The family Hermes uses the Star Gate to bring ancestors forward in time to battle the evil Fashion Troll…

Congratulations and imaginary swag to Jennie, whose reference to our favorite Fashion Troll cinched the win for her. Her prize for such captivating captioning? What else but a beautiful, virtual Hermes Birkin, stolen straight from the lap of Euro superstar Jane Birkin. Here she is at the Jean Paul Gaulthier show being distracted by the twinkling lights coming from inside Anna Piaggi’s head while I sneak up on her from the other side:

Here’s a better look, this time at Eva Longoria’s navy version: Ooooh, pretty!

Are you there, Xenu? It’s me, Denise

Oh yes, that’s exactly right, Brit-Brit. This is how you dispel rumours that you’ve flipped out again; you walk around Beverly Hills in an 80’s dress, holding hands with your agent/boyfriend/sobrietybuddy wearing a leopardskin crown and Minnie Mouse ears on your head. Well done, girlfriend!

Melbourne Fashion Festival gets into the flow

This is a strong look, for red-blooded girls. Perhaps it’s a knowing reference to the time Alexander McQueen sent a model down the runway with a conspicuous string dangling, as if her ladyparts were an old-fashioned ceiling fixture.

Oh, honey! I remember when my parents would take the whole family to the drive-through and I’d get to wear my pajamas and carry an overnight bag for my blankie and my dolly and sit on the hood of the car and watch the movie while my parents got up to god-knows-what inside the car, but I don’t recall there being a red carpet.

Oh, lookie! They’ve got the blankie too!
