Holy crap! Joan Van Ark looks like she’s been laid out in the dessert for a few days. Moisturize before someone skins you and uses the leather to make a handbag! Gabsmash
Cashmere Mafia gets whacked from the TV schedule? It must be bad if ABC would rather show repeats. Fashionista
The Loden Dager collection for Uniqlo leaves us cold. Hopefully, Tim Hamilton’s will be better. men.style.com

We’ve always loved Snoopy because he had attitude. He rolled his eyes at the humans and did whatever he wanted. We were precocious tots and thought he was awesome for sticking his tongue out behind Lucy’s back.
The geniuses at MetLife have figured out that just about everyone loves Snoopy and a lot of people like fashion, so maybe some of those people might buy insurance during New York Fashion Week. Yeah, a stretch, but thanks to them for their ‘Snoopy In Fashion’ runway show, featuring Project Runway‘s Laura Bennett, Jeremy Scott (off-topic: why is he not as famous as Marc Jacobs?), Heatherette, Betsey Johnson, Isaac Mizrahi and more.
By the way, if you want a taste of fab 80’s fashion featuring Snoopy, find yourself a copy of the original hardcover Snoopy In Fashion.
We’re totally jazzed for the next Keanan Duffty for Target collection for men. Target tends to overlook the guys when it comes to their designer collaborations (not that we didn’t buy some Libertine anyway!), but this collection more than makes up for it.
Inspired by rock icon David Bowie’s Ziggy Stardust period, the collection includes jeans with lightning bolts on the pockets, close-cropped vests and a black trenchcoat. So right for fall.
Debuts in October in select Target stores.
Have you seen the new Hermes watch collection? Some brainiac at the French luxury house finally realized that they were selling crap and redesigned the whole collection. We’re jonesing for the new men’s size Cape Cod with the double-tour leather band. Hmm… rent or watch, rent or watch?
Hermes Cape Cod watch, $1800

Canal Jeans, where we spent our formative New York years buying countless Army bags, vintage 501’s and camel overcoats, has shut its doors. An impromptu trip to the store’s latest location near NYU shocked us– doors locked, store nearly empty and a sad handwritten “Closed” sign taped to the door. *Sigh.*
Stylist Rachel Zoe, she responsible for making every desperate starlet look like an over-made-up waif from the travelling company of Oliver! had this to say about Vogue editor Anna Wintour:
“Anna Wintour is one of my heroes, but they say I’m more influential. As great as it is, Vogue won’t change a designer’s business. But if an unknown brand is worn by a certain person in a tabloid, it will be the biggest designer within a week.”
Puh-lease! Anna will chew you up for breakfast and won’t puke you back out. It’s on, bitch!

J. Crew has just marked down even more fabulous stuff. Our favorite is the twisted classic Jack Purcell sneakers in a washed camo fabric, just $19.99.
Ever pick up an issue of Harper’s Bazaar and say to yourself “Christ, what does the editor in chief of this piece of crap actually do all day?” (We do, once a month.) Mediabistro asked the tough questions and it turns out Glenda starts her day “early… 9 o’clock, 8 o’clock for previews” and reads a lot of magazines. Hey, sounds like our job!
On a side note, tell us that Glenda doesn’t look like Stephen Fry in Bernadette Peters drag.
