Are You a VIP?

Well, if you are, or just want to be, do we have the Craigslist job listing for you!
Fashionistas, Style Mavens, Upper East Side transplantsDo you know the difference between a Balenciaga and a Marc Jacobs? What about Stella McCartney verses Phoebe Philo?
If yes - read on.
I am a debut author with novel coming out next year from Atria ("Devil Wears Prada," "Bergdorf Blondes" appeal) and we're looking for A-list individuals who may be interested in receiving advance copies of the book, attending the In Style-sponsored launch event, and becoming a VIP on my publicist's list.
If you are interested, do not send a resume - drop me a line and tell me a bit about yourself and your qualifications and anyone else who you know who might be a VIP.
So, basically, if you read Gawker, have been lugging the 4lb. fall Vogue around and have a pair of Clergeries or Miu Mius set aside for special society occassions, then you could get a chance to hang out with someone who writes beach reads! For some tips on anunciation, we'd recommend the shoe blog. Because when we have to deal with Upper East Side transplants, we think, "What would the Manolo say?"
Photo proving that big is beautiful from Gawker.


Oh my god, why didn't they just say TOTAL DOUCHEBAGS WANTED?
and in a related note, oh my god, why can't I edit a comment when I think of a better way to put something? Douchebag trumps asshole in this context; asshole is reserved for Hummer drivers, which we don't know for sure these people are.
Got yer back, llm. Douchebags is always a nice touch.
Knew I did the right thing by sending this one your way...
I second the motion--Douchbags are an appropriate visual here. So...minimal. So...Helmut Lang.
DoucEbags! I meant DoucEbags! Bags of Douche!
in an utterly creepy turn of events, the posting's headline has been modified: "upper east side transplants" is out, and "JEWISH AMERICAN PRINCESSES!" is in. i'm too aghast to even formulate sarcasm.
