My sister, Filthy McNasty, once told me that she hated Lagerfeld Thursday.  Obviously she said this because she doesn't own anything Chanel. Because if she owned a quilted bag, she would understand.

I constantly stare at CNN while I'm sweating away the oldies on the elliptical, but of course the one time when I'm not paying attention, they show this:



A couple of things about this...ONE: Why did this nobody get to hang out with Karl for weeks? Life is so unfair. TWO: You have to admit, Karl is one funny guy. THREE: I really want that washer/dryer now. FOUR: Still dying over the KL Coke bottles. Why are they not in the states?? FIVE: Please note how they emphasize my Chanel sparkly coat I want from this year's collection. SIX: A KARL PERFUME? Two words ya'll: christmas list.

XOXO,

you can tell he is dirty

With every new story about Prince Harry, I become even more outrageously jealous. Why, in god's name, is he out in California and not in DC. I mean, we have helicopters too! I think it’s a government conspiracy. Somebody somewhere was worried about us meeting and falling in love and our red hair engulfing in flames and making little red headed babies and....we'll I've gone off track.

Harry landed in America and took off for San Diego.  He went to a bar where he was "a delight to serve and a big tipper". Uh...I am too, but I highly doubt that Brad the bartender would be so complimentary. The latest in royal theatrics, our boy wonder apparently saved a drowning damsel in distress. Actually, he put a towel around her, but to People mag, he is an honest to goodness hero. This alleged "Lindsey" sounds like a tramp to me. Who tells news outlets about this?  If Harry even came within an inch of me I would probably pass out. But seriously. I would gab to my girlfriends but hell if I would call up the Washington Post and tell them how he looked my way. (note: I had written something dirty here, but because we are speaking about royals and I am a lady, I deleted it).

And just so we get the full visual of Harry at a pool:

You're welcome America.

XOXO,
Princess Bunny von Bulow

giambattista valli for macy's

There is a great line in the movie "Bad Santa". After the kid finds a halloween candy corn in his advent calendar, Billy Bob Thornton tells him, "they can't all be winners".  The same can be said for Giambattista Valli's collection for Macy's.

Unlike the Karl Lagerfeld collection who had 45 pieces, this collection has 17. And they are all dresses. Don't get me wrong - it's cute. But Karl's stuff seemed to scream KARL. This collection seems to scream upscale-bridge-and-tunnel-trash.  But maybe it's just me....

I was actually looking forward to see his work after seeing his latest collection on the runway.  I know they need to be "budget friendly", but I expected something...cuter.

XOXO,
Bunny

stop the presses

I hope everyone had a nice day off celebrating Columbus or some shit. IDK. I didn't have today off so I don't really care what you did.

Nothing has really come from the day except another item has been added to the christmas list (are you listening filthy mcnasty??), though I need it immediately.

Ladies and gentlemen, I give you this: http://nymag.com/daily/fashion/2011/10/best_bet_karl_lagerfeld_print.html?mid=377380&rid=122976821

Thank you NYTimes and Fauxnna Wintour.

sunny days, sweeping the clouds away

This "work" thing is really getting in the way of gossip, fashion reading and blog posting. I'm stressed beyond belief, I'm pretty sure I have kidney stones and my goal of being sugary-sweet nice crashed and burned very early on in the week. This week was filled with 4 CEOs who complained about everything and then there's the one who comes next week, who sits on the board and comes with  high strung lackeys, one of them being the infamous Baby Boy and his crime fighting partner, White Bread, whose super power must be dressing badly because she's killer at it. I keep expecting Ashton Kutcher to stop cheating on Demi and tell me I'm being punked at work because most of the day I feel like look around with an incredulous stare on my face that says "you've got to be kidding me". Maybe this is where the kidney stones have come from. It's

definitely where the heavy drinking has come from.

I've missed countless (2) Lagerfeld Thursdays much to my dismay. I didn't even give him a proper write up about the Chanel show earlier this week. The horror. Well let me paint the scene for you...close your eyes and imagine that it's a crisp 70 degrees on a spring day 2012. The faint hum of Sebastian from the little mermaid is singing under the sea, there are pearls...pastels...and boucle. His theme was under the sea and once you realized that you can kind of see where his brilliance was going. Ok...not really. I only get that on maybe 5 or 6 of the outfits. The rest seem to have no theme at all. Lots of white dresses with geometric shapes. If Stella Tennant looks bad in the dress, then I'm probably sure everyone in the world would bad.
I kind of died with the iridescence boucle jacket and I kind of want it for christmas. Though I'm not sure if people would mistake me for a fish or a traffic sign. And if anyone just thought "Bunny = big mouth bass" well you can go to hell right now.

In the craziness of the week, and most important, I forgot to publicly wish my friend, work mother, the grand dame of all the dames a happy birthday!! I mean, I've been begging for a good stomach flu for a couple months (week off work, no gym, and a good 15 lbs lost) and yet the person who already weighs 84 lbs gets it. Life is just so unfair.

XOXO,
Bunny

a couple more things...

1. Here ye, here ye. Prince Harry is coming to America for helicopter training. Get excited if you live in CA or AZ. He is, by far, the hottest red head out there.

2. Did anyone watch Modern Family last night. Ya'll seriously. This show killllllls me. When Cam did his Streetcar Named Desire bit, I almost fell off the couch.

3. Because of MF last night, now I'm thinking about naming my unborn daughter Blanche....though if I could get away with it I would fully name her Blanche Hollingsworth.

4. Free Agents has been canceled. SO SAD. I really liked the first episode, but last night's seemed like a chore to watch. How is Up All Night still on the air?

5. My DVR is backed up beyond belief, but I did catch Project Runway's (what happened to Andre?) Chris March's show on Bravo, Mad Fashion.  Truly creative people leave me in awe. I could have never come up with half the stuff he did.

6. I caught 15 minutes of the show after Chris', Fashion Hunters or something like that, and it was awful. The main girl was beyond vapid. I couldn't even watch the whole show.

7. Saw "What's your number" this past weekend with Anna Farris and Chris Evans. It was so bad. So, so bad. Which is why I want my new job to be a movie reader. You give me the script, put together a 3 minute clip using a diorama and some play dough and I'll tell you whether people will watch.  There is no need to waste money like this.

8. I cannot stop quoting Clueless lately.  I've hurt my back somehow and I constantly keep saying "even fabian my masseuse says I have a lot of tension in my back." It makes me feel better...its my happy place.

9. During previews for that awful movie we saw this weekend, they showed the new Footloose clip.  Christ almighty. If I was Le Bacon, I would sue.  There was no reason on god's green earth they should have remade this movie. It's a classic. Would you remake Gone with the Wind or Casablanca? No. Because that's just crazy talk.

XOXO,
Bunny

it's been a hell of a week

It's only Wednesday and already I am in serious need of an IV of vodka stat. Sorry I have been MIA for the past 3 days, but just when I think things are going to ease up the flood gates of crazy unleash and posting becomes the furthest thing from my mind.  I hope to have some stuff for you tomorrow, but in the mean time here are some quick, easy, painless bullets.

* Take a look at this Josh Charles montage the Fug Girls did. 17 photos of nothing but Josh...if you cut his girlfriend out.

* There is an endless sea of pretty coming out of Paris.  Chanel, Hermes, Alexander McQueen, Miu Miu all are incredible.  The Valentino is just bat shit amazing. Even if you are a straight guy, check it out. It's perfection and there are boobs.

* Talk of Arrested Development returning has made my week and I need an immediate rewatch to start with my everyday quotes.
