Things I Love Thursday


[i love september birthdays, including mine, which went most marvellously. thanks to gala, whose birthday is also in september--go go virgo power--and who thought up TiLT.]

THINGS I LOVE CURRENTLY INCLUDE:

The Proliferation of Fashiony Guys - Skinny shorts, Euro shoes (you know what I mean - canvas boat shoes or tennies or bucks)...I really thought that these trends were runway-only, but I'm shocked to see them actually showing up on the streets. The UK's Daily Mail has noticed too: "Queues at dawn. Frenzied grabbing at the racks. Waiting lists. Hysteria over the latest seasonal It-bag. Welcome to the world of fashion lovers. Except, it's not just the ladies any more: It's the men, too. Fine and dandy: how men are muscling in on the fashion scene." I know this probably gets laughs, but I actually think, whether or not I love skinny shorts (I don't), it's pretty awesome that more guys are finally feeling more OK about showing an interest in their clothes.

Fabulous Fashion Bloggers - Aww, this Glamour article on fashion bloggers and what they would wear on a first date is adorable (and way stylish, naturally). I was worried that they'd all choose the same kind of outfit with the requisite Nine West Heech sandals, etc., but I was wonderfully wrong. These ladies have some awesome getups. I would totally ask them on second dates. If I were on the first date. And if I dated girls. But anyway, cute Winona from DaddyLikey is in it, and my fave outfit might be that of Nabila from SuperNab.

Britney Looking Hot Again (Albeit Still Trashy) - Thank god the world has returned to its normal orbit after several years of being knocked askew by Britney Spears' tragic descent into total insanity and a pit of Cheetos. Look at her recently! Those familiar old abs are so comforting. That's the slutty star I know and love. I even love her outfit, because it's sort of on the way back to her old ridiculous ways (versus her more recent sweats-and-extensions look during The Crazy Era). The hideous, janky cowboy boots are still hanging around (why does this girl wear the most awful boots - these and a matching darker brown pair were like ALL SHE WORE during Project Insanity), and she should really go investigate what happened to the acres of stilettos she once owned. Homegirl, welcome back. Mad props.

[thanks, us weekly]

The "Fabulous Fashion Bloggers" was a great post! Most outfits were great for a 1st date, but if it was me, I would def wear dark skinny jeans, a cute and sexy black top and maybe red flat shoes :) :)

Re: Fabulous Fashion Bloggers, I LOVE Monika from Monikulus' outfit (as well as many others, but hers struck me as the most... ummm... me), and the one Winona from DaddyLikey is wearing totally reminds me of Erin. Except she'd need a giant necklace to go with that amazing giant watch.
