Speaking of fashion, two of our favorite bloggers, Tom and Lorenzo, were recently featured in a fabulous New York Times interview.  I love that, after 6 years of blogging major events like NewYork's Fashion Week, they still get starstruck.  (NY Times)

I'm gonna take advantage of this space to ask for some help, guys.  Metric Jenn's dog Shoes is participating in a contest called the Fido Casting Call 2.  If you have 30 seconds, please click this link to vote for him!  For every vote clicked, the contest will donate a dollar to Dog Guides Canada, so everyone wins here!  The contest ends September 10th.

One more contest request, then it's back to the links.  Home Instead Senior Care is offering a free cruise to a deserving caregiver.  Clara, a woman whose husband has early onset Alzheimer's, could really use our help to win that free vacation.  Click here to vote through September 15th.  And thank you for your help!

Back to your regularly scheduled links!  Look, Muppet balloon animals!  If I had a Swedish Chef balloon, I'd be the happiest kid on Earth.  (Dog and Pony Show)

It's tough to be a woman right now for so many reason. Not least of these problems would be the objectification of our bodies. Even things you would think no one would care about, like labia. Dammit. (The Frisky)

This, however, makes me smile. I know, and have known, too many people with cancer. It is incredibly sweet, and probably motivated by money but WHATEVER, that Mattel would make a bald Barbie doll. (The Gloss)

MetricJenn mentioned something about moving to Sweden today. Once I show her this link, it will be ALL OVER. She will be ON IT. (Time)

Even cooler than clubbing on your lunch hour is hearing about firsts from badass women like Liz Phair. And I mean firsts pertaining to sex and kissing. Rawr! (Rookie)

I don't know about you, but I spend quite a bit of time trying to forget things I hear and read. If you would like to have a memory LIKE A BOSS, then here are some tips for you. (Lifehacker)
