Not to be confused with a Dental Dam (PS– saran wrap?? really?), these are cakes with teeth by the talented Scott Hove. You may remember his work , ‘Cakeland’, which you can read about here. Hove’s delicious creations may look like that top bitch alien in Alien, but they are nothing but layers …

I love love love this collection by Meadham Kirchoff! The pastel colors- the girlish touches, and Teddy Bears!! My fave has to be the mint feather dress in the 8th photo. It looks bouncy and cuddly like Mr. Marmar. I do see some influences by Fam Irvoll and Irregular Choice. The …

Dutch sculptor Cedric Laquieze (above) needs to get on doing centerpieces for weddings, bar mitzvahs and golden anniversary functions. I mean, I wish I had a skeleton floral arrangement for all the fancy times I’ve organized. After a long look at the last photo, I finally figured it looks like the evil …

I’m not sure if such existed- a 1940’s hippie, but in Anna Sui’s mind this is what they would’ve dressed like. I’m loving the peter pan collars and demure sleeves. I like that the socks and heels trend is still going strong. But the best part of this collection …

Two things come to mind when I hear ‘Oscar de la Renta’ : A) Old ladies who get their hair done into a basket for the week. B) ‘Oscar de la Rent Me’ as my charming brother would say. Anywho, These are my favorite picks from the Spring collection and …

I have to tell you that every time I see the word Preen, I see the word Peen. I’m not a psychologist, but I’m thinking something’s not right in my brain sometimes. Maybe it is right. Whoever came up with that label name just wanted to mess with me. …

Got a hunched back? Guess what ? It’s in this season! Who knew osteoporosis could be chic? Anyway, Thom Browne brought back the ‘Jewish accountant with an affinity for sail boats and with a serious comb-over situation‘ look for his Spring 2012 collection. That’s not the only look working for …

Every time I see the name Agatha Ruiz de la Prada, I think of Agatha Christie, Risotto and Prada. Now that we’ve got that out of the way, I love how her Fall collection is so playful and cheerful. The hearts , the rainbows, the PINK! The only think missing are …
