Paris smoking “dope” in South Africa? The hyphy “movement” has official gone worldwide.
-If Anna Della Russo says gold is the new black for Fall 2010, you don’t argue, you don’t walk; you run to your closet, pull out all of the flashy gold pieces you’ve been dying to incorporate into your wardrobe, and scream to high heaven that finally, while the recession ain’t over folks and some say it never will be, you’re officially allowed to re-wrap yourself in opulence. Cuz if ADR says it’s true, then by golly, it is! 
-So, last night- or was it early this morning?- I headed over to BleachBlack for a daily dose of Kristin and Val‘s dirty, grungy-ish fashion diary, only to find out- eek!- it’s been hacked. So I was like, hey girl, heads up – something up with your blog? firefox keeps telling me it’s an attack page?! as in, don’t go there. She was like, I know dude… Working on it. Thanks love. And viola! BleachBlack is up and running today, outfitted with a perfect little “fuck you” to the lousy folks who hacked their site. (And hey, guess what? She’s looking for an intern, so all y’all should pounce on that by either DM- that stands for Direct Message in Twitterland- or emailing her.)
- As for me, I am painfully aware of the GoDaddy.com situation- where you pay for cheap hosting, and lately, apparently get hacked. Informed by NubbyTwiglet’s post about her ordeal, I’ve decided I’m definitely glad I pay extra for Bluehost.com. Ukranian hackers? Bleh. No thanks. (Ps. check her out; graphic designer, online personality, and shoe lover? What more do you want in a blogger?)
-It’s July, which means June gloom is over; which means duh, swimsuit season post? Yesssssss pleasssse. Look forward to expanding your knowledge about what’s hot and what’s not for your bod this summer.
-Dirty Minds? Check out the Sartorialist’s latest Silver Fox in the making (think Eric Bana in 10 years), a man who can simultaneously rock a t-shirt and a pocket square. (And Scott thought it couldn’t be done? Pshhhh.) What pulls the whole outfit of muted grays and neutrals together? The wisps of silver in the man’s hair. Duh.
-Oh, and guess what? A lovely link to the rainbow cult Ferragamo’s Garance has put up.
-By the way, does anyone else read Fashion Gone Rogue? Of course you do, because it’s the place you snag all the latest editorials. Well, poor FGR has been served with a notice about using Lily Donaldson in it’s logo without paying to use the image. Am I shocked? No, of course not, because duh, there’s such a thing as copyright law. So here’s me, doing my civic duty, by reminded you bloggers out there to not just snatch and steal photos for your own, because you never known when a lawyers going to contact you and demands thousands of dollars for some piddly little thing like a supermodel’s face in your logo. (Luckily, FGR has settled the issue, and all those who use FGR as a go to source for editorials breathe a sigh of relief. Phewwww.)
-Which leads me to my next point. I need a haircut, and just like Scott’s Silver Fox in the making, I like the idea of hair being used as an accessory, not a necessity, so look for photos soon of me rocking a fade with designs (aka a tribute to Ron Artest) soon!
- Ozzy Osbourne as Rolling Stone’s Health Columnist? Shit, I might have to start reading that pub again. Lord knows it hasn’t been relevant since it plastered B.S. on the cover in her undies at 16.
-Oh, and guess what guys? You know how I’m always buying rad stuff on the cheap? Well, I’ve decided it’s time to clean house. I’ve got wayyy too many accessories, wayyy too much jewelry, and wayyy too much clothing. Ebay store coming soon? I think so. Cheers to that, and hope you’ll check it out!
