Lindsay Price wears Valentino on the set of Lipstick Jungle

NY Social Diary: First Stop Valentino, Second Stop Cipriani

The end of HBO’s Sex and the City left prime time network television with some awfully big, um, shoes to fill. On NBC’s Lipstick Jungle, Lindsay Price plays fashion designer, Victory Ford. The show is based on the successful novel of the same name by Candace Bushnell (author of Sex and the City too), and the character of Victory is apparently based on the life of New York designer, Cynthia Rowley.

What to say about these Valentino-wearing power babes duking it out in the big city? Lipstick Jungle is to Sex and the City what The Artist Formerly Known as Prince was to the original Prince – a brand extension best forgotten. Why mess with what works? Whereas SATCS minted a genuine, innovative modern heroine – the sexually explicit but still romantic good girl – LJ is content to play dress-up with a gaggle of whiny “have-it-all-but-want-more” paper dolls.

To Perez, xXx From Paris: Happy Birthday Gossip Gangster!

Perez Hilton> You Know You’re Good When..

You can make snarky comments about people and they still show up at your party.

The Gossip Gangster turned the big 3-0 this last spring, and the likes of Amanda Bynes, Paris Hilton, Kelly Osbourne and Amy Winehouse turned up to fete the man who’s made a mint on their misadventures and/or misfortunes.

There’s a certain playful affection that’s unique to Perez, which enables him to remain unscathed. Celebs can’t seem to ween themselves off of watching their disasters unfold on his blog. Now that’s one impressive trampoline act on the part of the self-described The Queen of All Media. One could argue he’s one of the best social strategists since Otto von Bismarck. Or not.

How hilarious is this image of Perez’s three befuddled muses at his party:

Are they fighting over corporate sponsor table top swag? Oh dear.

And of course, the money shot was all about Paris on Perez. Yikes.

Though ShoeMinx is not a fan of The Hills, we are digging the shoes Heidi Montag wore to Perez’s birthday bash.
