"More is more. Less is never more - less is obviously less. Who wants less??"


Ha! I love this. I love her math, you know? Like, "Look you idiot people with your less is more bullshit... this logic doesn't even work."

You can read this gem and others in this month's Elle Decor. The cover is disappointing. Wicker? Rattan? Red stripes? A fern? Doesn't really do it for me. But there's some good stuff inside this month.

You totally have to read all of this and then report back.

Themes:

The pill. Your partner. That you may not like him once you are off of it. That you are messing with evolution. Awesome themes!

Thoughts?

Style obit alert:

Watch out for fawning tributes on style and fashion blogs. Maybe just take tomorrow off from reading.

I know that Louis CK wouldn't approve, but I now make a regular habit of calling ATT every night to ask for a "rush hour" credit to my account. ATT's weak network renders my iPhone useless from 4 - 7pm every day. I recommend you also make it hurt for ATT if you are experiencing the same problem.


Here's Louis CK scolding me about it, I am sure:

So glad the Grey Lady is calling bullshit on this.

Read THIS and THIS.

From the article:

The word “curate,” lofty and once rarely spoken outside exhibition corridors or British parishes, has become a fashionable code word among the aesthetically minded, who seem to paste it onto any activity that involves culling and selecting. In more print-centric times, the term of art was “edit” — as in a boutique edits its dress collections carefully. But now, among designers, disc jockeys, club promoters, bloggers and thrift-store owners, curate is code for “I have a discerning eye and great taste.”

Or more to the point, “I belong.”

For many who adopt the term, or bestow it on others, “it’s an innocent form of self-inflation,” said John H. McWhorter, a linguist and senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute. “You’re implying that there is some similarity between what you do and what someone with an advanced degree who works at a museum does.”

Lonny.

That Michelle is one enterprising chick. I love that. Her new online magazine is out. You can see it HERE. Do report back on it, please.



This pool. Sweet Jesus, this pool.

This looks exhausting.

This is brunch? It looks exhausting.



Let's notice the toe ring here.
