well i tried....

to see mgmt at mccarren this past sunrday.
after some drinks and lots of having to pee..we approached the park only to follow the line for blocks and find it stretching from mccarren to basically under the bqe.
and for anyone who knows this distance - feel free to gag right about now.
being at the end of the line in a downpour..my love for mgmt began to be pushed to the side by my yearning for shelter and a couch and/or toilet.

i must say i was looking forward to this all summer but sometimes it's better to just hear glimpses of the soundcheck while you walk to the bar rather then stand in the hipster line from hell. check it out:




oh and eff this being the only good video from that afternoon with the most annoying biddy singing over Ben and Andrew.

Wuddeva. Check it

hip heads.

It's been awhile, let's talk fashion.

Hipster Headbands - Love them. Hate them.





I read an interesting article about hipster headbands today and how they can only be worn by a select few who can actually pull them off. Yes folks, it's true. According to a very reliable trending website, this is a trend that few can pull off and one that is making a presence on the runways.

So, do you love them or do you hate them?


I'd say - circa last Spring - I thought hipster headbands were pretty damn sweet. I will even admit that I rocked them every now and then. My own version of course. Discounted threads bought at Joann's Fabrics that I cut to the size of my head and wore with pride. Did I look like an idiot, maybe. But I didn't think so.


Word on the street is that the headbands you see on the runway - such as in Ann Sui or Chanel's Fall 2008 collections, are actually completely influenced by the favorite accessory of every girl (and guy) in Williamsburg. While we're starting to - or have been - hating on this trend, the fashion gods have been totally making it work for them. Props.

So, if you rock a HH or not, we're not judging. We just wanna know your opinions. I still think some girls look great in them.
