Jessica Quirk, fashion icon and house hunter, has evidently figured out that banks do not consider playing dress up an actual job. They seem to have put their house buying plan on hold and acquired an apartment instead. Once again a perfectly mundane event is cause for multiple exclamation points. Does this mean thatsquirky.com, the rarely updated website supposedly built around the idea of being married in Broomcloset and buying a house, is history?

Josh Davis, aka Mr. Taza, appears to be reinventing himself. Like every other 20-something who watched David Karp happen, Mr. Taza seems to have dreams of becoming some kind of tech company "founder". Thus, "Pippit" exists. From what can be surmised, Pippit is some kind of iPhone app that may or may not basically be Instagram with a reblog feature or some kind of pinterest type app. "Oh Joy" is speculated to be involved somehow, and the Pippit twitter follow list seems to indicate something similar. Just what New York needs - yet another guy trying to be a tech...

I KNOW, but it was just out there, I had to use it. Anyway, with allegations of theft and scamming floating around, the Bernie Madoff of Anthro-blogging has decided to cut off the story at the pass and issued this bizarre "lol sorry": An Apology I want to take a minute to apologize. I messed up and I owe it to my readers to apologize. As you may recall, I used to run a Personal Shopping Service on this blog. I am not going to make excuses, but I really dropped the ball and screwed things up with some of...

Peyton Baxter named her daughter something 'fitting for a fashionista baby' - Bradshaw. As in, that character from a show that went off the air like 20 years ago.

Jennifer McKinney, the former Mycharmingkids.net, was forced by the Lord Himself more than 4 months ago to pay off her debts. Now, just days after her blog has finally gone offline, Mckdrama has signed a "waiver of discharge" and apparently agreed to pay off her creditors. Blogger type Tracy says the bankruptcy "was almost certainly going to be denied anyway", and is of the opinion that they "probably agreed to this in the hope that criminal charges would not be forthcoming" regarding possible attempts to deceive the bankruptcy court. Regardless of the reasons, this is a pretty snooze inducing outcome...

Breast cancer activists around the internet are waving pitchforks at Etsy, the "indie" internet shopping site popular among twee and wannatwee bloggers, for joining in the October retail ritual of "pinkwashing". It seems Etsy sent out a promotional email with the tagline "Tickled Pink: Show your love to the women in your life with Breast Cancer Awareness Month",  featuring all pink products in several categories. The problem seems to be that only a few of the items have anything to do with Breast Cancer research or awareness. Blogger "Pink Goose" writes: "Etsy’s lack of ethics and oversight is bad enough.
