Chaser. Please.

Larla may be pushing 60, but she knows she has more fashion sense than the millennials she sees day in and day out, running around town wearing what amounts to pajamas. As an empty nester, she has time to browse “blogs” online and learn about the latest trends, like Capri pants and voluminous animal print blouses. Larla once watched an episode of Arrested Development when her son was living in the basement and installed the Netflix on her TV, and felt a strong affinity for Lucille Ostero. |
This thread just gets better and better! |

Jenni Kayne
Lives in Pacific Palisades but is a bit embarrassed by it suburban feel so just says she lives in “West LA” wishes she were a creative but gave up working 15 years ago when her first son was born. She does decorate her craftsman style home, though abs when asked she will say she’s a “decorator” Married to a commercial real estate guy who went to university of arizona. She went to USC before it was hard to get into, but she still thinks with all the tutoring, SAT prep etc her kids should get into UCLA or May be Stanford. She loves the beach and her book club where they are focused on Black Lives Matter and learning about their white privilege. She buys organic only and drinks too much wine. When not in her 450 dollar Jenni Kayne cashmere sweater she’s in Ath leisure from LuLu or Sweaty Beaty. They have a place in Tahoe and with remote learning are spending a lot of time there. She feels guilty about her white Range Rover and is going to ask her husband for a Tesla SUV for Christmas. She’s friends with her teens and “they can tell her anything” she ok with weed, as “ no one ever got violent or aggressive on weed” and she worries about her son who seems like the frat boy type like his dad. Her daughter rides English and is a decent Hunter Jumper. |
Larla loves sporting pricey athleisure outfits, but is a devoted feminist and social justice warrior and cannot in good conscience buy Lululemon after the past scandals involving insensitive comments made by management. She feels good about her Athleta gear which, while surely also produced overseas in sweatshops under less-than-ideal conditions, but at least she can rest easy knowing that nobody affiliated with the company got in trouble for implying someone was fat! Larla wishes that Athleta had a larger, more recognizable logo so her friends and strangers on the jogging trail could easily ascertain that she does not wear (gasp) Old Navy workout clothes. |
| While I find this thread clever at points, it has an undercurrent of mean and full of shit insecurity to it too |
Agree. Fun, but also mean and mostly inaccurate. |
Wow, this sounds a lot like my cousin in PP. But she rarely drinks wine because there's so much sugar in it. And her second place is in Park City.

I think we found the two Chico's shoppers!!! |
Oh, to be a young Hypebeast! You're a new GW student from Westchester County and are ROCKING those black, knitted sneakers to class, honey! Even the international students approve of your fashion taste. You secretly blast "Balenciaga" by Cheat Codes in your newest edition AirPods as you walk to class in those shoes. You want to be a DJ or a music producer, and your dad built you a recording studio in your basement. You're studying business at GW because you don't just want fans, you want to make BANK! You really admire Kanye as a businessman and would have totally volunteered on his presidential campaign if they were looking for someone. You're super bummed that your study abroad to Barcelona was canceled due to COVID; they have some sick clubs and DJs you could have seen live. |
Wrong again, as usual. |
But seriously, I wouldn’t call this thread mean. It’s just pointing out that everybody in our crazy little bit of the world has SOMETHING going on. That’s just the truth! I’ve been called out in this thread, at least in a couple of lines. I can laugh at myself—it IS funny! |
