What I Wore
When:
July 31, 2008
What:
Shades: F21
Tank: Target Go! International
Quilted, Cut and Sew Skirt: M.Bibelot’s Etsy Store
Belt: Lucky, free from the office
Shoes: Target
Where:
hi ho hi ho, its off to work we go
Why:
This was just some huge stroke of luck. I was about to walk out the door in something else and was like, “no way I can wear pants today!” so I saw this skirt, thought I would wear it as a dress, figured, no, that didn’t work either, and came up with this combo. I’ve gotta say— I’m pretty happy with it. The skirt is an amazing quilted cut and sew number. Tons of piecing and tons of color— I definitely want to make a jacket with this feeling for fall.
US:
I’d love to start a petition to have Mary replaced with this girl. She has more style in her pinky nail clippings than Mary could ever dream of having. Every outfit she wears is interesting and unique and shows her personality. Seems everything Mary wears is “classic” or cliche.

LOUNGE HARD OR GO HOME
(love this picture, it’s like I told everyone to be silly.)
Welcome to The Stork, LA’s hottest new night lounge (night clubs are so 2002). Uber exclusive, the restaurant will only let you in if you are referred for a reservation. Sounds pretentious, it is, but that’s what make a night lounge fabulous.
Holding court in the far back corner for her birthday celebration is Ashely Simpson with cutie pie Pete Wentz, sister Jess, and of course Dad is in the mix. Jessica’s dress was a disaster (like Cavalli gone very wrong, so it probably was Cavalli), but that girl looks beautiful in anything.
Decorated to transport the feel of the original New York Stork, you’ll find vintage art mixed with modern additions. The food is delightful in tapas portions so you don’t get weighed down before you head upstairs.
This place will hit it big. Get on the guest list now!
US:
Are you and Jess “friends” now? Maybe you, Jessica Simpson, and Don Henley can all gab about style together. You can snuggle up to Jess’s bosom and level with her about her Cavalli dress you’d happily wear if it were coming from your mom’s store.
PS: Maybe in your shallow little world, pretension is what “makes a night lounge fabulous” but not to most of us “little people” orbiting around you. Get REAL. Down to earth would make you seem much more attractive. Try THAT for a style tip.

This is so cute!
It’s really too bad whoever created it wastes their time criticising someone (that’s me) they obviously hate so much. But it’s nice to have a hobby.
US:
Thanks Mary, so glad you approve. Know something I’ve learned from re-blogging your posts? Most of the reblogs are people laughing at you and your “style” just as much as I am. Hmm I bet we’re all jealous of you, aren’t we?
Cut to Mary, sitting on the stage of a talk show, snapping her finger at the audience, “You don’t KNOW me, ya’ll just jealous!”.
And scene.

maryrambin:
I tried on so many cute things, but nothing seemed to fit right. AND! I learned that somehow I’ve grown from a 4 to a 6.
Doesn’t seem like my twice a day workouts are helping…it’s those damn cookies.
US:
Fuck, shut up already about what you eat, what size you wear, and how many times you vomit per day!

maryrambin:
Just north of Porto Via on Canon is my favorite sandwich shop, Il Tramezzino. Andy introduced me to their famous “Chicken Special” sandwich in college. This thing is unbelievabe: grillied chicken slices, avocado, sun-dried tomatos, provolone cheese, and their secret sauce served panini style piping hot. You won’t eat for the rest of the day because you WILL finish the entire thing.
US:
Not all of us have your strange body dysmorphia or eating disorder where you eat once a day then fast. That’t just for shallow and unhealthy freaks. It is healthy to eat 3-5 small meals a day. I hope young girls aren’t following your blog. I don’t think you have the capacity to understand how it really comes off to people.

maryrambin:
GREY GOOSE
Purple will accent any anything, but grey and taupe continue to be trendy colors for winter. Pair them together and you should have a solid ensemble.
Note the overwhelming jacket and sweater that envelope the outfits. If the weather insists you have variety in your jackets, choose a few that aren’t so flattering. You’ll find them comfy, and sometimes more fun.
US:
Style tips by Mary: choose stuff that isn’t flattering.

maryrambin:
Scarves are another favorite accessory. Her dress is plain black American Apparel, and by adding one piece, she’s made a whole outfit.
The final compliment to a fall wardrobe are gloves. You won’t find any in LA, but rest assured there are a plethora in the colder climates. Opt for a long glove; wear it taught or scrunched down.
US:
Um, it’s “taut” not “taught”.
..snickers..

Mary Rambin’s Fahion Faux Pas

Photo: Paul Hawthorne /Star Traks
Mary (flanked by besties Julia Allison and Meghan Asha) is an expert self-promoter.
Handbag designer Mary Rambin may have reality show aspirations, but she’s not so hot on pop culture. When asked on Fuse TV what impact Pete Doherty has had on contemporary style, the alleged “fashion expert” and frequent target of gossip site Gawker failed to mention his affair with Kate Moss, his campaign for Cavalli, or his influence on Hedi Slimane and Dior. Instead, she stopped for a moment and then blurted, “Who the f—k is Pete Doherty?” That’s OK, Mary—we’re sure Pete doesn’t know who you are, either.
Apparently they don’t sense my sarcasm and assume I’m a complete idiot. (Must be one of my rebloggers.)
But check out the title, what point are they trying to make?!
Great picture though (JA: Chloe and Reese, Me: Zac Posen, MA: Theory)
US:
You show yet again that you have nothing significant to say about style. That you have the panache of a gutter mouth. And that you have no idea what’s going on in the world as far as news, entertainment, OR fashion. “But don’t our picture look CUTE ya’ll?”
Kudos!
PS: Look up irony in the dictionary. This is NOT irony. So you can’t spell AND you misuse words. God you irritate me.
