Such beautiful hats! Los Angeles designer Arturo Rios specializes in these fancy hats that make other ladies wearing JC Penny Sunday church hats at the Kentucky Derby give you a ‘bitch please’ stare. That’s when you know you made a brilliant fashion choice! My favorite has to be any one hat …

Check out Paris-based artist  Lorenzo Nanni’s designs. I can’t help to think of mold, petri dish growths. But, I’m in a yeast infection sort of mind , so don’t mind me… maybe Lorenzo is, too! I am digging the corset that looks like intestines. It’s like the inside has been …
