LA nightlife photographer the Cobrasnake just starting selling vintage on his website. The goods being offered are neon fanny packs, see-through jumpsuits, off-the-shoulder leopard-print unitards, and so forth. He also seems to be specializing in t-shirts that people wore at overnight camp in 1992, like the above.

Mark Hunter (yep, still working!) shot the editorial, which is the cover story for No #4.

GALLERY: Peaches Geldof for No #4.

Cobrasnake and Ksubi are teaming up once again, this time for an exhibition of Mark Hunter’s “social photography” in Ksubi’s Australian stores.

The exhibit includes 200 signed photos lovingly curated from Mark’s hard drive, all of “young girls” once featured on Cobrasnake, shot in London, Paris, New York, Tokyo, LA and Sydney.

If you want to catch the exhibit, titled “Too Young,” stop by the Bondi Beach Ksubi store in Sydney at 6pm, or at the Armadale store in Melbourne on the 28th.

Mark himself will be on hand, signing limited-edition tees and prints available for purchase.

Isn't Zooey an It Woman by now?

So Nylon recently came out with a list of things to do if you want to be an “It Girl” for their October issue dedicated to the subject. Among the options, dating a rocker, being under 20 years old, and being the spawn of a celebrity made the list according to Jezebel. We’ve got our own thoughts on what it takes to be an “It Girl” but we must warn all that accomplishing all these might just get you an STD and a trip to rehab.

1. Crave a Shit Load of Attention. It’s the attention your parents never gave you cause they were too busy sniffing coke off of Fareah Fawcett’s ass during your quarterly P.T.A meetings. It’s the attention you crave when you hit the strip without a pair of coochy covers on. It’s the attention that makes you look sad enough to give up a “make me feel good” fuck to the first guy who looks your way. Believe me, guys are looking.

2. Suck Cock. Actually Suck a Shit Load of Cock. Like “Porn Star Trying To Break A Guinness World Record” Level Cock Sucking. Former geeky high school boys will pay attention to you if you do. The same boys who have no social life and a shit load of time to snap photos of people (rather than actually party with them) at clubs. The same boys who know HTML and aren’t afraid to blog it. The same boys who will upload your photos making you an “It Girl”. Doing so will guarantee Cory Kennedy fame within two face blasts. Be sure to avert your eyes.

Harley Viera Newton can It Girl. Can You?

3. Drink. A Lot. Drunk chicks dance, are loud as fuck, and get noticed at clubs. You should reek of alcohol every morning and wake up with random sploodge in your hair from all the photographers you blew the night before. (See tip number 2)

4. While You’re Drinking Snort Some Coke. Or Ecstasy. Or Heroin. Or Pixie Sticks. Seriously, drugs make you really, really, really cool. If you’ve been to rehab and you aren’t even old enough to vote you’re on the right track.

5. Look Like Jailbait. Or Better Yet, Be Jailbait. Underage girls get paparazzi and hipster photographers hotter than a 70% off sale at Urban Outfitters. Wax off all signs of pubescent hair and be sure to be slutty enough to get their attention but not slutty enough to seem like you know what your doing. A woman who’s actually capable of seducing someone freaks hipster photographers out and they’ll just blow their load before they snap your photo.

6. Stalk Dov Charney, Merlin Bronques, Cobrasnake or any other hipster with a camera then repeat steps 1 -5.

7. Shop, Work, and/or Pick Up Your Drug Supply from American Apparel. Seriously.

8. You + A Celebrity’s Dong + Video Camera with Night Vision = Instant “It Girl” Status.

Nudity Helps. ALLOT!!!

9. Don’t Weigh More Than The Thinner Olsen. Better yet, acquire an eating disorder like bulemia, anorexia, or that weird one from Sex and the City where the guy chews food but doesn’t actually swallow it. It Girls must be a size two or zero in order to get noticed and slip in and out of prison bars when their arrested for drunk driving/drug possession/smuggling Canadians across the US border.

10. Be White. Seriously.

11. Attempt To Be Something More Than An Over-Glorified Attention Whore. Consider modeling, becoming a DJ, or creating a t-shirt line. All require absolutely no skill whatsoever and will guarantee you get even more attention.

12. Skip The Higher Education Route. It Girls don’t need to be smart. They just need to be dumb enough to follow all these rules to a tee. Skip the community college application (did you really think NYU is an option when the web is littered with your half-coked out party images?) and just enroll in the school of hard cocks knocks.

Peaches Geldof Can It Girl With a Full Stomach. Can You?

13. Realize That There Is Only ONE Media Outlet That Gives A Fuck About You. Seriously, if it wasn’t for them, you wouldn’t exist so be sure to bend over backwards to appear on their Internet TV shows, support their yard sales, and pick up their dry cleaning while your at it.

Portia Freeman can do the It Girl. Can You?

14. Date Pete Doherty. Works everytime.

15. If All Else Fails There’s Always Lesbianism. It worked for Lindsay and it can work for you.

P.S. Before you all start claiming that I’m a woman hating, misogynistic, asshole let me state first and foremost that I am. If women want to accept a title that praises them for doing nothing more than dressing cute and getting photographed than they deserve to be shit on. If you truly believe in women’s empowerment then don’t support publications that insist on placing coked out, drunk whores on their covers, calling them “It Girls” or deeming their turds worthy of your attention. Let’s get real ladies.

On a side, if any of you want to be deemed “It Girls” by Fashion Indie, send us your photos and a small sentence on what the fuck you’ve done lately that makes you interesting. Dressing well helps (we are a fashion blog) but isn’t necessary. We’re looking for accomplishments like “Didn’t Drop Out of College”, “Just Hosted a Massively Cool Event”, or “Just Found a Cure for Male Pattern Pubic Baldness”. Send them to saynt@fashionindie.com and we’ll feauture you on the site.

The Cobrasnake snuck away to Paris to check out Karl Lagerfeld’s show.

You can see all the photos on his site but here are a few of our favorites. 

Goddamnit!!! I was afraid this might happen. I haven’t been on The Cobra Snake for sometime but today I jumped on to check out some photos from recent events I’m not cool enough to get invited to. Anywho, aside from being shocked by the unforgiving amounts of Henry Holland candids, I spotted the photo above in one of the galleries. Why hipster scum, why?!? There is no need to support Crocs. They are ugly little monsters that make you look like a complete fly-over state reject. Please, do not copy this trend. No one needs to support Crocs rise. 

Wait. Just realized something. Crocs are to the Millennium, as Sketchers are to the 90’s.  Damn, that’s a scary thought. On a side note, isn’t it time Sketchers got cool again, eh?

Urban Outfitters has contracted indie-designer Geren Ford to design a range of  lower priced pieces to be featured online and in selected stores.

Apparently this is the first in many collaborations with indie-designers. Starting this month UO will be going the Target route and having designers create lower-priced lines of their own collections.

Geren Ford’s Hawks collection is filled with vintage inspired pieces-are there any other kind these days? It has the perfect 1994 sundress and 1975 high-waisted short for those long summer days.

Wow Urban! First Cobrasnake, now indie designers….What’s next? Are you going to ask us to blog for you?

Gotta love NYLON for trying, but isn’t the whole Death Proof/Planet Terror shit done.

Through some odd twist of fate Cory Kennedy and I spent a ton of time together during fashion week (also see. “Hey look it’s Cory Kennedy, again. Should I say hi, again?”). Because of this I feel the need to tout her greatness (a.k.a chick got money and page views and I can use some dotcom love. Link to FashionIndie.com Cory). So, be sure to check out this really cool shirt she’s hawking for KSUBI. It’s limited to only 250 pieces, it only comes in size medium mens and it’s for sale on TheCobraSnake.com.
