WTF!

Alexander McQueen has committed suicide. R.I.P.

In shock. One of the biggest names in fashion.

Dear MTV.COM's Internet Video Department:


Please revert back to your old video model design. Your new one which buffers to available bandwidth instead of best quality settings downgrades your entire library of music videos. You are now at the level of youtube in video quality which places you in a corporate identity crisis. I've always looked to mtv.com to watch my music videos for the level of industry high standard in which the music videos were intended to be seen. Instead now I am watching any videos shot before the HD/RED Camera boom (circa 2008) pixelated or interlaced. You've now limited your collection of high quality videos to about 2-3 years of history. Is this still Music Television in the digital/internet age at its best?

The sculpture and embodiment of human form will always be there unless someone burns the wax away.

You know, I'd really like to talk with the designer of this by Givenchy

What? What?! Is her head supposed to look super tiny? Like there's something really disproportionate with her? Looks like a little, jaded girl in a giant mannequin.

Who Have Long, Successful Careers Ahead Of Them:
Scarlett Johansson, Natalie Portman, Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt, Keira Knightley, Evan Rachel Wood, Ellen Page, Kirsten Dunst

Side-note: Come on, you know they're good. They make pretty good decisions.


Have A Lot Of Potential If They Pick Good Projects That Show Their Range:
Kristen Bell, Abigail Breslin, Ginnifer Goodwin, Hayden Panettiere, Emma Watson, Blake Lively

Side-note: I love Ginnifer Goodwin. I saw her in "Mona Lisa Smile"; she was good. Phenomenal in "Walk The Line". But I haven't seen too much of her and she needs to pick it up. I think Emma Watson can make it. I can visualize it. Let's hope her agent can too.


Can't Deny They're Good But Either Needs More Range Or The Right Films:
America Ferrera, Jennifer Hudson, Ziyi Zhang, Rosario Dawson

Side-note: I know, I know. I put all the actresses of different ethnicity in here but that's what I honestly feel about it. I want more. They have to give me more. I mean come on, you have to admit that Zhang Ziyi always does the same character time and time again or at least acts like she does.


Why The Fuck Is She On This List:
Miley Cyrus

Side-note: Do I have to make myself more clear?


Personal Favorites:
Natalie Portman, Emily Blunt, Keira Knightley, Evan Rachel Wood, Ellen Page, Kristen Bell, Ginnifer Goodwin, Kirsten Dunst, Emma Watson

fabrics fabrics

Fall 2008 Collections - NYC Fashion Week
-ones I liked-

Betsey Johnson

Catherine Malandrino

Doo.Ri

Halston

Jill Stuart



John Varvatos



Luca Luca

Malo

Max Azria

Oscar de la Renta


Peter Som

Ports 1961

Proenza Schouler




Some Notes:
  • What is up with Jill Stuart's huge gloves in her new collection?
  • And I would've chosen a few more dresses from Max Azria's collection except each of them had something I didn't like about them. For example, a couple of them had a fabric draped like a leaf over the shoulder or this out of place hat on the model.
