GGs (and i don't mean gossip girls)

my faves, especially zoe saldana's. won't even go into my picks for worst -- too many to even mention (christina aguilera...shudder), SLIM pickins this year! note: maggie's fits exquisitely but would have been better in a different colour. ginnifer looks ADORABLE but this isn't a look i'd go for myself, don't think it would work on a lot of people!

chloe sevigny is an honourable mention:
not because it's the best she's ever worn...not even close...but because she pulled it off (despite an escort ripping it en route to her winning speech). she lives in a very special place in my heart

holy jeez

wa wa wee wa. this album is BY FAR one of my favourites of the year, if not the aughts. i saw the decemberists twice this year and the hazards of love shows were epic, with full-blown costumes, group drumming, etc.

my heart is aflutter

creamer




amongst
my favourite
books
of all time













UPDATE: saw the movie, with was conspicuously devoid of pimples, Dwayne, anal liberties, Fuzzy, etc. Also, Trent was very poorly casted...should have been more of a chace crawford type. but c'est la vie -- 9 out of 10 times (maybe 9.5 out of 10) the movie does not REMOTELY live up to the book. all in all it was funny (albeit weird) to see michael cera play a badass Frenchman, and he was pretty good as Nick Twisp, but expectations must be managed if you are a fan of the teen tome and intend to see the film.
