Last week I was deeply, entirely obsessed with winning this delicately embroidered floral top from the excellent eBay boutique Spanish Moss Vintage. I watched it every day for six days, waiting to pounce, until the price entered what was for me a completely unacceptable realm ($189 for a vintage top? No, no, no.). But I was miffed. I'd wanted that shirt, I'd even done that freaky shopping mania thing with it, where you fantasize a movie-love-story-like montage of all of the places you'd wear it and with what pieces in your wardrobe. Anyway, I had to let it go. Then, I was in Urban Outfitters the other night, and I saw this cool woven blouse, which is a similar idea to the original I'd lost. Sure it's not as intricate, but it's got the same '70s-flowers-and-fishnetting effect, and at just $58, I could buy it in nearly every color and still not pay as much as I would have for the one on eBay.

All editors are obsessed with Comme des Garçons parfums-and when I say all editors, I mean not just beauty editors, but editors from every department: fashion, art, photo, whatever. Everyone at Lucky asks me about Comme des Garçons. Everyone NOT at Lucky asks me about Comme des Garçons.

And I have few answers. The gatekeepers, the chic Comme des Garçons publicists, are as elusive and mysterious (and, I'd imagine, slinky) as jungle cats: While other companies messenger over bags and bags of products a month, in the past calendar year, Comme des Garçons has sent over exactly one fragrance (the new Play, pictured above, in the bottle with the scowling heart), and completely ignored a dozen e-mails and phone calls requesting other scents/candles/information/whatever. As is often tragically and pathetically the case in my personal life, this indifference and aloofness serves only to increase my desire.

My haircolor is looking SO yellow and gross lately (I tried to think of a celebrity with a comparable color, but could only come up with Janice the guitar-wielding Muppet, left). I've always used a purple shampoo to reduce brassiness, but it's not working as miraculously as it used to-I suspect hard water, but who knows?! I need a new strategy and I need it fast.

While I love a massage, what I really love-the genuinely relaxing part-is the waiting room. The lounge chairs, the wafting music, the teas, the lemons floating in the special water, everybody shuffling around in robes like 19th-century hysterics gone to take the cure at McLean, the air misty with estrogen. Heaven. Better than the massage, the facial, whatever, no? Discuss.
