The Murse of the Century

pbirkin.jpgStyle icon Pharrell Williams reveals on his Billionaire Boys Club blog that he recently popped in Hermes to snatch up his custom-made purple alligator Birkin. Fierce. "Murses," or man-purses, often get ridiculed for looking doofusy or feminine, but when your boy bag is a Birkin -- with an accessory from Jacob the Jeweler attached -- even I have to gag. I mean, apart from the fabulousness of going into the Hermes workshop, you know a guy's style and confidence is off the charts when he's rocking a purple purse.

This is totally off topic, but where is your blogger named Wendy? I have really enjoyed her posts also and I haven't seen anything from her lately.

The entire focus of this blog has undergone a subtle shift lately and I was trying to figure out the reason. In the past, this has been my favorite fashion news blog.

I agree, it makes me sad because this blog used to be witty high-fashion and I couldn't wait to read it every day. It used to really stand above the rest and I would recommend it to all my friends. It's hard to put my finger on what's changed but now it feels like incessant valley-girl ramblings. The new blog posts just lack a certain level of class. I think that's it. The videos are horrible as well- could that Puma interview have been any duller?
Julie- I did read that Wendy is on maternity leave so hopefully she'll be back soon. You can blog and breastfeed, right ?

Pharell just has the same self satisfied smirk so many pseudo celebs have these days. OVER AND EXPOSED.

??? What is wrong with you, are you that old, conservative, ignorant, men-hating??? Why can't you accept the variaty of fashion??? Can't something be different? Why do you like women's fashion gone masculine, but you hate new things in men's fashion???

Quote of the Day

“Well, I, uh - I read in The New York Times this week that I'm an ice queen, I'm the Sun King, I'm an alien fleeing from District 9 and I'm a dominatrix. So I reckon that makes me a lukewarm royalty with a whip from outer space.”
