Dear Marc, it's time for the 200th letter.
Do you remember how it all started?
My trip to London, because of you?
The happy ending?
My fitting room angst?
My failed career as a drummer?
My constant battle with my inner and outer looks?
My fight to find a wine resistant white coat?
My life coaching advice? ( it really works!)
My close brush with Vanilla Ice?
My clever observation of resemblance between Donna Karan and famous mummy?
What letter do you remember most fondly?
I loved every one you never sent!
yours
-e

e,
I'll address you with your diminutive because it reminds me of e.e. cummings every time I see it.
Just a quick note of thanks. You are so good. Don't ever stop. Quite possibly the best free thing on the internet.
Do you ever track him on Gawker? Isn't that the one that tracks celebrities around NY with little dots on a map?
I should do my research before writing... *sigh*
your blog has been a breath of happiness every time I open it. I also hope you don't stop.
But if you wanted to write to others, why not try Great Designers Who Have Been Gathered Unto, like Balenciaga (what's not to love?) or Yves St Laurent (yes, TECHNICALLY he's still alive but you know what I mean) or the late amazing Christian Dior? If you find one who speaks to you....but I concur with the previous comment, don't stop!
Or what about Claire McCardell? How can one not admire the woman who invented the purse on a belt and American sportswear in general? Or my own unrequited love, Geoffrey Beane?
Ok, this is getting a bit embarrassing. I think I'll sign off now.
Best regards and admiration!
your blog is so cute...i wonder if MJ is reading...
What's Haute and Hauteness.
Marc is definitely reading. I can feel it. And he'd be a total dumbass if he's not.
Just discovered your blog...(smiling still).
Those boots are truly wonderful.
Please continue with your letters!
keep writing to marc. everyone is already accustomed to the wonderfully titled "Letters to Marc Jacobs"...."Letters to Beyonce" just wouldn't have the same appeal!
p.s. your blog is so wonderful....
I think marc is reading. His company website is one of the best of any fashion company, so he's plugged in enough to know about you. He's probably scared to reply because then you might stop writing...so he's really doing us all a favour. But it'd be nice if he sent you some free shoes wouldn't it!
dear e,
i've read numerous blogs and its all paled in comparison to yours. Its not really a blog, but little short stories that makes me want to write my own blog...as they say, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. I think mine will be to Miuccia Prada or the underrated Phoebe Philo...but i dont think i will...partly because all the good 'blog' names are taken...but mostly because you're just inimitable :)
