“I Mean…What?!?” – Abe Gurko

All I can say is that the new Vogue Paris cover featuring model, Giselle Bundchen, is the best news. They tend to anyway, but with Emmanuelle Alt at the helm of the pub since the abrupt resignation from Carine Roitfeld, I am glad that some things don’t change. The worst part of most American fashion magazine are their covers. Excuse me, Jennifer Hudson is a lovely girl and Jennifer Aniston is best served on the small screen, but please, leave most Jennifers off the covers of Vogue and that includes Jennifer Garner, who I think is stunning. What can I… Read More »

There are things that happen in life that I call God shots. This is when Mother Nature proves her strength and man is brought to his knees. It gives us pause to remember how fleeting life is and to value every moment and appreciate our time on Earth. This morning reading The Huffington Post, I was overwhelmed with sadness for the people of Japan affected by the earthquake. I lived through the Northridge Earthquake in Los Angeles back in 1994, and was woken up by the monstrous sound of moving Earth coupled with the crashing of shattering glass. Sure, I… Read More »

Oy vey. There is a reality show for everyone and a jewlery or fashion line, as well. That said, I came across these lovely baubles that will launch on HSN, that fashion channel for mavens, that I wanted to share them with you. I have one word for this: Help! These treasures are from the new Gastineau Glamour collection from those perky reality show stars Brittny and her mamma bear Lisa Gastineau. The good news? Bethenny Frankel and Jill Zarin have a long prosperous future. Wait, did I say good news? Shoot me. Clearly, every Housewife ever will end up… Read More »

The video shows that Miley Cyrus has had just about enough crap from everyone, especially the paparazzi. I say, you go, girl. Look at the comments that people have for Miley Cyrus who sticks up for her mom at this recent quagmire. She is dynamic and everyone else can just buzz off. RECENT MILEY ACTION: Would everyone just leave Miley Cyrus alone? She is forever getting trashed in the media about how she lives her life. Yoo, hoo. She is having the time of her life away from those needy parents of hers. She’s my new Lindsay Lohan….sans legal trouble…so… Read More »

Hot off the rumor mill! Riccardo Tisci is replacing John Galliano at the House of Dior. Really? But Carine Roitfeld will be the resident stylist. Double really? As you know, I am all about Haider Ackermann, and my suggestion was for him to replace Galliano. But the world surely does not revolve around me and what I think. Anyhoo, I’d like to think that Haider has an unofficial deal in place with Karl Lagerfeld to follow him at Chanel, so why go to Dior? Especially with all the fashion bitches, claws out, ready to trash next season’s collection, no matter… Read More »

When I say the Kim Sisters, I do not mean Kim and Khloe Kardashian or Kim and Kourtney Kardashian. No, when I refer to the Kim Sisters, I mean the two singing Kims. Well, OK, they are not actual sisters but they may as well be twins when you listen to their music. I am talking about Kim Kardashian and her identical sounding twin sister, Kim Zolciak, from The Real Housewives of Atlanta “fame”. Don’t know what the hell I am talking about? Well, listen for yourself and you tell me that Kim K. and Kim Z. are not two… Read More »

UPDATE March 8, 2011: It’s official: black IS back! Don’t believe me? Check out the dark mood at Chanel. We all know that Karl Lagerfeld rules the fashion roost worldwide. So, if Karl says “Black uber alles” then so it is. And, from the looks of his somewhat over stuffed collection, black is here and hopefully to stay. When I say overstuffed, I mean the quilted, unflattering jumpsuits that will never live on the streets, but just in the magazines. For now, I am reveling in Black Power! March 7, 2011: For the past few seasons, fashion editors have been… Read More »

The past few days while Charlie Sheen has been monopolizing the airwaves, the happy homemakers, Sarah (Cross-Hair) Palin and Michele (Cross-Eyed) Bachmann have been doing their darndest to get some face time on the boob tube. Naturally, Fox News to the rescue, where Ms. Blabbermouth #1 has been spewing venomous insults about the Obama Administration, while her potential Presidential rival Ms. Blabbermouth #2 was doing the same. The slanderous comments such as “Gangster Government” is so racially motivated, that it makes John Galliano look like Mother Teresa. Now, these two bimbettes have synced up their talking points to the point… Read More »

Something wonderful happened in the aftermath of writing that story, What The Gap Needs Now Is Love Sweet Love. The next day—after my article had gone viral…… Read More »
