Win Nars & MAC
Blog. To me, the word most resembles the sound someone makes to indicate that she desperately needs the Heimlich maneuver. It also reminds me of elderly European men on street corners, who emit guttural explosions ("Blech!" "Blugh!" "Blog!") to pass the long afternoons. Still, I rather like it since it well represents the way we spit out info. Apparently, the word affronts Anna Wintour enough that she has appealed to her Vogue staff to come up with a chicer mot—as was reported by Page Six. Perhaps the winner at Vogue will receive a free pass to eat a Kit-Kat without being fired. Want to weigh in? Visit TheStylephile.com and post your best idea for a substitute word for blog in the comments section beneath this post. The winner will receive a gift bag filled with make-up (MAC, Nars) and other great goodies hand-picked from my beauty closet. — Monica Corcoran
