Dear Lola,

Oh, Lola, how could you? You incurred the wrath of Gawker and left local bloggers puzzled as to what you were about, you coy little vixen!

You claim to be the Boston Globe's new fashion magazine. You claim to be Boston's newest best friend. You resemble Louise Brooks, but shrunk down into the size of the old TV Guide. You seem so harmless at first glance.

But we've discovered that you're a little loose (is that why you're free of charge?), and you have ties to Barry Manilow. The city has known of you for only a few days, and it's already terrified of your presence. Oh, Lola, what have you done?

On Common Ground thought you would make Boston more fashionable, which the city so desperately needed after a Fashion Week that was - oops - held in the same week as New York's. But your name means "sorrows." Lola, what are you saying about Boston's fashion sense? Are you a best friend -- or a backstabber?

We hear you will descend upon town November 16. And then we'll discover what you're truly about, you little minx!
