Patience, photographers:

I'm sure Taryn Manning would LOVE to mime for you her feelings about the new T-Mobile Sidekick, right after she's finished with her signature silent performance, "Well, Ma'am, Looks Like Your Transmission's Blown And Your Alternator's Busted. That'll Be Five Grand, Plus Labor." It's really stirring. Especially the part where she realizes she's trapped in an invisible box with an angry, broke customer.
I think I know the answer to this already, but must EVERYTHING be accompanied by an Ironic Headband?

Seriously? EVERYTHING? Because this does not look good. In fact, this particular Ironic Headband looks like a piece of ratty string she tied around her head and reminds me of nothing so much as the time Heather and I were playing pool at a local watering hole and a crazy dude with literally a shoelace tied around his head in exactly this manner came up to Heather and licked her ear. He was Derelicte before Derelicte was chic, if you know what I mean, and I don't know if that's exactly the moment Ms Manning here wants to invoke. Judging from the expression on her face, I'd guess that it wasn't.

Hustle and Fug

Somebody really needs to rescue Taryn Manning from fashion Fergatory.

Which is to say, purgatory + stuff Fergie did to herself in 2005.

Taryn Manning would be awfully close to being a Courtney Peldon -- as in, "Who are you and why are you being foisted upon us?" -- had she not managed to appear in the Britney Spears spectacular Crossroads.

But if you haven't seen that movie (and if not then you must, if only to marvel at how Britney will never, ever be that adorable again in her life), then you would certainly be forgiven for walking up to her at this event and asking her how much she charges for a shoe-shine, or perhaps tossing her a shiny quarter in exchange for the afternoon edition of the paper.

What would really be useful, though, is if a tailor accosted her and hemmed her pants so that they didn't appear to be toe-stalking predators.

Tailors can be your friends, starlets. Please, all of you, take that to heart, and pay heed: Ultra long pants do not make a wee girl look tall. They just don't. Fork over $20 of your paycheck and take them someplace where a needle will make them work for you.

Fug Mile

Didn't Taryn Manning get the memo?

No one is wearing their kitchen curtains in public anymore! And certainly not with a ratty old fur. This particular Fug Girl doesn't have an ethical problem with wearing fur, theoretically -- in fact, she wore a vintage fur this weekend -- but it seems like one should do ones best to make sure that ones fur does not appear to have spend most of its life balled up under Grandma Mimma's spare bed down in Broward County. If a furry little creature had to die for your coat, at least make sure the poor thing leaves a good-looking corpse.

I wish I knew what to say about the shoes. The scrunchy, white, BeDazzled boots. She looks like she wrapped her ankles in Bounty paper towels. Let's never speak of them again.
