nogoodforme.TV is For Reals: Our Channel At Mogulus.com!

nogoodforme.com gets more and more multimedia everyday! We are pleased as punch to announce that we're a featured channel over at Mogulus.com! Mogulus is a new broadband platform that broadcasts both live and on-demand video content -- think of it as souped-up public access television or a DIY cable network, only it's all on the Internerd. We have our own little home over in Mogulusville, and it's super-pretty; please do check it out, embed our player in your profiles, keep it on all the time, basically watch t.v. for eight hours a day like your mother told you NOT to. Yeah! That'll get her back for crampin' your six-year old style!

We've featured ALL of the nogoodforme.tv video content we've already shared here, as well as a few more things that haven't made it to el bloggerino yet. (Don't worry, YouTube diehards, we'll keep putting things there.) You can watch the videos as one endless loop, or you can dominate over playlist fascism by selecting our content through the On Demand option. Plus, sometimes we're (or at least I'm) on there during the day, so peep up in the adjoining chat room and maybe we shall say hello. Enjoy, my pretties!

(By the way...have any other ideas for videos you may want to see here? Comment below and let us know!)

Don't Forget: Submit to Our "Beautifully Worn" Photo Show

Beautiful procrastinators, don't forget to submit to our photo show, "Beautifully Worn," which will be on show at Clarabella later this fall! We've gotten totally great submissions so far, ranging from band t-shirts to couture dresses to everything in between and from all over the world. We've gotten simple snapshots to beautifully art-directed photo shoots. The diversity and all the little stories have been remarkable -- and yes, we want more! So please do submit, and if you can't make the date, please let us know you're interested so we can keep an eye out for you.

nogoodforme.com presents: BEAUTIFULLY WORN

Oh, nogoodforme.com! Do you ever sleep? To be perfectly honest, NO. Three days after Spirit Animal House came, went, and RULED, we're so done with hibernating (We're not bears! We're wolves, turtles, alley cats, and Logan Echolls!), and are all impossibly excited for our next endeavor into the wild world of IRL: Beautifully Worn, the photo show we'll be curating at our beloved Clarabella.

In the grand tradition of nogoodforme.com, we hope that Beautifully Worn can provide the fashion blogosphere with a majorly subverted, hella scrappy, and decidedly AVANT-WACK take on the ever-entertaining format of "pictures of people wearing clothes" (not to be confused with "People Take Pictures of Eachother," which is a song by the Kinks).

You know how The Sartorialist is the most boring website on the entire Internet because everybody who makes it on is a fashion editor, and whenever you boredly e-wander onto it you just get irritated because it's like, "Well, yeah, no kidding Carine Roitfeld has good style!"- well, Beautifully Worn is going to be the exact opposite of that. Not only do we hope that YOU, our faithful readers, will send along photos of yourself in your favorite outfit to ngfmphotoshow (at) gmail.com, but we hope that you'll pass the word along to everybody you know, the weirder the better: we're talking dads, grandmothers, great-grandmothers, three-year-old cousins, hippie art teachers, therapists, grandmother's therapists, accountants, morticians, and (if at all possible) Michael Showalter.

All pertinent information can be found in the lovely image displayed below, and don't forget that the deadline for submissions is Saturday, September 20th (don't worry, I'm sure we'll remind you again).

beautifullyworn_smallflyer_color copy.jpg

PS: Because I am an incredibly nice person, here are some questions that might assist you in brainstorming up your perfect perspective on Beautifully Worn Chic:

-If you were turned into a cartoon character and could only be drawn wearing one outfit forever, what would it be?
-Which is more important: fashion or function?
-High-concept, low-concept, or no-concept?
-If you were stranded on the LOST desert island with only one outfit, what would you hope for it to be?
-If the love of your life showed up at your front door tomorrow morning and told you that you had five minutes to get ready for the date of your dreams, what would you grab?

Get snapping! Kat, Liz and myself are all chomping at the bit to see what you babes have in store.

nogoodforme Goes Art-tastic: We Want You (or Pictures of You) For Our Photo Show!

If the fashion blogosphere were like high school, nogoodforme.com would've started out like that quiet girl who sat in the back of class, doing her homework and her own thing while doodling Smiths and Cure lyrics on her folder and drawling the occasional smart-alecky comment, kind of like Daria Morgendorfer back in the day. (Curious aside: when the hell are they going to get "Daria" on DVD, man?) These days, though, I feel like we've hit that phase where we're applying to college and doing all sorts of crazy extracurriculars that make car pooling a nightmare and keeps us working at all odd hours and then some. We're way busy, especially since we're busting our arses for our Spirit Animal House party. (COME! BUY A RAFFLE TICKET!) But we've also got other special events in the pipeline that we've been itching to tell you about. Which is why we are totally stoked, excited, ripped, and full of beans to announce that we are curating a photography show at Clarabella later in the fall! And we are even more amped because WE WANT YOU TO BE IN IT.

Here's the deal: Send us digital photos of you wearing your favorite item of clothing. It's really that simple. The picture can be anything you want: simple, glamorous, mundane, artful, abstract, heavily art-directed, utterly plain, humorous, dramatic, goofy, "just a snapshot" or whatever. Let your heart and your eye lead you to what feels right for this little assignment. (Although, please, at least be clothed!)

Send us a digital photo (no higher than 300dpi and about 1500 to 3000 pixels wide should be plenty of image size) to ngfmphotoshow@gmail.com. Give us your name, location (city and state), the name of the item that is your favorite (you know, like "yellow flip-flops" or "my fanciest Balenciaga dress ever.") And for extra sugar credit, give us a small bit about why it's your favorite or what happened to you the last time you wore it.

Our only requirements, besides the aforementioned pieces of information, are that it is a photo, and it is a photo that you took (or someone took of you.) In other words, don't send us 'professional' images from a catalog, another website or whatever that are copyrighted by someone else.

We'll include as many images as we can fit on the walls and in the store, and we may even be ambitious and print up a limited edition catalog. (We're on the road to overachieverville if we manage that!) This photo call is open until September 15, 2008 and it is open to anyone (dudes and spirit animals included), so please spread the word!

We are excited to see what you lovelies come up with!

xo Kat, Liz and Laura Jane

EDIT: We have EXTENDED THE DEADLINE to SEPT. 20, 2008.

Spirit Animal House: THE RAFFLE IS OPEN!

Welcome to the nogoodforme.com Spirit Animal House Fortnight: two weeks of SAH-centric coverage so we can tell you all about the multitudes of style righteousness that will culminate on September 9, 2008, when a large group of very fun, very cute people will converge upon Pianos at night to celebrate their inner totem with drink, song and hopefully some dancing and making out! Yeah!

Now, I know some of you won't be able to make it to our soiree, so we decided to spread the wealth of good times and open up most of our charity raffle to anyone anywhere with a PayPal account. (There will be a few prizes that are event-only, and tickets for those will be $5, available at the event only.) For the small price of $2 an entry, you could have a chance to win some amazing prizes. How amazing? Why don't you glimpse a few of them here? (We'll keep adding to the page, so keep checking in -- although you can trust us to tell you ALL ABOUT IT, I'm sure.) They've been donated by the incredible likes of Habitude, Mociun, Blood is the New Black, SwanDiamondRose, Melanie Auld, Frozen Peas Accessories, Danielle Petrosa and so, so many more. Proceeds from the raffle go to Brooklyn Animal Resource Coalition (NYC), PAWS/LA (Los Angeles), Animal Rights Kollective ARK II (Toronto), so it's for a good cause. Satisfy your inner gambler and court the favor of Dame Chance! You have till September 9th to get your tickets and enter the raffle drawing to win. Good luck!

Look! Some of our prizes (l to r): Melanie Auld Park bag, Danielle Petrosa Pattie Boyd necklace, SwanDiamondRose tote.

Spring Cleaning: We have comments, we need new blood in our blogroll

As you may or may not have noticed, we have comments now (FINALLY) at nogoodforme, which we are excited about! And, as you may or may not have noticed, our blogroll disappeared because we upgraded to the newer version of our publishing platform. We kind of needed to revamp that anyway, so we are asking you, our beautiful readers: What blogs or websites do you read that you think we would like? Naturellement, leave us a handy-dandy comment!

Here is a picture of Charlotte Rampling, just because:

Some Technical Difficulties!

Doh! Our editors at nogoodforme.com email address freaked out late last night, so anyone who sent us a message to that address in the past two days may want to resend again. And, yeah, people can stop sending us email with 10MB attachments. It's kind of annoying and it won't make us fall in love with you. Pretty please?

Happy Birthday To Us!

It's a pretty euphoric day for me aujourd'hui. Not only did I finish my nonthesis film shoot for school, but it is our FIFTH BIRTHDAY today! Yes, we are officially five years old, which means in blog years we are about 25 years old perhaps. (I feel like blog years are like dog years, you know? Our first year we were just learning how to walk, our second year we were all kicky and fun, our third year we got all broody and had an identity crisis, and last year we "came of age," just like a twenty-year old.) Five is a very special number, so we are psyched to roll out some fun features this week to "celebrate." But for now enjoy this picture from Marie Antoinette, buy yourself a cupcake and light yourself a pretend sparkler!

A Friendly Reminder

Are you totally bored because it's the weekend and all your favorite bloggers are too busy eating french toast and flea-marketing to update? Well, worry not! Here at nogoodforme.com, we've always got your best interest in mind. Go ahead and stave off the weekend blahs by reading or revisiting Laura Jane's ever-engrossing Magnum Opus, The Men, I Mean Dudes, Behind the Magic.

And then tell your friends to read it too! Especially if your friends happen to be Lauren Conrad.
