“It’s All About Paris Bitches”
In all my thousand years on Earth, I have not felt such a palpable energy about Paris Fashion Week. With Lanvin so breathtaking, Rick Owens beyond cool and Balenciaga so interesting, I am green with envy at the editors sitting front row at the upcoming Yves Saint Laurent and Christian Dior shows.

But like all good things, and I include both of those shows, they die out. If Seinfeld and Mary Tyler Moore can overstay their welcome, believe me, these gals have too. But since Tyra is a fighter and since she is all college graduated and shizz, you can bet someone else’s bottom dollar and Miss Tyra is not going to go down… Read More »

Maybe Barbie has all the answers. Perhaps she is the real litmus test for how women will evolve in this next generation.
