I'm seeing more and more MCM furniture, commercials, and now the Brad Pitt and Jolie in W Magazine shot by Steven Klein. Do you think MCM is the new traditional for Generation X and Y? Or do you think it's just a trend?

so do you think it's just a trend or do you think it'll last?

good design always lasts. Even if people jump off the bandwagon other people know the quality and influence of these designers.

I agree. Although, I'm a bit worried that MCM is getting so popular that before we know it... we're gonna see Jessica Simpson in a MCM house. I totally fear that, especially because i'm buying one.

what? none of it's a trend. it was there then and it's here now. it depends on your taste.

cool, thanks. i think i'm just looking for some pathetic validation about my purchase. :)

I doubt that simpson has that good of taste, maybe her stylist or interior designer

So because Jessica Simpson has a MCM house you can't be seen in one?
Like, OMG.
