Here’s a spanking new video hot off the presses! Who needs big budgets when you can just shoot real women of every age, shape, size, and ethnicity? Here’s a homage to cool chicks everywhere (shouts to New York gals Bijules, DJ Lindsay, and Anoma Whittaker who have a brief cameo). Fresh off the heels of Lena Dunhams acceptance speech for Best Comedy TV Series, here’s “Girls”, the new track from HBO’s Girls. — (Text by Jauretsi)
As 2012 wraps up, we thought we’d check into the cultural zeitgeist via SNL and determine the most liked skits of the year. Here’s the countdown! Happy New Year’s readers!
(1) ”Disney Housewives” (seen above). All the awesome drama of “Real Housewives” with the ultimate princesses… Lindsay Lohan was pretty perfect in this.
(2) “Undecided Voter” - Remember all those Americans who were completely clueless leading up to the election? SNL took a stab at all those undecided voters in this funny piece. See here.

(3) “Puppet Class” - Bill Hader goes hilariously dark in this sketch as a war vet. We heard Howard Stern was a big fan of this sketch. See here.
(4) “Lazy Sunday” - Another classic jam by the duo Andy Samberg and Chris Parnell. Enjoy the man-date! See here.
(5) “Girl You Wish We Hadn’t Started a Conversation with at a Party” - This is one of those skits that makes you say, “who is that new girl on SNL?!” Well, her name is Cecily Strong. See here.

Gabby Mejia is all things nightlife. Having booked A-list DJ’s such as Atrak to Arthur Baker for spaces like New York’s Submercer and Standard Hotel, Gabby is recently branching out on her own. Being a general globe-trotting DJ herself, the Philipine-American has quite a few things to shop for, including packing a suitcase of designer bikinis for sunny gigs. In our first episode of Consolidate, Gabby opens her home and shares some goodies she nabbed on eBay, including Lanvin Lipstick, Headphones by AIAIAI, Costume Jewelry Earrings, Record Needles by Ortofon, and her lucky DJ jacket, a Muhammad Ali sweater from the Adidas series.

One of the things I appreciate about certain fashion brands is the desire to take it back… I mean reeeeally take it back to the origin of the piece. Instead of harping backstage at glitzy fashion shows or shooting a white backdrop photo shoot, the gang at Mulberry went doc style. Their subjects are real women, and real grandmothers such as 77 year old Beatrice and a local gang of highly skilled knitters from Eribé, a Scottish knitwear design house who brought the creative Mulberry director Emma Hill’s designs to life. Each piece made for the Mulberry A/W 2012 collection was made by hand by one of these women.

The London event celebrated Beatrice by inviting her to Harrod’s (a place she’d never seen her whole life). During the fab affair, London’s Telegraph reported that Beatrice just sat in the world famous shop knitting the Aztec-inspired tassel scarf proudly on sale in the Mulberry concession. God bless grannies worldwide.
