7x7's Jen Siebel vs Vanessa Getty Photo Showdown

We live for moments like this. Thank you, God.
See, in yet another 7x7 Magazine article about how skinny rich women are saving/running/benefiting San Francisco in vague yet miraculous ways, the glossy pub's most recent article, "The California Academy of Sciences' Leading Ladies," features San Francisco's First Lady, Jennifer Siebel-Newsom, and the woman whom we're one missed Prozac pill away from stalking, the sublime Vanessa Getty.
Oh, and they both appear in the same photo layout together.
Awesome.
Anyway, the article prattles on about the new the new California Academy of Sciences, which is scheduled to open later this month. Siebel and Getty are on the board at CAS and contributed "generous family donations," respectively, hence their having to appear in the same Vanity Fair-knockoff image. While Siebel looks, well, like a bridesmaid in her Ajna certified-organic-cotton long bias-cut dress with hemp-silk trim ($950), la Getty once again turns the shit out by sporting a Vintage Alaia cocktail dress and Christian Louboutin patent-leather heels (all her own!) Brava, Nessie. Brava.
O to be a Frank Gehry 18K yellow-gold fish cuff at that photo shoot! (Read more about the ladies who lunch at the California Academy of Sciences here.)


I just lost my breakfast AND lunch!
I can't believe I'm mad that it should really be 'whom' re: the stalking.
So why again should we buy memberships if these socialite types are already paying for it all?!
Is Vanessa Getty knocked up or is that just a hugely unflattering dress?
Nah, the bipolar drugs make her fat.
bluecanary, I was wondering the exact same thing! Her mid-section looks extremely bumpy!
blasphemers!
I love Jen's profound quote from the Saturday, August 30th Chron:
"As a woman who is a champion of women's equality, I find (the Palin pick) very interesting and a maverick move," said Jennifer Siebel Newsom, who along with her husband, San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom, backed Hillary Rodham Clinton. "I'm very curious. I drank the Obama Kool-Aid. I'm into Michelle Obama, but I'm excited to see another woman get attention as a vice presidential candidate."
Seibel should just stick to smiling and waving, which is what Gavin's paying her for. Just when you think she's succeeded in her never ending quest to be deemed most ignorant female in San Francisco, she opens her mouth and tops herself again.
I love reading all the catty comments when you post about hotties Brock.
err, considering she announced she was knocked up in March, the odds are good it's not just bloating.

Yes, there soon will be more Gettyettes running around in fabulous fashions.
blue canary.... sebum should just stick to waving.. That smile is nauseating!
Getty on being preggers:
"It's my Angelina Jolie moment."
what a perfectly bitchin' and sensible perspective on being with-child. god, i love her so much right now. i'm totally sending her a baby gift.
A cattle prod?
