Not that we didn't already adore the simply squeezable Michael Kors,
but now we have reason to add to our aresenal of favorite MKs (Mary-Kate
is already a charter member). Mr. Kors answered all of our probing FFP
questions with the grace and candor that he is lauded for in the industry.
With his amazingly affordable and classic Michael line debuting
this season as well as a new freestanding store on Rodeo Drive, we suspect
that this MK is destined to have a red banner year.

TABLOID DROUGHT MAKES THIS PUPPY POUT
Is it raining out? Because we hear a little stolen thunder a' rumblin'. It's curious that when the lower profile sister stole the spotlight earlier in the week with her tawdry nuptials that the more over-exposed sibling lost her pup Tinkerbell. Can you smell what the Paris is cooking? We smell a tabloid robbery. Thursday (tab release day) was fast approaching and we reckon that Paris had a hunch lil' Nicky was cover bound. With no fat lips nor robberies to anchor her extra inches, oops, pow, surprise(!), she "loses" the dog and proceeds to post hot pink oak-tag signs up all over LA declaring that the "dog is like a child to me, help!", all the while haughtily posing while the paparazzi snaps shots. Luckily, post the Entertainment Tonight and CNN coverage *Tinkerbell was allegedly found snoozing in a wayward Ugg boot...phew.
*remember, we said allegedly

THE OLYMPIC SPIRIT
We are obsessed with the Olympics and have stayed up past midnight getting our inspirational fix from athletes who exhibit such drive, grace, courage and passion. How can we not feel verklempt whenever we hear that Olympic theme song with the pounding timpanis and trumpet fanfare? Aside from the gymnastics, we've been riveted to the swimming, particularly the men's events where tall, smooth bodied Olympians with bat wing lats butterfly and freestyle their way to across the pool. Pictured here are some of our favorite fish, most of whom look way hotter with their swimcaps on because the rubber masks their stiff, chlorine saturated locks.
