For my first post on Newsweek/The Daily Beast, I reported on Cathy Horyn's assumption that Alexander Wang was to fulfill a position at Balenciaga. How will the design-dialogue of Wang’s opulent-oppidan aesthetic conflict with the luxury conversation of the 98 year old brand Balenciaga? For now, I don't care. The result of filing that story at 2:15 am has given me serious zombie-eyes. I'm thrilled to be working with the ultra-talented Robin Givhan and the staff at Newsweek/The Daily Beast.

Alas, I've discovered another cavity of productivity. Though direction is still to be decided, I'm thinking this blog will be a personal page of rants, raves and an online scattering of my stories. For those who don't know me, I'm a fashion journalist. I write for the New York Times, Newsweek/The Daily Beast and the Financial Times. In addition, I'm a contributing editor at the New York Observer's SCENE Magazine. If you're not one for words and prefer pixels, check out my Tumblr page. Also, I'm on Twitter.
