"After a completely exhausting/exhilirating 20 hours in Houston, we finished our last TV segment of the week and are currently enjoying some much-needed down time. So as I sit here, sipping iced tea and reading Marisha Pessl&amp;#x27;s new book &amp;amp;quot;Special Topics in Calamity Physics&amp;amp;quot; (which isn&amp;#x27;t fashion-related, but so good nonetheless!), allow me to spread the word about the happenings on next week&amp;#x27;s Slaves to Fashion. Starting on Tuesday, my homegirl Alex Marshall (a contributing editor to GLAMOUR who writes the Glamour My Way page and the genius &amp;amp;quot;It&amp;#x27;s OK...&amp;amp;quot; list every month) will be blogging about, yes, the fashion shows in Paris. Now, as Alex knows all too well, I hate her. Why? 1. She lives in Paris, my spiritual home. 2. She&amp;#x27;s a freelance writer who writes, yes, a ton of travel stories. Translation: she goes to places like the Dominican Republic for work. It is her JOB to stay in stellar hotels, eat unforgettable meals, and hobnob with the locals. 3. She is just one of the coolest people I know. Well beyond her knowledge of style (and the fashion industry), she&amp;#x27;s also an expert on music, culture, the arts....everything, really. Despite my unremitting jealously, I&amp;#x27;m extremely proud to have Alex&amp;#x27;s informed, hilarious, and downright honest voice informing Slaves to Fashion&amp;#x27;s coverage of the Paris shows. Her first entry will be here on Tuesday morning. I&amp;#x27;ll be in Atlanta tomorrow, Miami on Tuesday, and Chicago on Wednesday. Naturally, Jen and I will continue to be crazy, travellng adventuresses -- all in the name of &amp;amp;quot;Glamour&amp;#x27;s Big Book of Dos and Don&amp;#x27;ts,&amp;amp;quot; naturally. So check back, y&amp;#x27;all! See you soon."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
