Messing With Goony Bird

Thursday, October 28th, 2010

First they give her polio by photoshopping that leg. Then, if that’s not enough, they give her extensions!

I say, Let Goony be Goony! Don’t fuck with her.

I may have to write a heartfelt letter to Shopbop.

Meanwhile, meet two lessor Shopbop models:  Kristen Stewart Girl and Jeniffer Aniston Girl.

Goony Tries a Head Tilt

Thursday, September 30th, 2010

Eh, I’m not feeling it.

Don’t compromise your trademark stance, Goony Bird! If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.

(Or as Max liked to say, If it ain’t broke, break it.)

Look Like a Horsey at Two Price Points

Friday, September 24th, 2010

If someone wearing these jeans came galloping toward me, I’d have a stroke. Don’t they remind you of a satyr from Greek mythology? Or are they just hideous?    (Cheap Monday, $87 at Shopbop)

Less Dionysian but grotesque in its own right is this suede number that would probably look more acceptable with the butt cut out, at least for a gay rodeo.   (Haute Hippie, $695, Shopbop)

Stupid and laughable, yes, but I know a trend when I see one. I’m going to call this look “Tragic Mountain Goat” unless someone’s got a better idea.

I’m Too Smart For Alex Wang

Tuesday, August 17th, 2010

He thought I’d make fun of this “sock boot” by combining a lace-up shoe with a folded-over top and a knee high boot. And he was so desperate to get a reaction from me that he even added a silver metal toe thing.

No dice, Alex. I’m not taking the bait. You’ll have to get someone else this time.    ($925 at Shopbop)

The Tavi Tunic

Wednesday, May 12th, 2010

I had mixed feelings when I came upon this new item at Shopbop: The Tavi Tunic, modeled here by Starving Girl, doesn’t even look like a tunic but who am I to say what a tunic is.

What does it mean when a tunic that isn’t even a tunic is called “Tavi?” Among my reactions was the thought, WHERE ARE THE FUCKING SISTER WOLF LEATHER SHORTS?!?

I’ve lost all interest in Tavi The Blogger except as a sign of cultural decline. I see she is speaking somewhere about Gen Y for $500-$1,000 per ticket. I didn’t even know there was a Generation Y, that’s how lame I am.

Why don’t we just give up and let the teenagers run everything! We can sit back and watch them cycle through all the fashions and pop culture of the last 60 years. Right now they’re on Punk, or maybe Hippies. Let them worship the music and films of bygone eras, let them say Um all the time, let them sext each other all day long.

All I want is to lay on my gigantic new Sears Pillow-top Mattress and try to forget everything I saw and read online today, including all sex scandals, congressional hearings and the Tavi Tunic.

This Shoe Makes Me Want to Cry

I guess that’s why a woman can’t be President.

Sass & Bide Plus Goony Bird =

Sunday, April 25th, 2010

What the hell is up with Sass & Bide?

This skirt is just baffling.  Shopbop, naturally, $265.  Add Goony Bird and it’s a complete nightmare.

Can anyone explain?

This chino skirt would look great with ______________________.

Goony Bird Perfects Her Stare

How does she do it?!?
