You aren't going to get a good article about her aesthetic push in Google without a mention of either her upcoming marriage or her taste in ODLR.

Vogue's article was worse.

They post her in women's mags because she is cute, she's has designs touch, and she works for Google. I would prefer to see Caterina Fake. She has a brilliant understanding of HCI, that most of us will never top in our lifetimes. She's has doctorate from RISD. She's doing the startup thing RIGHT NOW. She's brilliant. She also has great style. You know that because no one would dare go up to her after a presentation and say:"Is that Jane Mayle you are wearing?" She just pulls it off as a professional, and that's that. (seen this in person at the New York Tech Meetup, I actually recognized the jacket she was wearing from somewhere, but she wore it perfectly, and no, I would not have dared go up to her and asked, where did you get said jacket.)

Bad conde nast (though I will vogue and W forever)
