Diamonds in the Ruff, Part V
Plenty of websites have made fun of the kids who go out in New York, drawing images from the galleries upon galleries of weekly updated party photos to be found on the net. But, while we have nothing against the mockery of Blue States Lose, we figure there should be a place to shout out the good stuff too: the great outfits, the gorgeous people, pure eye candy.
DIAMONDS IN THE RUFF. [Archives]
By Brad and Kathy. This time it’s culled from photos in the “Let’s Go Upstairs”, “Yes It’s Me Again”, and “Tragic Kingdom” photo sets.
Brad says “Cameron and Romina are the modern day American Gothic and they’re neither a complete couple nor completely American.” Kathy says “they’re king and queen of the prom that is constantly going on in the part of my brain that also can’t stop humming ‘Please, Please, Please Let Me Get What I Want.’”

Brad says “she may be doing the pose I hate most but 1) I think I told her to do it, and 2) she looks great doing it, so 3) I will shut up and love her.” Kathy says “yeah, she totally did it as a joke! She was like ‘ooh, look, I’m so Misshapes!’ and you were all ‘Wait, this is actually GOOD.’”
Brad says “hello, Not Andy Samberg. You can make whatever short films you want to with me.” Kathy says “I was trying to think of some kind of recurring SNL character that Andy Samberg does that I could do some terrible pun about, but Andy’s kind of useless. Maybe this guy is too, I have no idea, what I’m saying here is that messy hair = heartache.”
Brad says “sometimes you just want to hang out with a guy in a shirt and normal-sized necktie who doesn’t roll up his sleeves and doesn’t dye his hair black.” Kathy says “hello, I can do your taxes and read your x-rays and negotiate your divorce and lecture you about Proust and also make you want to make babies.”
Brad says “maybe Adrian is clawing his way out of his clothing and maybe it’s really hot.” Kathy says “Adrian has such a good face–I mean like, so good I might have to ruin it. Like Lenny and the rabbits.”
Brad says “I don’t know how she managed to make an entire grandma outfit look chic but way to go, dearie.” Kathy says “her bangs are doing that completely unattainable flat/straight/shiny/smooth thing that is forcing me to grow mine out. I don’t care if she’s wearing a garbage bag, she gets two thumbs up from me for those three inches of hair alone.”
Brad says “you know how much I love a good over-the-shoulder.” Kathy says “I actually hear “1..2…3…DIVA” in my head when I look at this.”
Brad says “I’ve stumbled upon these ladies in the middle of the forest and they plan to breathe glitter on me and take me to a hammock up in a tree where I will be treated to exotic foods and the harmony of syncopated lutes.” Kathy says “unless they hand you a tumbler full of bathtub gin and then do the Charleston for a while. Either/or.”
Brad says “Kate and Alana are the epitome. That’s all.” Kathy says “Rumer and Holly? Oh yeah, they were totally at Ruff Club. It was AWESOME, it was just like ‘Party Monster!’ Let me go e-mail Gawker right now.”
Brad says “Antwan managed to find a girl who looks as good in an understated outfit as he does. They both look effortless.” Kathy says “See, THAT is what I’m always going for! But somehow I either end up Going to Church or Rolled Outta Bed Like This. Good job, guys.”
Brad says “sharp, man. Sharp.” Kathy says “oh my god, Bret Easton Ellis was TOTALLY at Ruff Club. It was just like ‘Bright Lights, Big City!’ Lemme go e-mail Gawker right now!”
Brad says “this guy’s only here because he looks like Benjamin Linus and I love ‘Lost.’” Kathy says “yeah, but Ben if he were younger and cuter and not going to kill all of us with his awesomely evil puppet master shtick. Why is this doing something for me?”
Brad says “Geneva is inhumanly hot.”
Brad says “um, this is a look I am always in favor of.”
Brad says “welcome to the Hot Convention in the Hotel Chelsea. Please check in with our registrar, who is undoubtedly far less attractive than we are.” Kathy says of the last three photos: “The Chelsea Hotel makes everyone appear at least 50% cooler, except if you are Geneva or Kay, in which case you look 750% cooler than everyone else, no matter what. Also, I would pay $20.00 to make out with that shirtless guy. I don’t know that this has anything to do with the hotel, but I only have $28.00 in my bank account, so that’s saying a lot.”

Kathy: I think I can make that make out session with the shirtless guy happen for free for you. Save those 28 green backs for a rainy day!
p.s. Sarah, you’re hilarious
Oh, and Brad, I’ve said it before and I’ll say it a million more, you work miracles with very little equipment and no training. So much so, that you could make a one eyed mangey Cocker Spaniel look appealing. I loathe Cocker Spaniels, so that’s says a lot about you/your talent.

When I’m in NY, I have 3 main things to do/accomplish:
1- Go see the last performance of “RENT” (sorry, it’s a must!)
2- Go to at least 1 “Fashion Week” Show (duh…)
3- Have a Brad Walsh pic taken of me…..
If all 3 things happen, I’ll be the happiest lil manatee around!
me! =)

Diamons in Ruff is the correct title… Some yes but others I don’t see.
