Old, Older
I’m not an online video watcher, but sometimes I see so many mentions about a particular clip that I cave. I finally clicked on Gawker’s “Jay-Z Rides the Subway, Adorably Explains Who He Is to […]
Distractions
Booties Call
Am I going to have to go all Middle Ages on style blogs' asses? These are not kitten heels! At least Anthropologie knows what's up (I don't even like kitten heels really, but they keep […]
