Put the date here.

Here's a great place to put a random quote or random post title.

Karl’s mixin’, Linda’s writin’ and Jody’s back

I’ve never thought of Karl Lagerfeld as being adept at throwing down on the wheels of steel. Wouldn’t the fan get in the way? In any case, if you’ve got a hankering for Siouxsie and the Banshees, Black Mountain or Super Furry Animals (there’s a joke somewhere with that last one), then check out Vogue Presents Karl Lagerfeld: My Favorite Songs. You can find the compilation over at Amazon.com. The CD will be released 17 November.

Also in the moonlighting department, Linda Wells’, Allure: Confessions of a Beauty Editor is out this month. Wells is the founding editor of Allure.com. According to the Amazon description, the book offers “essential makeup techniques, sidebars, expert tips, emergency fixes and information on how to get the best products for your money.”

I checked out the reviews and it seems that if you’re a subscriber to Allure, the book may have some repeated information from the mag. But, if you’re into Wells’ writing style, you may want to jump on this one for the entertainment value.

And guess who’s ready to wreck shop, Jody Watley (swoon). Watley has just released The Makeover which I’ve yet to listen to, but I’ll be doggone if she doesn’t look as if she has aged at all. I mean, good lord, look at her! I consider myself somewhat of an expert in spotting who has been under the knife and, unless I’m losing my eye, Watley ain’t been touched.

On her myspace page, Watley has a lot of info on what she’s been up to over the past few years. She also toots her own horn, which I love strong, beautiful women to do:

“Beyond my music, Ive made an impact in pop culture and represented the future possibilities of an artist - a black one at that - with regard to the relationship between music and fashion. I was the first black woman and artist to launch a major fashion magazine SPUR in Japan! You can also add my ..1 workout video Dance to Fitness to my list of achievements. Im not tooting my own horn - I can hear some of you now - just pointing out overlooked facts.”

And there ain’t a damned thing wrong with doing that.
