I AM A TUMBLR

Hey my faithful readers:

I have created a Tumblr. It is for the LOLz I find on my daily internet journeys, and not for fashion or news or anything really time-sensitive, but a repository of GIFs and ads, pictures and videos of the terrifying, banal and gorgeous.

It'll be like this, except awkward for everyone involved.

Twitter? But, I just met 'er?!

You can follow me now.

If you had been following earlier, you could have witnessed my traipse around Washington Square Park to locate the elusive Topshop truck.

I promise you it will be good fun.

eBay HAUL

I would just like everyone to know that I just posted some amazing things on eBay, and they should go bid their little tails off.

Can't remember my store URL? How dare thee. It's here, at Missy Meow.

Lots of vintage, some Halston, Cheap Monday and Betsey Johnson. Help thyselves.

MISSY MEOW

Like the smart shopper I am, I've decided to convert my addiction into something possibly lucrative. I've dug through my closet, my roommates' closet, my friends' closets and several other second hands locales to find some clothing I feel like other people would like, and I took pictures of them, used fancy words in their description, and BAM, I'm on the eBay.

So far, I've sold a Fendi watch for $140, David Yurman perfume for $70, and some old, fairly gnarled birkenstocks for $25. Which I think is pretty impressive, for someone who runs their shop out of a curtain-cum-closet hanger and has to peel cat hair out of everything.

There isn't a tremendous amount of good stuff up there, but every now and again I get some amazing cosmetics you should check out. And its also funny to see me parading around in clothing long forgotten.

Also, while I'm at it, be a friend of mine on Facebook, which you can do here:

I'll list some of my goodies from fashion week, which would have been much more interesting to write about if I didn't leave my camera at the Gagosian halfway through.

NYLON :: Shameless Self Promotion

Check out this September's Nylon. It's the TV issue, but notice the fashion news section for three pieces by a very familiar name. There is one more - my intro piece on by boe jewelry, but I didn't grab a pic of it.

Here' are some shots because there is no digital issue yet:

Well, I thought I'd share with you the fact that I am, in fact, a legitimate writer. Check out the newest issue of "V" (with Gwenyth on the cover) and see a couple of my stories - on Olafur Eliasson, Richard Misrach and Jade Jagger. Here it is:

But I don't think the digital version is free yet, so in the mean time you can read me in the last issue of V with the other Gwen on the cover, found here:
