Keep your babycakes cozy in the beer sweater – perfect for any back to school ensemble. It even comes in the ever-popular 40 oz size ($18) and is available here. They come from recycling sweaters, so they’re green too!
Because if you haven’t heard, it’s totally cool to rock the environerd look on your beer. It’s also cool to pretend like you’re still in college even if you’re pushing 30. Which I am doing. And I am cool.

Dooney & Bourke’s not-so-better half, Bourke, has been found guilty “of conspiring to pay bribes to government leaders in Azerbaijan in a 1998 oil deal.” Basically, Bourke has been living this crazy espionage-y, conspiracy-laden life with suitcases stuffed with money, shakedowns in government offices, and hiring mobsters for protection! Bourke not only schleps fancy party girl handbags, HE GETS DOWN LIKE AN EVIL DUDE IN A JAMES BOND MOVIE!
Of course no fashionista gives a crap about this illegal activity (although WWD ran a bit on it yesterday), especially since Bourke is set to remain chairman. I wonder – when he was gallavanting around, trying to rig an oil deal (rig a rig?), was he using the Hayden bag? In lipstick red?

The “blonde with class” (from Vogue by way of The Telegraph) should be renamed the “blonde with sass” – one of my favorite models of the 90s, Karen Mulder has gone bananas! Again!
As any avid supermodel-watcher will tell you, Karen Mulder was bright, blonde, and buxom – and then she was drugged, depressed, and down & out. Now reports are stating that Mulder has been threatening her plastic surgeon to the point of arrest – the overwhelming released quote is as follows:
A police source says, “She was screaming and shouting about the operation and became extremely threatening. There were repeated calls to the female surgeon who was extremely scared. The suspect is being interviewed.”
But she is soooo good lookin’. Looks like it may be time to head back to the psychiatrisch ziekenhuis.

Available now at Lighterside.com, this $16.98 candle will have your room stinking like a beerhall faster than you can say, “Prost!” It looks like a beer, it smells like a beer… is there any alcohol in here? Well, no. So it loses a few points there.
But it gains points in its housewarming gift perfection . I suggest passing these out to all your friends, especially the ones that have really pristine, floral apartments with full kitchen sets and working ovens. In fact, I’m sure your mother and even your grandmother would get a kick of the fragrant brew aroma, wafting through the house. I can’t wait until “sweaty socks” arrives!
