Internets Jessica Quirk Jessica Schroeder Quirk, scarving expert, is showing Lincoln Center how true scarfness is achieved with this simple outfit. This season’s latest shade of Sad Salmon perfectly blends with black. But of course let’s not forget the one must have accessory for every woman: Keep on being fashion, catladies! David Karp, super important celebrity, took his little tax deduction Rachel to the Standard for his Valentine’s day. How do we know this? Because Karp posted sexy pics of his sexy sex hipster accessory: No Rachel, you TOTALLY won’t regret these pics being all over tumblr if you two break up. By the way, nice Louboutins. I thought you were going to college, but I guess students these days can afford 3,000 dollar shoes. Otherwise I hope you sent those venture capital companies a nice thank you note for giving your boyfriend all that money to spend with you!
Because there aren’t enough mediocre women doing their best “Scarecrow from Wizard of Oz” pose blogs out there, Jordan Reid has now decided to jump on the style blog train: The announcement I mentioned last week: Ramshackle Glam – along with several other great blogs including Keiko Lynn, Cupcakes & Cashmere, and My Style Pill – has partnered up with AOL Stylelist. So excited about all the fun collaborations coming up! AOL will pretty much throw money at anything at this point, and that Cupcakes chick is involved with every single thing that promises some self-promotion, so pardon me if I’m not blown away by Jordan’s “collaborations” here. Frankly, I’d rather talk about what in the HELL is going on with Kenny’s looks? Is working an office job destroying him that quickly? Mary Rambin, inventor of fashion week blogging, posted yesterday what is becoming her routine contribution to the style party: While the fashionistas are fighting the crowd at the tents and watching regurgitated trends parade down the runway, I’ll be curled up with this guy…Thinking about renting The Education… My ensemble will include way-out-of style velour pants and an over-sized cashmere sweater. Apologies to those of who still remember and inquire about my livestreams. I’m really glad you enjoyed my endless hours of commenting, mingling, and moments of shear exhaustion/bortchiness. Honestly, my absence is not due to a complete disinterest in Fashion Week. I couldn’t secure a sponsor or a job to take me there. I wish at this point MTM was enough to fuel the coverage, but that’s not the case. But! I will be warm, my feet won’t be throbbing, and I can keep my backstage lounge bullsh!t safely stored away with my overcoats. (BTW, this Pinot Noir really is brilliant – medium bodied, wonderful cherry flavor, and silky smooth.) Such a disappointment for her thousands of readers who write in begging for her coverage. Readers like “donya”, who commented: Oh dear. One of these posts again? Mary, must they come each season? Stop feeling sorry for yourself! We get it: you can’t secure sponsors anymore but you don’t care and yet you kinda do. Fine. But this is just sad. And pretending you get a ton of mail each season before the shows missing your coverage is just ridiculous. You clearly don’t–your coverage was sub-par and everyone knows it. EXCUSE ME? I see you are tired of Mary’s posts about how she won’t be at fashion week. Maybe you should take those comments elsewhere! Mary says it better in her response: There are websites with readers who feel the same way you do. Perhaps you’d enjoy their content and comments more than MTM. In response to your comment – of course I’m disappointed. I’m a real person with feelings. Perhaps you don’t realize that as you sling insults into cyberspace. Can someone explain to me what part of donya’s comment was intended as an insult? A reader is tired of hearing you complain that you aren’t going to fw, felt your coverage was not all that good anyway, and said so. I don’t see any “you’re a stupid fat ugly bortch cow watersloth with doody breath” in there. Anyway we can all stop holding our breath – nobody will be seeing Mary at fashion week. I’m sure Anna Wintour is deeply crushed, but there just isn’t enough funding for all the blogs you see. Maybe Mary should move her blog over to tumblr! As day one of NYFW kicks off and people pour into seats, tumblr still hasn’t done anything with their New York Fashion Week page. Ah well, it’s only 9:30 am. I’m sure it will be up shortly! UPDATE: http://www.tumblr.com/nyfw now directs to http://www.tumblr.com/tagged/nyfw so it is basically just displaying anything tagged NYFW. Another underwhelming conclusion from tumblr. Since it worked out so well for Gawker, Jessica Quirk unveiled a new design for her tumblr. As you know, nothing says “modern” and “trend aware” like soft drop shadows and slightly rotated pics. She also decided to apply the nap inducing font of her book website, and while it is easier to read than that script font she had, it is boring and doesn’t exactly scream “I am a creative and interesting individual”. At least she finally wrote a new blurb: So yeah, whatever. This is obviously just a redesign centered around pushing her book, but still you would think she and @quirk would have put more than a weekend into this. Mary Rambin, first person to liveblog fashion week, has BREAKING NEWS: And in case you forget that Mary does everything before everyone else, she wraps up her tumblr post with this little aside: (Side note: I received this news FIRST from Anthony on Twitter, at least 10 minutes before Mashable posted it.) Got that? She was THE FIRST to get the story of AOL buying HuffPo, except for all the other people who heard it before her.
