Good News For Team J.Lo
Logowear still shows promising retail sales despite an otherwise stale financial climate. According to WWD, logowear remains popular because "wearing jerseys emblazoned with their favorite team...makes [fans] feel like they're part of the action." For owners of J.Lo-emblazoned loungewear, this action includes staring at pores in mirror, kvetching in Spanish, and finding new ways to be an US Weekly cover story.

Girly-Boys For A Better California
Yesterday California gubernatorial wannabe Arnold Schwarzenegger became the first self-professed metrosexual candidate in state history. At bait-layer Maureen Dowd's questioning, Arnold confessed his affinity for women's dresses, jewelry, and his prowess as a personal shopper. Campaign contributions are now accepted in cash, credit, or Canyon Ranch gift certificates.

For The Girl Who Has Everything:
Cockatiels--the new teacup poodle? In an effort to bring more domestic animals into restaurants, Flightquarters.com has launched their new line of shit-catchers for avians large and small. Just listen to the satisfied customers:

"Your product is very unique and makes Sweetie even
more special to have around. She goes to the office,
walks on the property and I can take her to our craft workshop.
The women there say she's a real Craft bird (Loves to pull pins out of our sewing.)
Sweetie knows if she has her diaper on she going on a little trip.
I believe it's fun for her and looks forward going out with Mom."
Signed, Catherine M. and Sweetie Bird

Crema Lita, Conde Nast Style
From a style spy at the Chelsea Crema Lita:
"Conde Nast Dining Services has ordered slices of Crema-Cake for dessert at lunch today. To enforce corporate pride (or to best fit in with the high-conception decor), they have stipulated the frosting must be in the official company colors. As lilac is not in Cremalita's confection repetoire, employees were toiling away on a custom batch for their biggest customer at 7pm last night. Soon they'll be requesting a personal in-house flavor." Vanilla Vogue? Creme de Cargo? Conde-licious.

About MegaStyles

Meghan Stier was a New York fashion editor until she moved to Cambridge, MA and decided to become a doctor. She, along with her new Birkenstock fetish, is working on her post-baccalaureate and has cancelled her Vogue subscription, although she still watches E! sometimes a lot.

She thinks Shakespearean characters make great names for pets, dislikes mesh Chinese slippers, and would like to make homemade mayonnaise one day but wonders if mayonnaise merits such effort.
