The other day we all took a long time out of lives for the laudable and very worthwhile pursuit of examining the fashion of Hannah Horvath of the HBO show Girls. Today we turn our attenthion to her room mate and best friend, Mamie Miles.

Prim, polished and unbelievably square, Marnie is the complete fashion opposite of Hannah. Here, Marnie demonstrates how great taupe works with a printed A-line and silver chronometer. Of course, a monochromatic bamboo-chomping panda in the bg always helps amp up the style factor.

In true Marnie-style ever-ready fashion, the svelte scenester strikes a pose with her plastic cup of Pabst, in the hopes of catching the ray-ban bespectacled eyes of a tortured artist. Booth Jonathan, to be exact. Note to Marnie: shaking a fist and smiling is probably not the best way to be genuinely avant-garde… we suggest a matching Pink Elephant ciggie and an unaffected air of horny disdain next time ‘round.

Looking disgruntled and still insufficiently boozed up to forgive Hannah’s lateness to her own party, Marnie manages to keep it together in a slinky block-striped blue and army green tank and some low-key metal accessories. Don’t worry Marn: rest assured that Hannah will probably never be punctual.

In a rare instance of feminine bonding, Marnie sits astride the formica bathtub in a tiki-ish beach towel while chatting up a nekkid Hannah, all the while making sure her pink lady speed Schick razor is at the ready should Hannah attack in a fit of insanity.
