The clip shows of ANTM are so much better now than they were in previous cycles, since it’s mostly unaired footage. We got to see a little bit more of Spontaniouse. Why the hell didn’t they keep her around? And how about that sit down TyTy had with the girls and “Dani” about the pressures in the modeling industry to lose weight (replete with voice overs for the lines she fucked up)? Trust us, we know what she’s getting at with the body image stuff and we are into it. But she’s so arbitrary with this shit. One minute she’s telling the girls to not compromise who they are and to stay true to themselves, and the minute they even have a questioning look on their faces during makeover day, they’re practically crucified for not “wanting it enough.” So according to Tyra, it’s OK to shed a few locks, but not a few pounds, for a job.

One of the things I always appreciated about Hogan was that it was a sporty company that relied on design more than flashy over sized logos and monograms. The carrier of a Hogan knew what she had and how much it cost, and didn’t need to advertise it to the world.
But, alas, most companies eventually succumb to the pressure of being able to turn the customer into a walking billboard, and buckle, Hogan has.


A sporty style rolled duffel, with authentic gym accents like a canvas shoulder strap, reduced to handbag size and glammed up in a very bright gold, this bag is flash on a handle. I’m impressed that someone showed restraint and didn’t cover the logo with crystals, just in case the bag was too subtle.
When all is said and done, it does bring a Hogan to mind…Hulk. Hopefully, he picked up a few for his wife, and daughter, Brooke. Not everyday you can walk into Bergdorfs and pick a personalized bag off the rack. even if you have to shell out $1,050 for it.
The Sacca Piccola (does that mean “washed up wrestler” in Italian?) from the Italian Hogan is available at Bergdorf Goodman.

I’m currently in possession of a Mulitpass Wallet and her Luggage Part Two bag, and both have brought so much glee to me. Handmade, handscreened, and Ellen is the most awesome Etsy-er ever.
