I’ve written about Dora Abodi in the past, so you already know I like there collections, in general. This time was no different- the turquoise and gold used throughout was really pretty and and is one of my favorite color combinations. Reminds me of a Russian palace or a peacock. Or that …

– I love love love plaid, so Chanel’s Pre-fall collection was perfect! Some of it was super old lady, but some of it was hip. My favorite picks from the collection are above. I just love the feeling of cashmere or wool in the dead of winter! So cozy mozy….although …

Designer Vika Gazinskaya‘s Spring 2013 was based on clouds, rain and idyllic country scenes. I love the extra Dynasty ruffles on the shoulders and arms. It’s kinda like one of those frilled dragon animals. They puff up their collar ruffles when sh*t gets real. I guess sort of like Alexis and Linda …
Read More »The Animals of Louis Vuitton
Check out what British artist Billie Achilleos did with a bunch of Louis Vuitton bags. Last year, taxidermist Deyrolle did the same. I like the owl the best. It has pockets for boobs. Anywho, I guess this will be a tradition every year… this collection will be making the rounds at various …

It was about the birds (that’s British-speak for ‘lady’ ) and the bees for McQueen. The show had more fake flowers than a 99cent store, which I have to say , I LOVED! The honeycomb design was also super cool and of course, the caged corsets were KILLER! I love …

Gaultier’s show was a parade of all the 1980’s icons in music… Madonna, Annie Lennox, Michael Jackson, Sade, Boy George, David Bowie… basically everyone who was on MTV first back when they were playing music videos and not a bunch of trashy, drunk, oompa loompa’s in their habitat. Anywho, I thought …

I love the direction that Dsquared took- 1990s Chanel biker chick. The heavy chains, the quilted black leather, the biker hats… so badass. I guess we can start piling on the chains, pearls and what ever else that shines around our necks and waists. Yay. In the late nineties, I was definitely guilty …

Dolce & Gabbana’s Spring collection was totally inspired by The Olive Garden. The breadstick baskets, the bags of semolina flour- I see what you did there, boys! I have to say, this collection is really cool and has elements of 90’s Moschino in it. Remember that collection Moschino did with …

Okay, I only posted this because of all the pink outfits. And that first one is so foofy! Couldn’t resist! That last outfit is made of butcher paper which I find pretty awesome. Something to do with all those Italian cold cut wrappings after all…. Besides that, the rest of …

First off, I thought Betsey Johnson closed everywhere, so there wouldn’t be anymore tutus and animal print for us out there anymore. I am pleased to see she’s continuing, because where else would we get overpriced girly punk prom dresses? Obviously, my fave look is the raccoon outfit. That is …
