Okay, the headline is slightly misleading, but this is just to announce that, as of now, NOGOODFORME.COM is actually going to be found at NOGOODFORME.COM! For our latest, greatest content, rework your browser over there now or change your newsfeed to http://feeds.feedburner.com/nogoodforme/tYOS.

Service Announcement: We're Going Away For A Little Bit!

Yep, we're taking a little break from NOGOODFORME! No, we're not off for Fashion Week or anything like that, just doing a little back-end makeover that should make it easier to comment and load our site faster and enable all sorts of technical wizardrous goodness. In the meanwhile, though, things may get a little messy over here, so pardon our dust! We'll be turning comments off, so if you are just DYING to get in touch with us, reach us at editors (at) nogoodforme (dot) com.

We should be back in about a week, week and a half, with fun things like the latest Astro-Cinema post (Cancers, you finally have your day) and FALL FASHION CONCEPTS. I know you're all on the edge of your seats. In the meantime, why not peruse this YouTube vid of a puppy rolling on its back?

The nogoodforme Wayback In Time Machine: Guides to the Kinks and Red Lipstick, Pretty Pics of Pretty Rock Stars, Fashion-Centric Vids + When We Did Interviews With People Like St. Vincent

You know, normally we don't live in the past, but sometimes it's fun to raid our archives and rediscover stuff that even *we* forgot that we wrote. I mean, there have been MILLIONS of words written here! Lots to dig up! Anyway: here's what was up with us on the last week of June/first few days of July--one, two, three, even four years ago. CRAZY.

A YEAR AGO

LJ gives you a beginner's initiation into the wonderful world of the Kinks, which eventually lead to Ray Davies' induction into our Style Icons series. I was obsess-o about red lipstick and I thought pictures from amazeballs photog Tim Walker were super-pretty. I still think they are, but I'm over red lipstick. I discovered red lipstick is just too much responsibility for this woman, like cleavage and relationships that occur in close proximity to my physical location within a continuous period of time. I'm working on that last bit, but if that doesn't pan out, I may have to wield my red lipstick powers once again. And where was Liz Barker? She was probably surfing the ocean blue. That Liz Barker, she's so magical!

+ The Young Person's Guide to the Kinks

+ the nogoodforme Guide to Red Lipstick

+ Blink of an Eye: The Photography of Tim Walker

TWO YEARS AGO

It was more fashion news-y stuff at this point, but we did combine our YouTube sleuth skills with our love of stylee and made a list of our favorite fashion-centric videos. Would we still pick the same ones now? Also kind of funny to note that we hadn't color-coded our subheads yet. Who knew that I'd love bright, punchy yellow-orange so much?

+ nogoodforme Superlatives: Favorite fashion-centric videos

THREE YEARS AGO

We did interviews! With people like St. Vincent and lovelies like Tara from SWANClothing! What do you think? Should we try to do more interviews again? Who would you want us to ask impertinent questions of and get style and music tips from?

+ the nogoodforme Interview: St. Vincent

+ the nogoodforme.com interview: Tara of SWANclothing

FOUR YEARS AGO

Did you know that Liz is responsible for all the Jenny Lewis content in this blog? She is! I think she gets the trophy for the first unicorn mention as well. That Liz Barker! I told you, she's so magical!

+ Random Picture Entry: Jenny Lewis

One From The Heart, featuring Laura Jane Faulds!

adorelaura.jpg

My dear friend Andi (who I think goes mostly by "Andrew" now, but you can't teach an old dog new tricks, you know), writes a really killer personal blog called One From The Heart, which is cool and you should read it. Thanks to Andi, who is brilliant and amazing, I heard "The Sad Skinhead" by Faust when I was sixteen years old, and (evidently) never looked back.

Andi/Andrew's latest cool proj is called Adore, a feature on his website composed of All-Time Favorite Albums lists compiled by Andi's friends and inspirers. I'm totally honored to be included alongside musician Christina Carter, who inaugurated the column.

It's pretty weird that, after all these years, I've never actually posted a definitive "Top 10 Favourite Albums" list to the Internet, so I am grateful to Andi for presenting me with the opportunity. Thanks Bro!

(You can read my list HERE.)

PS: What are YOUR All-Time Favorite Albums? Leave a comment letting us know!

Happy TELL SIX PEOPLE ABOUT NOGOODFORME Day!

As Kat already told everybody, today is nogoodforme.com's 6th birthday! That's 18 in blog years, which is awesome, cuz it means next year we'll be old enough to legally drink and can finally stop sneaking swigs of Boone's Farm in the 7-Eleven parking lot. Anyway, because ponies and pink Porsches are such overrated birthday gifts, we're going to ask that you give us something immaterial and vastly more meaningful.

BIRTHDAYBANNER.jpg

How easy is that? You could skywrite it, shout it from the rooftops, get our logo tattooed on your forehead - or just keep it simple and bring it up over root beer floats/Shirley Temples/Jack-n-Gingers later on today. Or you could blog about it. Blogs are great. We love blogs!

Oh, and if you can somehow spread the word to any of the following people, we will give you $666 million and take you out to dinner at the restaurant of your choice in the New York, Los Angeles, or Toronto area:

-Anna Faris
-Mindy Kaling
-Chuck Klosterman
-Seth Meyers
-Krysten Ritter
-Michael Showalter
-Charlyne Yi

If this all works out, it'll be just like that Faberge ad, and all our lives will be the better for it:

P.S. We hope you've been enjoying Style Icons: Part Deux!

Take the nogoodforme Reader Survey! And maybe win a cool Boy Meets Girl t-shirt!

We've been in a constant state of psyched-ness since Tuesday night, when voting clearly worked for once in America. Maybe you are too? Do you want to make your opinion known again? We're just a lil ol' fashion blog, but we want to know what you, dear readers, want to see more of here. As a thank-you, if you give us your email (which we WON'T do anything spammy with), you'll be entered in a drawing to win a cutie-pie t-shirt from Boy Meets Girl, which recently had a tote bag featured in this week's episode of "Gossip Girl." (And by the way, not really digging Jenny's new quasi-couture-meets-Avril Lavigne mall punk stylee. Why are there so many Jenny storylines this season? She annoys me.) The t-shirt looks like the one below, only ours is brown with a gold logo. (It's pretty much the cutest logo ever, no?) It's dope, super-soft and well-cut; you'll like it...and it could be yours if you fill in a survey. But even if you don't want a t-shirt, we would still dig if you filled it out anyway. We honestly can't wait to hear from you to help better direct our content!

TO TAKE OUR READER SURVEY:
HAVE FUN HERE.

A t-shirt from Boy Meets Girl, a variation of which you could possibly win from nogoodforme:

THANK YOU.

V O T E !

Americans! Tomorrow! Do it! You know you want to!

New Yorkers: Polls are open from 6am to 9pm. They anticipate long lines, so consider voting early. You can check your voting location here or by calling 1-866-VOTE-NYC. And remember, if something goes wonky and you're not on the list, you can always request a provisional ballot that will be counted once your vote is verified. And here's a fashion tip: there's an obscure, not-really-enforced-but-you-never-know electioneering law on the books prohibiting people from wearing stuff like political t-shirts or buttons within 100 feet of voting area entrances. So you may want not want to wear your campaign t-shirt. Or at least wear a hoodie or something over it. New York is so weird, yo.

P.S. - I think I am totally freaking out.

Setting the Record Straight!

Um, this is not really part of what we do here, but it's come to my attention that there are some problematic political ads running on our site here and there. Our ad server is automated, so we do our best to filter out those types of ads -- but unfortunately they do pop up and it takes a few hours till we can filter them out. Whatever, man! So, anyway: we just wanted to make it clear that, despite what some of the ads that pop up on our pages could make you think, the American citizens at nogoodforme.com are pro-Obama in this election season, and if I lived in California still, I'd be voting no on Proposition 8.

Obama-hope.jpgnoonprop8.jpg

That is all. Carry on!

To Go: "Beautifully Worn" Fashion Photo Show, Opening Reception Oct. 15, 2008

beautifullyworn_letterhead_smaller.jpg

The rock keeps on rolling at nogoodforme.com. No sooner than we recovered from the bliztkrieg of fun known as Spirit Animal House than we got on the proverbial ball to curate and organize our very first art show! We are super-stoked and very proud to announce that BEAUTIFULLY WORN is going up next Wednesday, October 15th, 2008 at NYC boutique Clarabella. And we graciously invite all of you lovely people to come to the opening reception that very same day from 6-9pm, where there will be refreshments and two of the nogoodforme troika in attendance! We are truly amped to show you all the photos we collected from various good souls who sent in images and words responding to our question "What do you love to wear?" The results will charm the pants off of you, we guarantee it. If you can't make the opening, the show will continue to grace Clarabella's walls until November 30, when we take down the photos and the apocalypse comes. Or something like that.
