Is that supposed to be a heart? Please kill us.

Take a look at the cover of the J.Crew catalog on the left. It's two pretty models zipped into hoodie sweatshirts together. How sweet! Look closer. Recognize the ginger on the left? It's Jessica Joffe, the former Observer assistant turned model who has previously appeared in campaigns for Banana Republic and Uniqlo. You may remember her from the New York Times, where she described herself and her boyfriend Ryan Adams as "Like, a low-rent, mall version of Sid and Nancy." She looks kind of smug in that picture, huh? Well, if you were a twentysomething Stanford grad who models for a living and lives with a rock-star boyfriend, you might be smug, too. We'd say something bitter and catty, but we're afraid Ryan Adams would come after us with his words.
