Teacups & Couture A Fashion Blog by Roxanna Bina

I was so excited to see the new Dr. Suess film, The Lorax, since it’s one of my favorite childhood books ever. I think it’s one of the most underrated stories from the Dr. Suess collection. The movie was wonderful and funny – I highly recommend seeing it in ‘tree-D’. …

This is a super tiny collection by Serkan Curaird, which I’m guessing is a newcomer to the Paris Couture fashion scene. I’ve never heard of him (or her), remarkably, but I’m glad I have now. My fave is the fourth photo of what looks to be a cross between Toucan …

-Bullet Coat Hooks by Brazilian Designer Anderson Horta– This would go great with my three guns vase. –Dsquared skeleton dress– So cool! It kinda looks a lobster is spread out on your back. –Balloon lights by  Estiluz– So magical, especially for a kid’s room. –World’s Largest Coffee or Tea cup from McPhee– I’m …

Oh that Jeremy Scott! I have to give it up for Jeremy because he has probably the most fun, colorful shows at New York Fashion Week. Seriously, dude has got a lot of rainbow, glitter and unicorns in his show to power an entire school of tweeners book covers. But, …

It’s fair to say that the humble pair of leggings has never been a huge favourite of the designer fash pack, but most mere mortals know that a good pair of leggings (in fact, make that several good pairs of leggings) are an essential component of any wardrobe. They are …

Digital Artist Jeffery Scott  takes old images and layers them to make one creepy work of art. I was like, Daaaaaaaaaaaang, when I saw the chicks with a serious case of ghetto booty.  I’ve been to my fair share of ghetto Targets to see  people defying the natural form with their butts …

Dutch designer Iris Van Herpen unveiled her Paris Couture collection making it to be one of the most, if not the most,  avant guarde this season. I think that’s what haute couture is all about- pushing the boundaries to create very special ensembles that stand out through masterful workmanship and ingenuity. And …
