The Dino Bag

Looks even better on the street than it does on the runway, don't you think? Lust has increased tenfold.

I look just like Buddy Holly.

Today marks the 51st anniversary of Buddy Holly's death, otherwise known as "The Day the Music Died". We're pretty tight, Buddy and I. We share the same hometown (Lubbock, TX), and I visited the Buddy Holly Center, like, ten times growing up. They handed out fake glasses with those thick black frames that everyone loves. I thought they were pretty super geeky at the time. If you don't know much about Buddy Holly and his music, I suggest you go read up on him, or at least watch how this woman introduces him on the Arthur Murray Dance Party in 1957. You youngsters and your crazy rock 'n' roll music...

"For a lot of the youth today, with 50 years of popular music behind them, it's sometimes hard to understand Buddy Holly's music. But at the time, it pinned a lot of people against the wall. It was unique. He was a real rebel, a real punk." -James Allen

Snow, Snow, Snow

It snowed all weekend. I wore my (faux) fur all weekend. 'Twas the only thing that could keep me warm. We Southerners don't know how to dress for your winter weather. We think it's really pretty, though. Other weekend highlights included band practice, meeting a nice cop, cleaning my apartment, Akutagawa, a John Hughes mini-marathon, writing a fantastic short story in my head (and then promptly forgetting it once I fell asleep), showering once, and watching Drake perform at the Grammys.

Here's to driving to class on the ice tomorrow morning.

And Iggy Pop. Of course.

And Speaking of Fur...

Nobody does it better than Ann D. Check out the rest of her Fall 2010 menswear collection here.

Charming

Do I like Charlotte Ronson? No. Do I like this video ? Yes. Beautiful shots of beautiful people having fun in a beautiful city. It's hard to resist.

Burberry Menswear Fall 2010

Yes. Yes. YES. Men NEED to wear (faux) fur. Upon viewing this collection I immediately purchased a black faux fur peacoat off Ebay, though I was kind of worried that I wouldn't get a chance to wear it this season since it's been about sixty degrees for the past week or so. But as I ran out the door on my way to my first class this morning... it started snowing? Gotta love Tennessee weather. (No, you really don't have to.)
