The fashion pages are an eye-opener, especially the Show & Tell Blog. Needless to say, many consider FASSSSSHIONN (key here is to breathe into the word, avoid saying out loud) to be more than just a passion (honey, passion alone doesn't pay the dry-cleaning bills) or religion (red thread around my wrist actually belongs to my Fall/Winter cashmere caplet). To them, FASSSSSHIONN actually forms the lowest level of Maslow's Hierachy of Needs, which technically makes sense since most only graze to survive. Think Lagarfeld, not Lager beer.
On socialite Fabiola Beracasa's blog, "The Fab Life" (congratulations on getting that pun right, Fabby!), her fashion- enslave life and air-kissing folks make for good light readng... although it does get a little too phony-baloney at times.. and this is NOT taking into account the number of folks who are non-biodegradable.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE however read Grub Street, especially 'Ask a Waiter' from Grub Street, which is essentially refine grub gossip served on China. Absolutely enjoyable readings there.
