Pippa's British Bootie Envy!
Ever since she made her debut appearance in the public eye, Pippa Middleton has been a tabloid sensation. From the whispers that suggested she stole the show at the royal wedding, upstaging her sis Kate when she dutifully trailed behind her carrying her train during the nuptials, wearing the form fitting gown designed especially for her by Alexander McQueen,...to the recent 'bootie envy' that is said to be sending women everywhere in droves to their local plastic surgeons in hopes of getting a boost to lift their derrieres a' la Pippa style!
For years, boob jobs, nose jobs & face lifts have been the most sought after procedures when it comes to physical enhancements, however, as of late with the ever escalating popularity of celebs such as Jennifer Lopez & Kim Kardashian, buttocks related aesthetic procedures or 'ass'thetics' ha ha...has been taking precedence for about the past five years. Grant it, Pippa has an awesome figure, but seriously what is up with the website I just happened upon called 'pippasass.com'? I just don't get the whole 'ass envy' concept...do you?

Spotlight Saturday - Royal Ensemble On Display
The Royal hoopla is still all a buzz, as it was noted in the news today that the complete wedding ensemble worn by Kate Middleton, accessories included (shoes, earrings, bouquet & silk tulle veil), is being displayed at Buckingham Palace as of yesterday, Friday, July 22nd and through to October 3rd of this year, as part of the palace's annual Summer opening. In the spotlight once again, the ivory and white satin gown designed by Sarah Burton for the Alexander McQueen fashion house. Visitors will be able to view up close and personal, the hand made lace applique that was made for the bodice and skirt using techniques that dated back to almost two centuries ago. Middleton's gown had intricate patterns of rose, thistle, shamrock and daffodil incorporated into the design to represent every nation in the United Kingdom. The garment truly is a work of art...

MOD Monday
Enough of the Royal hoopla... it's time to get back on track here at Retro Threadz as we bring you Mod Monday once again! Today we're going to talk about fashion icon of the 60's, Edie Sedgwick...
Edie was an American born actress, model, socialite and heiress who is mostly remembered for being Andy Warhol's 'muse' & was even considered a 'superstar' after appearing in several of his short art house films. Edie's life was the epitome of the 'poor little rich girl' who had it all but had nothing really being that she came from an extremely troubled home. All of this was said to have led to her battle with anorexia and substance abuse.
She met Warhol, the avante garde filmmaker/artist in March of 1965 and he immediately took a liking to her and set out to make her a star however, none of Warhol's films were commercially successful.
Edie may have failed on the big screen but she left her mark as a true fashion icon for her era as she was the epitome of the swinging 60's scene and a true founder of the beatnik style. She was young and definitely hip and no one had ever seen anything quite like her daring to wear nothing but a leotard, with opaque tights & a sweater! This fashion trend took off like wild fire!
It was reported in 1971 that Edie stopped abusing drugs and alcohol for a short time however, on November 15th, 1971 at the ripe old age of 28, she was said to have died from what was noted as 'undetermined/accident/suicide'. She was definitely the life of every party and lived hers in the fast lane...
She became a vintage legend style icon and even today, women try to emulate her fashion statement with a more contemporary flair.
*Random Fact: Actress Kyra Sedgwick is Edie Sedgwick's cousin
