It’s not often that a woman with a pronounced east-coast lockjaw accent will become my new fashion fave. The name of this eponimous lady is Candy Pratts Price, Style.com’s Executive Style Director. I don’t know what it is, but the podcast you can download on their site is absolutely as addictive as chocolate covered bacon (don’t ask, it was a necessary short-love affair).
She conjures mental images of Diana Vreeland, as she eccentrically waxes poetic about it being necessary to have a pool, as well as a pool boy, to be de riguer for the ‘08 summer fashion season. I mean, she’s unrealistic, yet so outre, and can almost convince you that a diamond studded skull from Damien Hirst is not only something that you can’t live without, but it will make you live longer and happier.
I posted the above pic as it sorta makes it look like Andre Leon Talley is her purse bitch. I mean, I would assume its his murse, but zebra fringe-a-la-Stevie-Nicks does not go with a grey flannel suit and duchesse blue tie. Sorry, but bring in the fashion po-po. It does however, somewhat go with CPP’s ensemble.
Candy, I love you like a fat kid love cake.
