ActuallyI'm a pretty quick study when it comes to these things - irony, satire, all that kind of stuff. I guess my anally-obsessive compulsion to get the models' names right got in the way. I shall do my best to control this urge in the future - although I can not guarantee it (LOL).

Hey guys things are getting a bit nasty here. Besides we're just talking about models. They're paid to make the clothes look good, not paid to be smart or clever or personable, except maybe at VS, where that has become part of the VS marketing ploy. It's not like models, VS or HC, worked hard for years to get where they are. They didn't put in the kind of grueling, dedicated practice and hard work - day in day out, many hours every single day - like say a ballerina or classical musician. They're just pretty girls (and with HC often not particularly pretty girls) who just happened to be in the right place at the right time and got "discovered" by some modeling agent in search of the "look" of the moment.

Oh I see now. Y'all were purposefully conflating Lindsay with Erin, and maybe even Shannan, and every other air-headed blonde as a kind of joke. Poor, naive un-hip me to have missed the point. Well I guess that's the problem with irony, especially here on a fashion blog, where proper identification of the models is of such HUGE importance and a source of such endless contention. When there's nothing left but irony there's no where else to go. You've reached endgame, or, perhaps meta-joke?. You know you love me - xoxo

Lindsay Ellingson: It's maybe hard to tell 'em apart? Guess all cute American blondes look alike.

Love this thread. But, not to rain on anyone's parade, and just for the record, this ^^^^ is Erin Heatherton not Lindsay Ellingson.
