Rated X - The Panty Party @ Don Hills - HOT!

This one is becoming quickly one of my favorites.
It happens every first Saturday of the month under the eye of invincible Michael T.
Glam, 80s, Trendy, Alternative, Fashionistas, Hipsters, Very Cool and Not So Cool, insanely strong drinks, bar dancers and naked people LA-ing on stage during the now infamous Hot Body Contest.
What more could you wish for?

Maserati Quattroporte - HOT

There are two things I don't really care about - cars and TVs.
The one above, however, is one of those few that make me somewhat emotional when I see it.

Tod's Lacettos - NOT HOT

I don't care who is the CD of Tod's, may it be Derek Lam or anyone else.
As long as they deliver.
And the reason why I loathe these Bilbao Lacettos is not because I don't like idea of loafers in general.
It's because when I look at them I see the biggest looser walking down Ocean Drive, with full wallet and subzero level of style.

Public School NYC - HOT

I knew from the day one that this is hot stuff.
But only now, when the jacket that I've been trying at Barneys for months and never decided to purchase, now that it's gone for good, I know I am a looser.
Whoever got it - you win. You're good.
