Karl Lagerfeld in Vice Magazine
14 years ago
I love all things Karl Lagerfeld. I first fell in love with him while studying at FIDM. I used him as my inspiration for many school projects and wrote a few papers on him. Then, while studying at SFSU, in my business communications class, I gave a speech on Lagerfeld as my source of professional inspiration. This guy is involved in so many things beyond fashion, from hotel interior design to taking high end photography shots, to having 300+ iPod’s, all with different music, scattered throughout the globe at his multiple homes.
It’s no surprise that I was excited to hear Bruce LaBruce of Vice Magazine interviewed Lagerfeld, and it is featured over a seven page spread in the latest issue.
Lagerfeld on not removing his sunglasses for interviews:
They’re my burka. I had an interview once with some German journalist, some horrible, ugly woman. It was in the early days after the communists, maybe a week after, and she wore a yellow sweater that was kind of see-through. She had huge tits and a huge black bra, and she said to me, “It’s impolite; remove your glasses.” I said, “Do I ask you to remove your bra?”

Ever dreamed of having a cup of tea with Karl Lagerfeld, Donatella Versace or Naomi Campbell? Probably not, unless you’re English. These new tea bags by Pret-a-portea allow you to have some high profile fashionistas with you as you drink your tea…obviously, since they’re attached to the tea bag.
How Cute?

Book Bust: McQueen’s Machines
14 years ago
McQueen’s Machines $26.95 is a look at Hollywood-legend Steve McQueen’s love of motorcycles and cars. McQueen made movies best remembered for their car chases, motorcycle dashes, and hair-raising races. Throughout the years, no one forgets the man at the wheel, Steve McQueen, aka the King of Cool. No other Hollywood star has been so closely linked with cars and bikes. This 176 page book features cars, motorcycles, and even airplanes that McQueen owned over the years. Written by Matt Stone; with foreward from Steve McQueen’s son, Chad McQueen.
If your dad happens to own 2 Harley Davidsons, 1 car, 2 trucks, 1 para-plane, 1 cigarette boat, 1 pontoon, 3 ATVs, and 3 snowmobiles, like my dad, then this book might be a perfect Holiday gift for him! And dad, now that I’ve written down all the toy’s you own (and maybe even missed a few), I understand why living in rural Minnesota works out so well for you!
