My one and only experience with blonde: during the Kurt Cobain years, I had the two front strands of my (medium brunette) hair bleached, and would let them hang down to my shoulders while the rest was slicked straight back into a ponytail. (Of course I also wore only Levis 560s and flannel, but you know)

@wring: Oh yeah, Felicity will play her in the "Miss Potter"-ized movie version, the script for which must surely be circulating somewhere by now.

Actually, yeah, that is a stellar trench coat, lfw1031

Despite the fact that not everyone agrees with each other (or perhaps because of it), I'm so glad that this conversation is happening. Perhaps 100 and some-odd crimes will be prevented because we've been forced to think about this.

@vivresavie17: Actually, I immediately remembered the spy beetles from the first book.

She has the Jocelyn Wildenstein stretched-lip/freaky-cheekbone thing going on.

A magazine-editor friend gave me a La Mer gift set he got for free. Little .01 oz bottles of the original stuff, the eye cream, and the hand lotion. I have one or two more swabs of the moisturizer left and then...oh god, so ashamed, so broke...but I'm going to buy a jar.

@collegecallgirl: Also, how much do you bet that many of those people are writing out of misplaced guilt, Larry Craig-style. They secretly want you/want to be you.

@flackette: She's had to! Every freakin' celeb (and every single one of my coworkers, it seems like) is pregnant these days. I'm not buying J.Lo or Christina A's denials for one second.

*tentative voice* Um...I like Dove products? They're not too expensive and they make my skin, hair, and yes, pits, nice and soft. Dove is the only soap I can use near my ladyparts that doesn't cause horrible itching. So, yay, Dove. More reason to buy them.

@girlfromthenorthcountry: I was just about to say the same thing. I always thought he was cute. He was in that comedy group... can't remember what they were called.

Arg! Since when is spontaneity in dating considered "the bums rush"? I mean, it's been a while since I've been on a date (whine whine), but don't people still occasionally ask each other out on a whim?

That kid looks EXACTLY like Benioff.

You know, it's interesting. I have a stressful job that I don't really like. I've lived in NYC for 5 years, with all the annoyances that entails: a 2 hour-per-day commute, constant noise/traffic/people, impossible standards of beauty, ridiculous prices, etc. I have constant "when is my real life gonna start?"…

$20 handbags rock. Then you can have lots and lots. I have one for every mood.

My eyes are burning from the clashing patterns.

@ceejeemcbeegee: I agree. The fact that she's obviously preggers but hasn't announced it has me concerned for her/the baby's health.

LOVE the dress (except HATE the sleeves). I'm totally copying that eye makeup look.

Oh I am SO cracking open a bottle of wine for this tonight.

Won't someone teach her to stand up straight?
