Paris is always the last fashion week (the last of the biggies anyway - it seems like there’s a new fashion week springing up every, er week - LA, Mumbai, etc.) because the best is saved for last. It shows the most established and […]
Yesterday, I posted what I consider to be a great dress from Temperley - a really cool way of wearing silvery chain mail. Above, is a silvery DON’T - as in DO NOT, under any circumstances, even if your life depended on it, go there! I ran across this picture and just had […]
This outfit above is ridiculous, no? After this past spring, I was really hoping never to see these low-crotch pants again, but lo and behold, they make an appearance on next season’s runways again. They are extremely ugly and unflattering on women and that goes doubly so for men. I mean, what […]
LoveMyBubbles.com urges you to “Go undercover with a license to ’shake what your mama gave you’ with our new Double-O Collection! The ‘OO-Brief’ provides maximum push-up effect with minimum booty coverage.” So, there you have it - the butt bra - for those of you who desire a little extra lift in the posterior […]
No, your eyes are not deceiving you. The picture shows what you might suspect but may not want to admit to yourself. This is “mantyhose” or pantyhose for men. According to CNN, sales of mantyhose are booming and heterosexual men are getting into them too (no pun intended) for their added warmth, […]
This is 50-year old ex-gangsta Ice-T, star of Law & Order: SVU out with his stripper wife Coco on a recent Las Vegas jaunt. What class! What taste! But still, I argue that BAD taste is ALWAYS better than NO taste. So kudos to them for being themselves (because surely no […]
I have seen this Birkenstock Gizeh thong EVERYWHERE! It is all over New York. A couple of days ago, I was walking on Third Avenue, in the 70s, and I noticed three teenage girls standing in a group, talking on the sidewalk. The reason I noticed them was because they were ALL […]
Now, if you’re going to wear sneakers and hopefully, mercifully, you’ll be wearing socks with them (see previous post), the socks must be WHITE. Why? Because socks of another color are just plain ugly. If you’re going to wear socks of a color other than white, they should be covered by long […]
Summer is in full swing and as much as I love the weather, there’s something I absolutely cannot stand about warm temperatures and that’s the sight of so much flabby flesh coupled with too many unfortunate fashion choices. British pop star Lily Allen is a walking faux pas here and I’m not talking about […]
To my horror, The New York Times has recently decreed that chipped nail polish is in! And if it’s in the paper of record, it has to be true, right? To this, I say NOOOOOOOO! Say it isn’t so! Why, why, why?
The trend is supposed to symbolize a […]
So Naomi Campbell was Andre Leon Talley’s date to the Council of Fashion Designers Awards held at the New York Public Library last night. I don’t quite know what to say about Andre’s outfit because I’m still picking my jaw up off the floor. Did he not realize that it was NOT a […]
There’s a disturbing trend emerging and that is for harem-style pants like these from Rick Owens. I saw someone wearing a similar pair in khaki recently and it was not a pretty picture to say the least, especially because the woman was short and rather bottom heavy. This […]
The Sex and the City movie had its world premiere in London yesterday. Fashionwise, Cynthia Nixon wowed in Calvin Klein, Kim Cattrall looked smashing in one of Vivienne Westwood’s more sedate numbers and unfortunately, Kristin Davis was boring and sedate as usual in her vintage dress.
As for Sarah Jessica Parker, her Alexander […]
As difficult as it may seem to believe even in this tacky, tacky world, it’s the truth! It was announced last week that gossip blogger, Perez Hilton (pictured above), is launching his own clothing line which is to debut at Hot Topic on June 6. Obviously, it’s not […]
The Costume Institute at the Metropolitan Museum of Art had its big gala last night to celebrate the opening of its newest exhibition, Superheroes: Fashion and Fantasy. The exhibit is about how superheroes and their costumes have inspired fashion. It opens on May 7, but to tell you […]
It seems like silly looking flowers are in this season and that is certainly the case with these Miu Miu shoes. First of all, how can one get past the flower at the tip of the shoe? Do the petals drag on the ground when you walk? Do they get dirty? […]
Well, as everyone knows, unless you’ve been living under a rock, Sex and the City: The Movie, will open next month. I know there are a lot of fans out there but personally, I don’t see why we need to see these middle-aged women prancing about again. It went out on a […]
The hits just keep on coming today. We can now add another name to the ever-expanding list of celebs and semi-celebs putting out their own clothing lines. Oh goody - just what we all need! In this case, things are pretty frightening though, because we are talking about Melanie Brown, aka Scary […]
Well, I guess anything, even a polygamist sect under investigation for child abuse, will spark a trend. According to the Associated Press, blouses with puffed sleeves, high necks and ruffles are hitting store racks along with prairie skirts in pastel colors. Long hair too is now beginning to replace the short bobs made […]
These Crocs (or Croc-like shoes) are sensibly displayed next to attire which is appropriate to their use. They are displayed alongside health care and restaurant uniforms. Nursing, cooking and I will add gardening, are the only activities during which these plastic clogs should be worn. They are not appropriate street wear because, […]
