Another Saturday at Nordstrom, and look! It’s Faith, the Hot Nordstrom Girl! I was so happy to see her that I got the BFF to take some pictures.
Faith has an internship with a hot L.A. designer but for now, she is still at Nordstrom. You can’t see from this picture, but she was wearing the leopard print wedge clodhoppers by Jeffrey Campbell, which I correctly identified without being solicited to do so.
If I could wake up tomorrow and be twenty, I’d get a hairdo like Faith’s. If I did it now, my BFF was quick to point out, I’d just look like I had cancer.
Here, I’m wearing: H&M jacket, Rag and Bone trousers, t-shirt from my t-shirt drawer, and tiger claw earring (ha ha for you, Shelly!) If you want to gush about how awesome I look, please call me “Judy.” Thanks. xo
We moved on from Faith to the lingerie department, where my BFF hesitated to buy some racy stockings until I screamed “MEN LOVE THESE!” which drew the attention of a grey-haired shopper nearby.
The BFF bought some other items, including a pair of knickers by Elle MacPherson, even though she couldn’t find the matching bra. If you knew my BFF, you’d know how unthinkable this is. She will never consider buying lingerie unless it’s a matching set. I was amazed. She explained that she could wear the knickers with a dress that didn’t require a bra underneath. Aha!
Personally, I don’t give a shit if my undergarments are a matching set. Black goes with everything; white is bad. Those are my only rules for lingerie. But I’m so nice that I spent at least half an hour online to track down the matching Elle MacPherson bra and here it is:
I may be an awful person, but I’m a really good friend.
I had that haircut when I was 16. I’ve never had an Elle MacPherson bra.
I want to get on a plane NOW just to go to Cali and shop with you. NOW.
I don’t wear a bra, except for when I do yoga, and then it is a yoga top.
I would look ridiculous at any age with my hair cut like that.
I cannot condone that haircut – Alice Dellal is as annoying a trustafarian as any we have ever complained of here, and without her your young friend would never have gone for the recent-brain-surgery-victim look.
You are looking pretty good though Judes.
My BFF has that haircut, possibly a bit spikier. And yes, she looks amazing (but then she is 7 years younger than me)
The most comfortable bra of my life was an Elle Macpherson. Sad day when the wire came out, due to own laziness in not using special lingerie bag for washing.
Judy you look fab. I had that haircut one night after a party at uni which had me pinned down on the floor and being given a mohican. I look great for a while but it really itched when it grew back and my blond hair is darker where it was shaved!
Judy,I love your Star of David necklace! So rad, where did you find it? Also, I can’t stop staring at your slender hips in those trousers. You look incredible.
I don’t like floral prints. I don’t mean the bra so much, I mean Faith’s dress. I know they’re all the rage right now, but you won’t catch me dead in a floral print. I have no idea where my distaste for them originates, but there you have it.
I’m with Skye, the ‘Alice Dellal’ is like the ‘Rachel’ of late-2000s hipster children’s haircuts. Your friend looks pretty anyway (nice hoop earrings and eyeliner), but I’d much rather look like you.
That’s one nice-looking bra- lovely print, though I’d love it even more if it wasn’t a bra but some more substantial form of upper-body coverage. And black=good, white=bad is my underwear philosophy too!
He, he, I had the same haircut in 1993-4, then again in 2002, but blond and shaved section migrated from side to back. Poor Alice took all the credits for new generations, they don’t know shit.
I have one floral bra for summer, everybody is always curious if it’s a bikini top. I admit that I wear it cos’ I like the attention, so what….
The hair brings back my youth watching Bow Wow Wow vids on Canadian TV (because my parents didn’t have cable, ergo no MTV, and good thing we lived closeish to the border).
Judy, you are adorable. And nice! Such a lovely bra. Price?
I only wear black underwear. I have 25 pairs of identical underwear from H&M.
If I should happen to be left with a grey or white pair, it throws my whole aura off. Neurotic!
Hipster Runoff did a post about those haircuts recently:

The demi cup bra, my boobs would fall out of that thing. Full coverage please. Also teh girl is cute, the haircut, yuch. It is one of those things you can get away with if you are very young however so good for her.
Speaking of Nordstrom, I was in their shoe sdepartment last Friday and it was a horrifying selection of ugliness. I can’t imagine that with teh vast selection of shoes out there those were all that could be. The buyer is doing a very poor job. I only wanted one pair. And I am a shitty hoarder.
I want to shop with you too, Sister! You look better than the 20-year old.
That IS a pretty bra — if only I knew what my correct size was…
Faith is pretty hot and now I’d like to find the Nordstrom’s and show her my lingerie. Yes to black undergarments all the time, maybe white if you want to really now you’re on your period.
Why, Faith, why? The haircut, gigantic hoop earrings (hoops in general are horrid), blazer with a cheap floral! You’re clearly very pretty, and even though pretty can afford to wear ugly, this is just slumming.
Judy, you look acceptable. But what is with the star of David? Does it get you better service?
kate – It’s because I’m a fucking jew, that’s why! And because it’s a gift from my BFF. But I’m also wearing a St. Christopher medal. If you want to be anti-Semitic, you should say, “Does it get you a a discount?”
Romeo – Well, you don’t know what you’re missing.
WendyB – Not unless you call me Judy!
skye – But she looks beautiful with that hair! Maybe if you didn’t have to know about Alice…
Penny Dreadful – I handwash everything. It’s an illness.
Confidence…it’s so attractive and graceful. Lucky girl.
Sister- fellow jewish girl here. no anti-semitic nothin. just a bad sarah silverman slip-up.
Matching Bra and Knickers is the Law Of The Land here….
I once gathered up my body pride and sailed
into a lingerie shop here, with dreams of increasing
my frenchiehood…and tried on a tremendous set…
which would have only set me back
oh
132 Euros.
ah.
dreams.

Judy, you are fucking killing it. This is sick. Badass!
Ummm…what am I missing? =P
You are, without doubt or question, the best BFF I could ever, ever hope for.
