Zac Posen for Target starring The Like by Gia Coppola? How did I miss this? The song is kind of cute, but as usual it's mostly about the hair, Tennessee Thomas and pretty outfits.

want all of it, obviously

Well, it's been four years since The Like's last album. Although, when it comes to The Like, I'm inclined to feel that their albums are hardly point- it's more about the outfits. Nonetheless, they have recently announced a change in lineup, as well as a new record in the works. As Buzz Bands reports: "frontwoman Z Berg and drummer Tennessee Thomas remain from the original lineup; bassist Laena Geronimo has replaced Charlotte Froom, who departed to work on other projects; and Reni Lane joins to play keyboards. The Like’s new Mark Ronson-produced album will be released in early 2010."

However, the band still appear to enjoy taking lots of photos of themselves in cute outfits.* And Tennessee is still freaking adorable. So provided this continues, I'm okay with the change.

*although someone needs to have a quiet word to Z about the pitfalls of pleather.

geronimo fall 2009

oh my goodness this is exciting! just when i was wondering how much longer it would be until we would get a glimpse at geronimo's fall collection, here it is! i'm not entirely convinced by the maxi dresses, but the rust and ivory mini dresses are perfect. the collar details lend them a retro schoolgirl air i can't resist. the plaid one-piece is sweet too, but i must admit that i prefer the bikini in the same fabric from the spring collection. and it seems that we can now confirm that as i had suspected, miss jenny lewis' recent hot pants and blazer combos are indeed by geronimo.
