1.  The Row – $39,000 Alligator Backpack

It is no secret that I love the Olsen twins. I love them as if they were my own daughters/sisters/starving sponsor children. I long to own and fit into both their wardrobes, and have coveted almost everything they have designed for The Row so far.

It is also no secret that I will pay amounts considered exorbitant by the average bear for things I decide I simply cannot live without. Past such items have included Proenza Schouler bags, Dries van Noten knits, and YSL shoes. I have a problem, maybe even an illness. But even I cannot stomach the idea of paying USD$39,000 for a backpack, even if it has been touched by an angel/Olsen twin.

The craziest thing about the Alligator backpack was not even so much the mortgage-worthy price, but the fact it SOLD OUT IN WEEKS. Suppliers could not keep up with the demand and there are now extensive waiting lists for the privilege of buying a bag for an amount of money that could potentially heal the world.

WTF rich people?

3. Scarlett Johansson US Cosmo Cover

Scarlett Johansson is a really, really, ridiculously good looking human. Love her or hate her, it’s hard to deny that. And somebody at US Cosmo must really hate her for doing this to her. The dress! The hair! The pose! The expression! It’s just so incredibly awkward and WRONG. She looks more like a promo model for some sort of blueberry-flavoured alcopop than a super hot babe with serious acting chops.

Meanwhile, I really want to know more about this “other G-spot” the cover refers to. I bet it’s the left armpit. Do you think it’s the left armpit?
