Wednesday's Women: Tomboys, Fillies and Crazies

Blessed Virgin: Just to clean your palette, here’s Adriana Lima - maidenhead possibly not included. [Gawker]

“Pull your skirt down, Secretariat, we’d rather ride Chris Noth.” Maxim shouts what we’ve been too polite to say. [NY Daily News]

This is How We Do It: Menswear may change, but men don’t - or at least not so much. [London Times]

That’s “Sir Jasper” To You: Brit designer Jasper Conran gets his O.B.E. from H.R.H. [Times of London]

For The Boys: The Observer details this new “urbane tomboys” trend. Funny, we’ve been dating them since the mid-90s. [Observer]

Crazy Eyes: Meanwhile, Details accounts for the rest of the notches on our bedpost. We still have nightmares. [Details]

Cleveland Rocks: Wrath Arcane represents Mistake by the Lake. [Plain Dealer]

Code Pink, Knockout Punches and Towering Tommy

Foxy Boxing: Adriana Lima, Doutzen Kroes and, sigh, Karolina Kurkova have been practicing the sweet science at a local gym. We kind of like the fact that they could beat the snot out of us. [Observer]

“Women Love You in Pink Shirts”: We have personal, experiential evidence that this is true. [Just a Guy Thing]

Barney and Friends: The appearences of Michel Gondry, Timo and Panama-hat wearing ping-pong champs at Matthew Barney’s National Arts Club dinner add up to the first party report that actually made us jealous. [VF Daily]

One Step at a Time: Just like everything else there, shoemaking in Iraq is a study in tragedy and persistence. [IHT]

Neighborhood Watch: How could we have missed this one? Not only has our beloved Style Guy returned from the front with a new report on CBGB’s, but he also waxes nostalgic (in his own unsentimental way) about causing a minor riot with his “socialist-realist rock band.” Awesome. [GQ]

Acne Treatment: What? You still haven’t hit Acne? [Paper]

Pink Hearts and Purple Horseshoes: Italian Elle gets a hold of Adriana Lima’s Lucky Charms. [Egotastic]

Winged Migration: Swoop in on Birds of Prey. [Refinery29]

Clapped in Cuffs: Will you roll up when the mercury rises? [Style Savage]

Dropping Names: The horridly named Juicy Couture Men’s has rebranded themselves as “Dirty English,” a marginal improvement at best. [DNRNews]

Mayor McCheese: Did you know that Michael Bloomberg is a style icon? No? Him either. [Newsday]

Award Season: The CFDAs are tonight. Is your fave nominated? [Men.Style]

Working Girls: Also from Men.Style, a collection of the finest women in fashion. We can think of a few they missed, but enjoy nonetheless. [Men.Style]
