Carla Bruni-Sarkozy Goes Antianimal, Hermes Goes Pro
Carla Bruni-Sarkozy has the pick of the litter when it comes to wearing sumptuous designer creations but her selection might be a little more limited now that she's vowed to be more animal friendly. "I do not wear, buy, or own fur or animal skin other than leather or skin of animals raised for feeding purposes. I am not a vegetarian and I don't find it illogical to wear skins of animals whose meat is also eaten."
Freaky or Fabulous? PETA Protests the Olsen Book Signing
Many of us are influenced by the Olsens, be it Mary-Kate or Ashley. But clearly PETA isn't. In fact, members of the organization stood in front of Barnes & Noble in New York City's Union Square yesterday to protest the girls' book, Influence.
On Our Radar: Vivienne and Stella Outfit the Queen's Guards

Freaky or Fabulous? Meaty Modeling
Modeling in a room of meat is odd, but wearing meat is freaky. On Wednesday's episode of America's Next Top Model, the remaining contestants were taken to the Meatpacking District in New York, where they had to not only wear raw meat, but they had to make it look as normal as modeling diamonds. Claire (pictured) and Marvita made the challenge look effortless, but I still think it's more freaky than fabulous.
Fab Flash: PETA Names Worst-Dressed Celebrities of 2008
PETA announced today that Aretha Franklin is "queen" of their annual worst-dressed list.

Here's what PETA had to say about Aretha and the runners-up — do you agree?
Fab Flash: Has PETA Gone Too Far With The "Trollsen Twins?"
PETA launched a new site today specifically targeting the Olsen twins, who they've re-named "Hairy-Kate and Trashly," the "Trollsen Twins," and re-drawn in an unattractive cartoon form. The site features games, videos, merchandise, and you can even take action by sending the Olsens a letter. This is an aggressive attack on PETA's part — do you think they've gone too far this time?

Fab Flash: PETA Condemns Python Skin Use
Snakeskin has been very in-demand for Fall — designers like Jimmy Choo, Calvin Klein, Prada, Fendi, YSL, and Roberto Cavalli have all made use of it on their bags and shoes.
Yesterday, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, or PETA, condemned the practice, saying, "A python has a hose shoved down its throat, is blown up with water then skinned alive. Then it's tossed onto a pile and is left, sometimes for days, before it dies.
