it for a VERY long time. I tried to identify the model but I just could not recall the name. I began wondering who is this Natalie Portman look alike and why would Carine Roitfeld give her the September cover? Well silly, easily confused ol' me. It was none other than Lara Stone. Ok. We all know Lara. What is she most famous for? Three things 1) Bleached blonde hair 2) Barely there blonde eyebrows and of course, 3) Her gap. But on this cover, none of those things were on display. Darken locks, shapely eyebrows and pursed lips were staring up at me.

Here's Lara one the cover of last month's W magazine. It's the Lara we all know and love:
I will say that I love a good transformation and the Vogue cover looks amazing, but I'll take blonde Lara over brunette Lara any day. Some may disagree with me, but brunette Lara could easily get lost in the sea of dark-haired models.

So I shall leave you with some amazing shots of her:





She can't do that with brown hair!

Run This Town Premiere

Run This Town finally premiered today:



I honestly thought they would do much more with the video...but I loved Rihanna's attitude in it. However, everytime Jay-z' face popped up on-screen, all I kept thinking was "so old..." But good job guys. Loved the song and I love that Rihanna was channeling Che Guevara with her black beret.

The 40s are taking over.
