Marvin Scott Jarrett & The Courtney Love Baby Doll

And, here's the woman behind the inspiration...




Courtney Love - Pretty On The Inside
BABY DOLL (Lyrics)

Here you come sucking my energy and you
Suck it up right off the street
Babydoll
You are sucking my energy
I drill it in my good hole so that i can see
You are so much bigger than me you are,
You are so much bigger than me
Babydoll
My raw hand my fever blister
Watch me watch me disappear
Here she comes her pants undone
All waste and void all waste and void
There you go in your nazi car
Oh baby what a whore you are
She's sits around with her old rag
How can i talk when you've, you've got the gag?
Here you come sucking my energy
Suck it up baby right from the street
Babydoll
In the dark i destroy what i began what i destroy
She hangs in the blossom tree oh
Babydoll just swings for me
Babydoll
Babydoll she's...chemical wedding chemical peel
I knife me and i slash mine and i knife me and i slash mine
Stick it inside of me well here you are just as ugly as me
Drill it in my good hole so that i can see yea
Drill it in my good hole so that i can see yea
Here you come sucking my energy
And you suck it up baby right from the street
Babydoll
She starts to stare into the sun
Now i, i want a cancer that the crooked eye spied
You are mine and my energy cos baby
You are so much bigger than
Babydoll
Little girl she's on the floor
She gets it all cos she's the whore
Little girl she's on the ground
She gets it off of falling falling down
Falling down no matter what
"i am, i am" she says, "i am not free" she says
Help me i am withering
Withering withering

NYC Fashion Week - Spring 2010 (Part 2)

The girl-on-the-street vibe that I was bitching about earlier, is still going strong on the runway, but I'm kinda sorta getting used to it & there have been a few snazzy exceptions. Guess I'll just have to wait for Paris & Milan (London, hopefully too... PLEEEEASE, London) for some oomph. Here's the best of what Style.com has on display from the last few days of the Spring 2010 collections...

Vena Cava:


Jason Wu:



Prabal Gurung:

Yigal Azrouel:




Preen by Justin Thornton & Thea Bregazzi is far & away the best of what's been offered so far. The palette is so right on for the times, fresh & clean with little shocks of color here & there, and I adore the intricate strap detailing, the metallic leathers, all the sculptural details, and their restrained but generous use of lace & draping.











And, in yet another lesson reminding us to Never Judge A Book By It's Cover...

Jeffrey Costello and Robert Tagliapietra, the burly lumberjackish partners behind Costello Tagliapietra, dazzle with sophisticated elegance...

Beth Ditto Rawkin The Attitude

I really don't think anyone in music today can top Beth Ditto in the Fuck You Confidence Department. I mean, here we are all obsessing over every minute & often imagined imperfection, while she's out flaunting each chubby inch of her gorgeous self like the goddess she is, which is actually beside the point, given her kick ass vocal stylings and rock star stage antics. Heavy Cross is such a bitchin song- I might never get over it - and GOSSiP is the bombdiggidy.

Check her out on the cover of the UK's ATTiTUDE magazine.
