Where to Juice in Chicago!

Julia, Love love love nonsociety.com and love the blog. We have similar tastes in fashion and I love getting style ideas from you. I live in Chicago and cannot find a place that you can get green juice from? Almost all of them are the crap smoothies, full of...

Favorite lyrical moment of the moment
When Britney Spears says: “You say I’m crazy, I GOT your crazy”, in “Womanizer” I start laughing hysterically. I can’t help it.

Big Red Blunder
It’s official — I am violently allergic to Big Red gum.
On the plus side, I don’t have some mutant strand of tongue herpes, which was my initial guess.

Another Push for Beauty →
No, not my beauty. What a lost cause (referencing the Excellent Party post of course). Women’s beauty! Women’s beauty that we can fight for still. Why haven’t you joined? And even if you have - know anyone that works in magazine? In the industry as they say? Spread the word far and wide!
Follow me on Twitter yo! →
I started to import my twitter feeds to Tumblr, but as I couldn’t make them look quite as nice as I wanted, I have decided to remove it until futher HTML knowledge. Plus, it seemed really out of context. But that might just be my mind.

Did Moe Tkacik get fired from Gawker? →
Oddly, the final straw in my mind came yesterday when she wrote that post about Elizabeth Wurtzel. For me, Moe’s irritation factor was always somewhat cancelled out by the fact that she had a kind of gravitas and a fuck-you self-awareness. But calling Wurtzel, the literary figure to whom Moe would most likely be compared, a “self-obsessed cokehead slut” was laughable considering...
MAVERICK!!! Everyone!

You Can't Stop the Beat
After a delightful evening with the big-boy bottle Barefoot Pinot Grigo ($14.96 with tax!), LP (a bff from college), and multiple episodes of “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia” (it is just as good as Erin described), I ended up dancing half a pas-de-deux down 3rd Ave. at about 1 AM. The time is approximate I have no idea what time it was. My headphones were blaring the movie...

Park it
I was walking through Washington Square Park on an increasingly more frequent daytrip into the office when I saw a group comprised entirely of old people sitting in a circle while some sort of tour guide character made expansive hand gestures and pointed to things.
That’s weird, I thought, as I believe the average age of person in Washington Square Park at any given moment is roughly 20.7....

My iPhone and Me!
I’ve had my iPhone for about 2 weeks now and I adore it. Adore. I’ve never loved a piece of technology so much. In fact, it is facilitating my turning into a total techno-geek. And I’m fine with that! In fact, I love it too! Bring on the upgrades, the apps, and the coding, I’m set to be a long term geek now.
It's the thought that counts
Me: Ah! I realized this weekend that I accidentally grabbed your laptop charger. That's why I planned to come in early -- to get it back to you.
Boss: You're ten minutes late.
Me: Well, I mean, I planned to come in early.
“You’ll find that this luck follows you everywhere in New York.”
– Elizabeth, a lawyer and fellow sneak at NYFW. I sat with her through the Custo Barcelona show, and this comment was made about 30 seconds before security figured out I was not in fact supposed to have an all access pass to the Tents and backstage.

I have an extra pass allowing access to The Tents for the rest of Fashion Week.
(PS. Preference will be given to those who are willing to write up their experiences exploring Fashion Week for NonSociety. Doesn’t have to be brilliant, we just want the outsider’s perspective. Triple bonus points if you’re cunning enough to sneak into a show or three. And document it.)
Oh please,...
