00:03Fashion jargon changes quicker than runway trends.
00:06And to keep you in the loop, Refinery29's put together a hit list of the fashion catchphrases the pros are
00:12using.
00:16Oh my god, this place is so Manthropology.
00:19Manthropology, the distinctive rustic luxe interior decor style that may include vintage tartan throws, decorative antlers, reclaimed Scandinavian wood, and
00:27mercury glass candle votives.
00:29See any Steven Allen interior.
00:32Manthropology.
00:33Did you get that rustic wooden boat at ABC Carpet and Home?
00:37I did.
00:37I think Stefan has one. How's his beard doing?
00:42Ugh, seriously. The new copy editor just sits there all day and looks at herself in photo booth.
00:48She's definitely the Kelvin of our group.
00:51Kelvin. An ignored, useless, overlooked piece in a system. Like the Kelvin option in Instagram's collection of filters. Kelvin.
00:59I mean, her Instagram account is just bathroom selfies one after another. I'm following.
01:07Dude, are those boots new?
01:10Kind of giving me a rag and boner right now. Like, I'm feeling a little bit aroused.
01:16Rag and boner. The pleasant phenomenon when one temporarily loses control of one's capacities when confronted with a beautiful pair
01:24of heeled work boots, a twill blazer, or anything else David Neville and Marcus Wainwright have breathed on. Rag and
01:29boner.
01:36Hey, Christian. Look at you. Is that a new shirt? And your boots are so good. You're on that Gangnam
01:43Style-ish right now.
01:48Sexy lady.
01:50Gangnam Style. Popularized by Korean pop star Sai, Gangnam Style refers to the local fashion in the posh area of
01:56Gangnam Seoul, South Korea that's filled with designer shops, $5 coffees, and galloping child dancers.

02:12an Oscar Mayer Wiener about it.
02:14Oscar Mayer Wiener. A person who misunderstands another person's compliment as an insult and takes drastic action to shame them.
02:21In reference to Oscar de la Renta's reaction to Cathy Horn calling him a hot dog. Oscar Mayer Wiener.
02:27Wait, are you tweeting right now? Calm down. If Lady Gaga chimes in, we are never sleeping again.
02:37I'm such a rut. I look so gnarly. I literally haven't showered in three days.
02:42Sounds like you need a fashion shower.
02:45What's that?
02:46You need a fashion shower.
02:52Fashion shower. A thing when...
02:54Well, it's kind of like when...
02:56Well, it's hard to describe without an accent, okay?
03:00Anna De La Russo used it once in an H&M commercial.
03:02It didn't quite make sense then, and I guess it still doesn't really make sense now.
03:11You got it, right? Now take a cold fashion shower to take care of that rag and boner.
03:15Did we forget anything? Leave your vocab in the comments below and we'll take a look.
03:18Have a good look.
