Gustavo wanted to put me in this dress for the dinner - but Eva Longoria called yesterday, and she’s taking it (to Cannes) instead!
Shame on you, Gustavo! Don't you know that Jackles follows celebrities on Twitter??
Welcome to the terrible majesty of the bray and the cray!

Julia: Get Over Yourself
Jackles is so so so so so busy, waiting for her life to "calm down" so she can once again provide content on her "lifecast." How brave of her then to manage to eke out some time during her hectic, face-paced day of Twitter-stalking and harassing to post photo after photo of gowns that she wants to wear to the White House Correspondents' Dinner. Thankfully Rambo and fashion designer Gustavo Cadile have come to her rescue, and once again she's going to snag a gown she has no business wearing to an event she has no business attending.
Shame on you, Gustavo! Don't you know that Jackles follows celebrities on Twitter??

I'm pretty sure Eva Longoria will be taking the same dress, different size, to Cannes.
ReplyDeleteSo it's still free for JA.
OMFG. "the designer wanted ME to wear it, not that bitch Eva, but she's such a selfish cunt that she had to be princess Hollywood and take it away from me. Just know - the designer WANTED ME in his dress. ME. Not her."
ReplyDeletePP: Exactly. She is truly delusional.
ReplyDeleteMy evil me would love it, if this was an elaborate way of torturing her. Imagine if there was a series of posts like this:
ReplyDeleteThis one was perfect! But someone important called dibs first.
Oh this one!!! Oh.., Blake Lively, huh...
Loooved this, but ... Heidi will wear it.
etc. until she throws a tantrum and goes home.
She is FUMING that Monique Lhuillier did not take her up on her blatant hints. I just had a look at her photo posts , and her indifference towards this other designer dude is so obvious. I'm wondering what she did to piss Betsey Johnson off? That used to be her first port of call not that long ago.
ReplyDeleteBJ wear - not appropraite for the Hill.
ReplyDeleteSomebody contact Gustavo Cadile and clue him into this mentalcase. Does he really want this nutjob wearing his creations?
ReplyDeleteMatilda, Mary is J's only fashion hook-up these days and she wouldn't be caught dead pulling Betsey Johnson for the WHCD, even for Princess Bubble Yum (or Bubble Butt).
ReplyDeleteNo matter how beautiful the dresses are on those pin thin models, Julia will look like a rumpled frump. Her stubby body, inch of pancake makeup and bouffant curls will ruin whatever dress they choose for her.
ReplyDeleteBecause Eva Longoria and Jackles are the same size.
ReplyDeleteLOLZ!!!!
I hope Mary Rambin sabotages Julia Allison and puts her in an unflattering dress, just like she put her in those fug ensembles yesterday for TMI Weekly.
ReplyDeletesnowflake on tmi
ReplyDeleteJA has a full schedule this week bunnies, 1st pick up borrowed gown, 2nd think of ways to pull a Gawker-worthy stunt at WHCD...must obtain newsworthy, notable, impressario fame-by-association photo-op!
ReplyDeleteHave a great day! XO
The only person at Gawker who ever wrote about Julia Allison - Owen Thomas - is leaving. No doubt she had a mini meltdown that her only source of marginally mainstream attention has totally dried up. She is a total nonentity now --- complete nobody.
ReplyDeletelol on tmi they call her Meghan's "super-Caucasian mom"
ReplyDeleteFun with unflattering screengrabs!
ReplyDeletehttp://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=28qzaf&s=5
Rambo's pretty kind and generous to JA considering how many times her frenemy has publicly and privately dissed her.
ReplyDeleteHow fascinating your life is, Julia. Thank you for sharing with us. Who, me? Oh, no, I won't be attending. You mean, if I were? Probably buy something BCBG off the rack & rack up more credit card debt. You're right - I can't really afford it. But - really - I'm thrilled for you, that you're able to get a gown worth several thousand dollars for free. Oh - right, sorry forgot that part: a gown that Eva wanted. I meant to say that.
ReplyDeleteWhat in her un-right mind makes her think that anyone other than the 2% of the population who live like this would be interested?
Wow, so Eva Longoria stole JA's dress? As if that would even look halfway appropriate on her! Just another indication that this girl has no clue what her body looks like NOW as opposed to a year ago. Her boobies would not look good jammed together under all that fabric and it would over emphasize the lack of muscle tone in her arms. However, I'm sure Eva will rock that dress like no other. ;-)
ReplyDeleteanon @2:58: Nice! She looks more like Randi every day.
ReplyDeleteI predict whatever gown Julia Allison mooches will end up looking like this, only worse:
ReplyDeletehttp://julia.nonsociety.com/post/98976935-0-0
"Unfortunately, some formal wear doesn’t photograph well … like this DVF gown I wore to the Glamour Women of the Year awards. Eek."
But it's not HER, that's the problem. It's that the DRESS doesn't photograph well. That's it! Riiiight.
Mary Rambin still gets dresses from Ilus Dress Rental... so why not Julia? Burned bridges there, too? Or too big for most sizes they carry?
More screengrab goodness in case you get tired of that Zappos photo Jacy --
ReplyDeletehttp://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=4vshao&s=5
I personally just can't fathom that she doesn't have SOMETHING she can wear. This isn't the fucking oscars. It's Capitol Hill Surreal Life, with dinner. Just put on a dress, Julia! No one cares!
ReplyDeletethis is really too easy
ReplyDeletehttp://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=1180x36&s=5
PP, Julia Allison would scrounge for a freebie gown for the opening of an Applebees. Any chance to dress up, take pictures of herself and make herself feel important (while everyone else laughs behind her back) and she's all over it. Like Jacy said: truly delusional.
ReplyDeleteHey, good news- this site comes up on the first page of google rankings when you plug in nonsociety.
ReplyDeleteYIEAH!! :)
Now we just need to figure out a way to get it in the first page of when you google Julia Allison.
pt, I guess. I just don't understand her need to validate her superiority by proving she can get loaners from Bergdorf's. That's cool and all, but I'd rather wear something appropriate and flattering than rip out my extensions over what status the label confers.
ReplyDeleteReminds me of those brides who wear 4 inch stilletos for the wedding. Wouldn't you rather be comfortable and enjoy the evening?
"The only person at Gawker who ever wrote about Julia Allison - Owen Thomas - is leaving."
ReplyDeleteNot true. I mean yes he is leaving but Gawker wrote about Julia long before Owen did. I think Owen covered her most recently only because she fell within his Web/tech beat due to Nonsociety. But he was actually the only one to write consistently scathing posts on her. The rest of the writers seemed to promote her more than snark on her in any real way.
Gawker will probably continue its long tradition of writing about her. But with Owen gone who knows if the coverage will resemble Owen's cutting JA posts that clearly got under her skin (remember "cunt" anyone?) or the posts of the past that gave her press but not much flack. Hopefully coverage of her will just die out but with Gawker I'd really have to see that to believe it.
So Julia snatched up Nonsociety on Twitter to make sure we were bumped down a link on the google page. It's all making sense.
ReplyDeleteCan we all agree that she peaked with her Wired cover? I've seen a huge dropoff in mentions of her in any source since then.
ReplyDeleteFrom last thread:
ReplyDeleteNot sure of I was ever a "fan" of Julia, but I definitely read the J & J blog without total animosity. She just seemed like the dumb cheerleader who stumbled onto the beatnik crowd (the Jakobs and Emily G.'s).
Since we're talking about it ... I think her popularity was the result of the culture around Gawker and, to a different but important extent, Socialite Rank. I think anyone who studies the case of Julia needs to understand who Tinsley Mortimer is and especially what Socialite Rank meant in 2006.
She covered media parties for NYMag and HuffPost -- both high-profile gigs for a young college graduate. Back then, her tumblr was interesting because she was attending interesting parties. Hence, "NonSociety." She thought her star was rising and back then it really was. She broke Michael's heart to take her chances on Dave Z. from Men's Health, and she got her Star job and column at TONY that spring. Jakob was the first guy she took seriously after things didn't work out for her romantically. Suddenly she was into tech.
I made the first Owen comment - I meant to say that he was the only person that *currently* writes about Julia Allison and now he is leaving. Hopefully Gawker won't cover her anymore because really... what is there to cover? She's incredibly boring and her blog posts are barely two sentences long. Total nobody. Agreed partypants - Julia Allison peaked with the Wired cover and has gone downhill FAST ever since. Claiming she had a shelf life of seven years was incredibly generous; it's been more like seven months.
ReplyDeletere: socialite rank
ReplyDeleteWe even have our own Engrussian contributor!
Funny how now no one remembers that Olivia from The City was humiliated on the site.
@ 3:09
ReplyDeleteIllus has a very limited collection of dresses and very few ball gowns. One doesn't have to wear a ball gown to WHCD but seems like Jules wants to be overdressed as usual.
Julia Allison snatched up Nonsociety on twitter because she was too stupid to claim her business name when it first launched and then she bullied twitter into handing it over after RBNS got it. Just liked she bullied her way into getting @julia.
ReplyDeleteWith nonsociety a total failure, you can tell she is trying to distance herself from it and the name. Her twitter has xojulia.com redirecting to nonsociety , among other things. It would be almost comical how Julia Allison Baugher tries to outrun/edit/revise her history on the internet if it was not so pathetic.
And, yeah, there is no way that Eva Longoria (a size 0) is take the SAME dress JA would have worn. Longoria, like all stars, just doesn't borrow dres designs that have already been warn to public events. So, Longoria has dibs on the public reveal of the dress.
ReplyDeleteuh, Jing? I know you pride yourself on being so insidery, but check the guy's website. It was already on the cover of a magazine, and a no name one at that (page one on his press page).
ReplyDeleteIt is so bizarre how you continue to do this.
I have it on good authority that "insidery" is so 2007.
ReplyDeleteSo maybe claiming Eva Longoria would wear the dress was another case of stretching and massaging the truth?
ReplyDeleteCover of a magazine does not equal worn to a prestigious event anyway, does it?
anon 4:02 Ja I presume?
ReplyDeletePP so is cupccake issues
ReplyDeletehey wait a minute..
Miss Cupcake Issues :)
Oh, go away and punch pillows or do archery or whatever works for you, but stop being a snarky pooper. It's old.
ReplyDeleteGAWD, Julia Allison! Could you at least get a little more creative with your outrageous lies?! If you look on the "celebrities" section in the designer's press, Eva Longoria is the second celebrity listed. And she doesn't have any movies coming out so why would she go to Cannes? LAZY LAZY LAZY.
ReplyDeleteWho cares about Eva's dress? Yes with the Socialite Rank nostalgia! Was Julia ever even in their honorable mentions??
ReplyDeleteJulia Allison was never on Socialite Rank or even City File. She has, like, one picture on New York Social Diary. Outside of a couple hundred people in the NY media scene knowing who she is (and generally loathing her), she is a complete and utter nobody. Her website name "Nonsociety" was supposed to be a wink to that and it would be a wink, except for she's such a desperate bottom feeder trying to scratch and claw her way into relevancy that it makes her look all the more pathetic.
ReplyDeleteIf Julia Allison were as wealthy as she's tried to make the world believe, she'd have not even thought to borrow a dress. Once again, cheap.
ReplyDeleteLiza Anderson, of The Anderson Group, is Eva's publicist. Love to know if she has a comment on this mention of her client.
ReplyDeletehttp://andersongrouppr.com/
Are you kidding 4:38? Some very wealthy people borrow gowns and clothing for events. It's an extremely common practice. Think of all the awards shows and such, so many wealthy celebs borrow clothes for them.
ReplyDeleteTrue, anon 4:45, but it's always the other way around - designers ask celebrities to wear their gowns. Celebrities don't go scrounging around for freebies two days before the event.
ReplyDeleteTrue, true 4:48
ReplyDeleteJulia Baugher is not a "wealthy celeb." She's a desperate, aspirational wannabe from the burbs who slips up and shows her tacky, nouveau riche roots at every turn:
ReplyDelete- "freshwater pearls"
- begging for borrowed gowns
- bragging about rich friends who leave $1,000 tips
- mentioning her parent's condo at every opportunity
- disclosing how much her rent is
- returning freebies for gift cards
- mooching off more successful associates
- pissing herself over riding in a private jet
- NAMEDROPPING
I can go on...
Anon @ 4:34: Her website name "Nonsociety" was supposed to be a wink to that and it would be a wink, except for she's such a desperate bottom feeder trying to scratch and claw her way into relevancy that it makes her look all the more pathetic.
ReplyDeleteI thought she couldn't wink, thanks to Dr. Bobby injecting all that synthetic shit into her face and giving her the dreaded Wonky Eye, among other deformities.
For that cleverness, I raise my corndog to you, redacted.
ReplyDeleteI don't claim to be insidery except in the area of celebs borrowing clothing. Yes, I know a ton about this subject matter and I'm not afraid to say it. It's a DIFFERENT dress that was on the cover.
ReplyDeleteJulia Allison: "Heading over to Gustavo Cadile (thanks @MaryRambin!) after rock climbing to pick out a ball gown for the White House Correspondents' Dinner. about 4 hours ago from web"
ReplyDeleteSo Julia is going rock climbing and then hauling her sweaty, greasy, post-workout self over the showroom to try on designer gowns? GROSS.
Redacted: Very nice!
ReplyDelete*I did not post anon 5:14. I don't respond to the trolls. I have no idea who posted that.
ReplyDeleteMary really threw Julia a life line with this dress. It would have been nice if Julia could post more than an ambiguous "Thanks @ Mary Rambin."
ReplyDeleteSee, I was going to start rock climbing because I thought it would be good for me and maybe tone me up a bit. If Julia's been climbing with her teacher since she met her last year, and has admitted that she's gained weight and hasn't been on the best of terms with her body, suddenly I'm thinking "huh!"
ReplyDeleteYet again, Julia's endorsed something and I've thought "yeah, that's not the best of recommendations."
After putting up with all of Julia Allison's passive-aggressive (and just plain aggressive) bullshit, I have NO IDEA why Mary Rambin continues to put up with, help and defend Julia. She's a pretty headstrong and straightforward person ... why does she continue to put up with Julia's shit? I know Mary is classier than Julia, but I would have cut that bitch loose a long time ago.
ReplyDeleteanon 5:26: if ja was rock climbing regularly she'd be tweeting it ad nauseum. i wouldn't sweat it.
ReplyDelete3:09 Notice Ms. Vanity would not even blog her own picture wearing the offending dress. Trickery, stunts and massaging the truth bunnies. Have a great day! XO
ReplyDeleteAnon 5:34 - very true. Right, I may take the rock climbing plunge then. Ooh! I wonder whether Kevin Rose will be interested in me if I do! Here's hoping!
ReplyDeleteThe only reason Julia Allison is into rock-climbing, or, more accurately, the only reason why she pretends to be into rock-climbing?
ReplyDeleteKevin Rose, climbing enthusiast.
"Gustavo wanted to put me in this dress for the dinner - but Eva Longoria called yesterday, and she’s taking it (to Cannes) instead!"
ReplyDeleteSo you see, Julia is not really "borrowing" the gown if the designer wants to "put" her in it to, you know, up his glam quotient by having the fab JA parading around in one of his designs.
It's hard to choose, but I would say that that caption has got to be the most pretentious (and delusional) thing I have ever seen her come up with on NS (or anywhere).
Julia Allison has been rock climbing exactly twice - one time previously and today - and both were for some sort of "fun dates" piece. Does she ever take her own "fun date" ideas to heart and actually do them on dates? NO. Nothing but late night drinks all the way. One date took her salsa dancing and she hated it. Most boring, uncultured and unadventurous person EVER.
ReplyDeleteRumor is, many a dress is returned from JA with rips, stains, and body odor smell and some lenders are now declining her requests. I have heard first-hand from one of her dates that her hair was unwashed and she had an odor. Her recent post on lunch.com supports these rumors, she admits to having green bumps of ingrown hair on her vajajay numerous times, yuk!
ReplyDeleteHave a great day! XO
She would have blogged about her climbing previously if she'd done it regularly. Julia likes to make it VERY clear when she's lifted a finger. If memory serves me correctly she went rock climbing once before. So yes, of the 2 times she's gone rock climbing, it's been with this woman.
ReplyDeleteBetsy:
ReplyDeleteShe is pretty gross. Did you ever see the New York Times video piece where she puts on her thigh high, grey, suede boots (chinese laundry, bunnies!!) without any socks.
Way to get smelly.
Ugh
Oh Julia Allison - are you really that delusional to think that ANY designer or brand - even Forever 21- would want you to wear and promote their label? No one is looking for aged looking, chubby, oily never has been sporting some busted cosmetic procedures to associate with their brand. They don't want to "put you" in anything. You're grubbing for freebies - not the other way around. And this the WHCD, not the Met Ball. It's about as important as a Comedy Central roast.
ReplyDeleteBetsy - you can see how oily Julia Allison is in any photo. She has this weird greasy sheen to her and her hair looks like it hasn't been washed for days in every photo - it's plastered to her head. Really weird. Like she has an excessive sweating problem.
ReplyDeleteI bet he suggested that dress and I bet he hadn't even met her in person yet. He probably was just rambling off the dresses he had available at the moment and which ones would be appropriate for the WHCD. She prob didn't even do a fitting yet. I think she was just showing "us" one from his site that he mentioned. But, alas, it was taken at the last minute. She was just claiming he suggested it...they prob were on the phone with each other or something while she was browsing his site.
ReplyDeleteOK, I'm done with my theories!
xoxo
James Del from Gawker is Julia's new Owen Thomas I think. He was photographed molesting her Real. Chanel. Purse! at the dinner she had a few nights ago with David Karp et al.
ReplyDeleteMan, Socialite Rank, those were the days! Julia wishes she was in that realm, but no chance against people with true class and breeding like Tinsley Mortimer and Aerin Lauder.
I'm sorry, but socialites to me are juat as useless as European nobility - especially since most of them spend their days living a hole into the world like that was an achievement.
ReplyDeleteI'm not saying let's take them guillotine, but don't see them for more than they are.
^^^^
ReplyDeleteoops, forgot name.
Her hair would smell because it's one of those fake pelts. Remember that god-awful Vimeo clip that was up for awhile of her kissing the ass of the guy who invented that fucking weird partial wig that you clip onto your head? Ever since then she's been sporting extra-large hair. Must smell lovely after daily wearings for a month. Vom.
ReplyDeleteJulia has stated on the record on a few occasions that she only washes her hair ever 4 days when she is using extensions. Her fucking dog is groomed more often than Julia is.
ReplyDeletePP at 6:39--no wonder, then, that she has to resort to headbands and bobby pins (sometimes both at once!) so often to try to disguise the slatternly state of her locks.
ReplyDelete3:18 -
ReplyDeleteThat photo is the visual equivalent of braying. My god.
This is clearly a Mary-only connection. Until this week, there was not a single mention of this designer on Julia's site, and, of course, she was trolling for a freebie.
ReplyDeleteContrast that with Mary's blog:
http://morethanmary.com/search/Gustavo+Cadile
Mentions of the designer started when she got a loaner from the designer for a ball last fall. Not much after that, until she needed a dress for the LA awards thing.
Very perplexing that Mary would risk this very independent connection on Julia, who doesn't treat anything well.
Julia---Recommendation
ReplyDeleteWEN HAIR PRODUCTS
Mary also wore Cadile to the Streamy Awards.
ReplyDeleteSOrry to double post if I am -- JA is upon vimeo! It's from that speaking 'engagement' at Happy Ending (cardboard podium)
ReplyDeletewhat a loser!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteNOTHING TO SAY
SHOWING PHOTOS OF HER LIFE ONCE AGAIN
"Hi. I have nothing to say, but this is who I am based on people I photograph with."
wow, they're laughing...must be the drinks!?
ReplyDeleteI think she's so sad. I could never laugh.
She's like RBNS'ing herself. Interesting.
ReplyDelete@7;20
ReplyDeletecan you post link?
http://www.vimeo.com/4511599 Found
ReplyDeleteTJ, you're gonna love it!!!
ReplyDeleteYOu can actually trace her life's steady decline if you look at all her Vimeo clips. The ones in the beginning are actually pretty cute and saucy, featuring the nice apartment she lived in with her pre-Jakob ex, hanging with friends at various events, the parties she used to go to and the legitimate magazine photoshoots she used to go to and the television appearances she would make. She seemed to live quite a nice lifestyle that truly was action-packed and still somewhat professional.
ReplyDeleteHer latest Vimeo clips? Sad and lonely ones alone in her apartment with a slanket. Yikes.
She's actually proud of her micro infamy.
ReplyDelete"I like making a fool out of myself. It's a living!" And that sums it up.
TJ, the funny thing is that she says at the beginning that this talk would not be useful and at the end she says she wouldn't give "this particular talk" at MIT, yet it is almost exactly the same as her MIT talk (I was there)...
ReplyDeleteIt's the same talk she gives everwhere. I've heard part of this before, too.
ReplyDeleteI haven't commented in a long while. However, I check this site very often! It's just been a lot of fun.
ReplyDeleteThose 2 videos really hit me, I admit. I think there is some sincerity shining through. I think I'm done watching her as a "trainwreck" now that I believe she views herself as one too. Thanks, Julia. I mean it. It's no longer intriguing to see your next stumble/lie/massaging-of-truth. I understand you now. You agree with RBNS. Maybe not the "nastiness", but the insightful messages that are conveyed here and there. Good luck, Julia. Try and turn it into a "career"; just learn from your mistakes. Being honest is a good step. Keep it up; step it up.
FunnyBunny
P.S. I know I'm all coo coo serious. It's only because I needed this chance to break my RBNS/JA addiction! Where's Ineff!?
It's pretty sick. The ENTIRE talk is a list of lucrative LIES one could tell. Pretend you know people, pretend you're an expert on something that you're not, make up fake stories and tell them to reports...
ReplyDeleteYou really think it's all lies? Geez...I must be so naive. Anyway, to each his own!
ReplyDeleteFunnyBunny
I just think she has nothing else to talk about! It's still ME ME ME ME! But that's all she ever had. SO SAD :(((((((
ReplyDeleteFunnyBunny
ReplyDeleteNo, her advice is to "lie."
TJ,
ReplyDeleteYes, absolutely. She is no model for anyone! Please, I detest her every move...I guess I was hit with a whopping case of *empathy*! I'm easy tho...and I'm looking for a way to stop checking it all out each and every day. I'm getting mad at myself! I can't look back on these past months and say that I'm proud of the knowledge I have of this person. I mean, I sicken myself.
In any case, I think she is the poster-child for consumerism/capitalism. For me, she has blown Paris Hilton et al. out of the water. She buys into so many social constructions that it boggles my mind. I don't think she thinks at all...she strategizes. She does not think.
It's captivating because you just can't help but wonder where she will end up! And I also am so intruiged at who will 'help her out', which kind of verifies, to me, that this world is sad, unfair and full of dumbass people.
Anyway, have fun!

That vimeo of the non-motivational... I'm assuming she put together those shit-looking powerpoint slides in a massive rush or is just terribly unacquainted with the program. Amazing how a "new media" innovator can't come up with something, oh, I don't know... innovative? Yuck. Her self-deprecation is fake, an act due to how uncomfortable she feels and how negative her press presented there has been. I'm not at all surprised she took that angle, she had no alternative.
ReplyDeleteI doubt Julia realizes that Peace Corps and TFA are not just work but hard work and a long term commitment. The Peace Corps isn't going to send you to some island sweetie, you're going to west Africa like everyone else I know in the PC. She wouldn't last a week in either.
