Glavy Porter: ALEXANDER MCQUEEN SCARVES
My cousin recently went to Pittsburgh, and previous to her going we had discussed how amazing Alexander McQueen scarves were (she was wearing one while we were out). Since the States is known to have a much better selection than here in Canada, I told my cousin to keep an eye out just incase she came across any cool ones. Luckily for me she was able to find this gorgeous scarf at Saks Fifth Avenue that is so unique compared to all the others and I completely fell in love! I have yet to wear it but definitely super happy with this purchase.

Glavy Porter: POLYVORE OUTFIT OF THE DAY
Personally I like to play it safe when it comes to my sense of style. I tend to stick with a lot of black and grey simplistic pieces, which is not a bad thing; its just more - ‘classic’. Im not always boring however! I do have pieces that have brighter tones and are a lot more funky than my average neutral shades.
One of my favourite things to do is wear a simple one toned outfit and have statement pieces that really stand out. I really like this outfit I put together on polyvore due to the fact its pretty simple; black Raquel Allegra tank, black Helmut Lang leather leggings, silver Fendi cuff. I added in the Christian Louboutin Marisa’s, red Celine leather tote as well as this Topshop red lace bra to add some spunk. Even though this outfit is simple, its not boring and I could see myself wearing something like this! I would die for those boots…

18 Tigers, 17 Lions, 8 Bears, 3 Cougars,
2 Wolves, 1 Baboon, 1 Macaque,
and 1 Man Dead in OhioYour longread of the day / week / month / year? GQ’s Chris Heath brings you the astonishing true story of the Zanesville zoo massacre—which began when a depressed, desperate man named Terry Thompson turned loose his 56 exotic animals in rural Ohio, touching off a mass slaughter that was covered around the world. Below, just a very brief portion of the story from its opening section. The full piece is here. Read it. We solemnly swear you will not be disappointed.
Inside the barn Sam Kopchak locked the doors, then telephoned his mother, sitting in front of the TV about a hundred yards away back in the house. There was, he told her, “a major problem.” They’d long known that there were strange and unusual animals kept out of sight over the brow of the hill around Thompson’s house—often they could hear lions bellow and roar. “We didn’t have any idea how many there were,” Mrs. Kopchak would later reflect. But they assumed that these two runaways must have come from there, so the first thing Mrs. Kopchak did was to dial her neighbor’s number.
No answer.
Only then did she call 911 and alert the world. She sounded calm when she reported what her son had seen, as though there was really nothing too strange or alarming about a lion and a bear running loose on an October afternoon in Ohio. But maybe she was a little rattled. When the 911 operator asked for her first name, Mrs. Kopchak answered “Dolores,” the name on her birth certificate but one she never uses: “I’ve been called Dolly for eighty-four years.”
Her son remained trapped in the barn. From there, looking through a north-facing window, he watched the menagerie grow. Along came a wolf. And a second bear, this one much larger than the first. And there was the lion he had seen before, now pacing back and forth. And also a lioness, anxiously scuttering around. “And then,” he says, “I saw a tiger. I’m telling you, the lion is bad enough, and the lioness is bad enough, and the wolf is bad, and the bear, but…don’t be around the tiger. The tigers are actually bigger than the lions if they’re fully grown. He started snarling, and went after the horses.”
