The Etiquette Grrls, who have our perfectly manicured
fingers on the pulse of Information Technology, ADORE surfing the
Web! We recommend that you visit the following sites:
 |
Our publisher, Penguin
Puntam. (We're actually published by Berkley Books, one
of their divisions. Yes, it's Berkley, not Berkeley. The EGs
aren't Hippies...) |
 |
Perhaps the best website ever (until the
Advent of EGs.com, of course). And the EGs will Have You Know
that we were reading The
Onion WELL before their book came out, thank you very much. |
 |
Cake
is brilliant! Cake needs to Toss Back A Few avec the EGs!! |
 |
U2.
Although the EGs are Sincerely Hoping that Bono sees the humorous
absurdity of his duet with Wyclef Jean as clearly as the EGs
do. "Straight outta Dublin"? Hahahahaha. But we still
love U2. |
 |
Radiohead.
If you don't own a copy of OK Computer, there is something
Serious Amiss Avec You. Plus, look at the adorable Toothy Little
Beastie! Awww! |
 |
Volvo...
Manufacturers of the One and Only Etiquette Volvo. |
 |
The most lovely, traditional writing paper
in the world is available at Crane's,
and their wedding invitations are To Die For. |
 |
To hell with "Ice Blue Pink" and
"Cherries In The Snow." Bleurgh. The EGs turn to UrbanDecay.com
for lipstick called "Manic Depressive" and nail polish
called "Asphyxia." It is Absolutely Imperative that
cosmetics have Frightfully Clever, Ironic Names. |
 |
The
shop where EGL found her Wedding Gown. |
 |
Speaking of weddings, the EGs will be appearing
at The
Wedding March on Madison! This event is sponsored by the
Condé Nast Bridal Group and will take place September
19-21, 2003 in New York City. The EGs will be part of two panel
discussions on the morning of September 20—we would love
to see our Dear Readers there! |
 |
Everything is black, grey, brown, or navy.
Everything is devoid of Extraneous Decoration. Everything is
Rather Pricey. And plus, Banana
Republic is online, so the EGs can shop at work! |
 |
We do like Godiva chocolates, but those from
La
Maison du Chocolat are Out of This World. |
 |
Looking for a Hostess Gift? Or, perhaps,
just some Really Good Imported Pasta for your next Dinner Party?
Visit Zingermans.com.
(And if you're ever in Ann Arbor, go to their Fabulous Deli!) |
 |
Some of the most lovely gifts in the world
come from this
store's little blue boxes! (And, Dear Reader, in addition
to the Insanely Expensive Diamond Necklaces, etc., they have
tons of lovely, inexpensive Everyday Jewelry and Accessories!) |
 |
Well, some of their Makeup is Un Peu Trendy,
but if you live in the Middle of Nowhere and need some Urban
Decay, Stila, or Fresh products, Sephora
is a Godsend. |
 |
Yes, there's a lot of Junk On Here.
But if you search for Vintage Clothing, or a particular Antique
China or Silver Pattern, you just might find Something Wonderful.
The EGs have! |
 |
Everything in the world should smell like
Fresh's Lemon
Sugar or Honey Linden products. EVERYTHING. (Subway cars, taxis,
industrial plants...) |
 |
Boys! Listen up! You need to Shop
Here. (And since they make a variety of Wrinkle-Free Clothing,
you have no excuse to be Rumpled.) |
 |
If you can't make it to New York City or
London to visit Bliss Spa, try their catalog or online
shop instead. |
 |
By all means, visit their stores in person
if you can (they're very Generous Avec Samples), but Kiehl's
online catalog
is smashing, as well... |
 |
Because when the EGs have to rush to a Strange
City, we don't trust that hotels will be decent. This
site collects guidebooks and reviews (the negative ones
are Most Hilarious). And, oh yeah, producing this site is EGL's
Day Job. |

There is something Completely Bizarre and
Hilarious about this, especially when one is Overworked and
one plays it over and over on an Endless Loop. |
