This is the day I've waited for!! BCBG has finally re-opened the doors of their online shop. It's about time.. those biznatches. I hate BCBG the business. And really.. who doesn't?

Korean actors and actresses sure know how to get dolled up... but these brothers and sisters need to learn how to work that Red Carpet. I'm going to have to send word back to Korea to work on that Red Carpet pose and wave. In any case, how excited was I when I found these…
