This is the blog for CTCS 677, a course at USC that will situate debates in cultural studies about the formation of identity and the relationship of production to consumption within an analysis of the fashion and beauty industries, especially as these industries have been represented within popular media culture.

Less troubling since they lost
Since Sarah Palin has now pretty much admitted her yearning for national stardom and failed to rule out (with a wink and a nudge) a 2012 run, I thought it might be useful to do a miniature retrospective on her infamous Saks shopping spree. See Newsweek attempt to identify (using a strange "expert" salespersons interview method) her various outfits. Apparently, the salt of the earth is something of a "St.John's girl" and that ain't so bad (title linked to slideshow). Her signature color is red (of course it is! must be the fiery feminist in her) and she shares shoe preferences with Paris Hilton... enough said. Enjoy.
