This is my first blog for Bust (!) and it’s about Mad Men being similar to Gilligan’s Island. Come on, Don Draper is totally the Professor.
Hey there dudes & dudettes! As you know for Halloween this year, I was a cop. A friend and I are part of the picture collective featured on nylonmag.com. Check out the whole shebang and here’s a link to my photo. My lady friend next to me is a droog, what a fantastic costume she made! (And her husband, though not pictured, was a droog as well!)
* Photo note: I lovingly mashed up Nylon’s graphics for this blog.
Outfit du jour - Halloween Edition
Taken after a night out (mussed up hair that starts to curl in the drizzle). Bonus points for reflecting my messy desk onto my aviator lenses.
I’m going to put you in the slammah.
Our Differences Unite Us
Edited by Fashion Pulse Daily
Coming off of Ashe Mischief’s Independent Fashion Blogger’s Post (Good Cop/Bad Cop: Participating in Links a la Mode), you all brought your A-game in posting the links a la mode — which made it extra hard to edit! This week, the theme that I saw emerging throughout the posts is one of celebrating our unique diversity; each site has a different take and approach to fashion, art, beauty, media, lifestyle, music – you name it! From the dry shampoo trials at Dramatis Personae to Le Petite Cecile’s observations regarding the bleached eyebrow trend, you all brought a new perspective to each topic at hand, a sign that indicates how wonderful and creative the blogosphere truly is. Get even more excited for Halloween with cmykaboom and Idiosyncratic Style costume suggestions that are sure to make you smile, along with DenimDebutante’s discovery of the “zipholder”. All in all, one things’ for certain: we’ve got an amazing community of bloggers!
As expected, there was a fabulous round-up of links in the forum as well, all worthy of your eyeballs!
Links à la Mode : October 29th

With the crispy, cold weather rolling in, scarves are making more and more of a wardrobe appearance. They’re great staples for any style - from bandannas to thick, woolly, knitted numbers, scarves make an impact. All while adding warmth.
Personally, I’ve got all these great scarves, but what do I do with them?
the house was new
untouched by ghosts
or the dead who like
to sing
the weeds were growing,
we took a spade
hooking through, like
a needle
into the hearth of dirt
until he found red again
and we laughed
despite all the water
