Students all over campus frequent their favorite blogs everyday; for some it’s Perez Hilton, for others it’s Gawker, and for those of you reading this, maybe it’s The Spin. My most-frequented blog is Gofugyourself.com, in which the two “meanest queens in the cafeteria” cleverly lambaste the fashions of young-Hollywood. While I’m no fashionista myself, the hilarious writings of Heather and Jessica give me a great reason to procrastinate when I’m supposed to be studying for Biology.

Most of the time, the site bashes fashion train wrecks such as Hilary Duff and Courtney Love, but I was completely thrown off-guard when I came across 34th Street’s most recent Ego of the Week, Penn senior and fashion designer Jesse Della Femina.

While I find it a stretch to claim JDF’s fuchsia dress as a fashion offense, blogger Heather chastises Femina for “treating her chest like [a curtain rod].” “One enthusiastic shrug,” she says, “one wild gesture, and the groceries will come tumbling out of the bag.” Though I’m not one to poke fun at the stylings of my fellow Penn students, I have to admit the post did make me giggle.

Gofugyourself.com is my escape from Penn life, but once in a while coming across a Penn face is inevitable. Femina is not the only Penn student, both past and present, to grace the infamous fashion police website–former Homecoming Queen and Murphy Brown star, Candice Bergen, has been known to make a few guest appearances as well. At a school that is home to some of the world’s most competent youth, many destined for stardom, only time will tell which one of us will be Heather and Jessica’s next victim.
