I thought Id share a piece of writing that I find heartwrenchingly beautiful, and sadly rather more relevant to my life than Id like to acknowledge, because I know that some of you are also avid read...

Heres another awesome band I just found out about and have been jamming non-stop since my friend sent me their 2008 self-titled album. True Widow is a three-piece band from Dallas, Texas, self-define...
Im going to hope that my readers dont have their heads buried so far up their own asses that they arent aware of the historic events taking place in the Middle East right now, most crucially in Egypt...
Sorry ladies, Im still on a menswear kick. Ive found some lovely black, asymmetrical, drapey things to share with you. You can never have enough of those...or maybe thats just me. Now I have to admit...
I havent been paying much attention to seasonal collections for the better part of the past year. Im still not, really, except when I see an occasional picture that makes me go "Ooh, whats this?&...
My last post left off with lazy me sleeping until mid-afternoon, and only having made good on one of my New Years resolutions. Ive got two more to go. When I finally dragged my sleep-hungover self ou...
Im not usually one for making New Years resolutions, I think theyre rather silly because no one follows through with them anyway and then they feel worse for not having done so, but this year I made ...
Just a quick note that Complex Geometries is having a one-day sale on Thursday, January 13th. I wont be buying anything because Im attempting to see how long I can conserve my holiday gift money...wh...
Sometimes I worry that true post-punk music died with the 80s. The stuff that gets passed off as post-punk nowadays is not, in my opinion, and despite being highly derivative I can barely detec...
Its a new year and so Ive decided to relent and resurrect my old blog. Ive been toying with the idea for a while, and am finally giving in and letting this thing have a second chance, a rare op...
A few days ago, I found an entry on Extra Skinny, concerning a rather curious army surplus belt. This belt, which may not actually be a belt, reminded me that for quite some time now I've had a...
A couple days ago, the new Black Milk Clothing collection was released. I want to say "Finally!" but actually it wasn't that long of a wait. Apparently this is only Part 1, and there are ...
Have you all seen the Versace Spring 2010 Lookbook with Kasia Struss? What am I talking about, of course you have, and I am just way behind the times as usual. I'm almost literally drooli...
It's come to my attention that the comment buttons on certain blogs, including mine, have been glitchy recently, and not working for some people. If you've experienced any problems with this, I...
Everyone's saying Nicholas Kunz has gone "Urban Nomad" for Fall 2010. I have this kind of knee-jerk reaction whenever "urban nomad" gets applied to anything with a disheveled, grungy look. &nbs...
On the menu today is a Waldorf Salad. Actually, the main meal of the day is going to be sushi and sashimi, I just whipped this salad up to hold me over until dinner time, when I will most defin...
I'm sorry for being so frivolous, but I must own these shoes. I don't care how much they cost. Or that they look like bastardized Doc Martens. I must have them. And I will wea...
A certain pair of illuminated Rodarte shoes, the sophisticated woman's version of those stupid L.A. Lights sneakers everyone was running around in when I was a kid, has brought to my attention t...
I'm not sure if it's really worthwhile posting menswear here, since my readers, and fashion bloggers in general, are predominantly female. I'm also more discriminating when it comes to liking m...
Nothing too cerebral today, I just wanted to mention how much I love these designs from Sharon Wauchob's Fall 2010 collection. The subtle jewel tones in dip-dyed chiffon are absolute perfection...
The wonderfully vindicating, and often frustrating, thing about being unfashionable is that eventually whatever "stylish" people once ridiculed you for wearing will become the latest trend and they'l...
I promised more recipes would be forthcoming, but I haven't been doing much cooking lately. In the winter, I eat mostly sushi, kimchi stew, Indian take-out, and bean or lentil soups. Not ...
I doubt the gratuitous chalk powder on certain A.F. Vandevorst designs for Fall/Winter 2010 is an homage to the cornstarch-enhanced performances of Nine Inch Nails, but I'm going to pretend it is...b...
As a general rule, I hate when designers try to go global by stuffing as many ethnic accents as they can into one season's collection. The end result usually looks more like a child's indiscrim...
Alexander McQueen's last collection. Absolutely breathtaking, but looking at it feels like rubbing salt in a wound.
This is a heads-up to all my lovely readers. Sometime in the next couple of days I will be changing the name and url address of this blog. The blog will be exactly the same, it's not goin...
My apologies for the sparsity of posts lately. I've been dealing with some minor family crises and just trying to manage real life schtuff in general. I'm going to break with tradition he...
Aeons ago, when I was a mopey baby übergoth, I rebelled against my own kind. The business of selling uniform anti-conformity, à la Hot Topic and Lip Service, seemed immensely hypocritical and suspici...
Still procrastinating. Making the best of the incumbent blizzard by cozying up on the sofa with a relaxing cup of Egyptian licorice tea and the tales of H.P. Lovecraft. I've been praying ...
