All this plaid and tartan this season! I don’t know what to do with myself! I’m a big fan of plaid as you may know, so this collection was pretty rad. The double slits are like Angelina Jolie all over again except double the pleasure. The purple lining looks …

I just discovered this designer, Antonio Marras this season, so forgive me if you’ve already heard of him and it’s old news to you. Kinda hard to research fashion stuff like this with a baby hanging from your teat and a little boy throwing legos down the back of …
Read More »The Strange Art of Paulo Guido
Check out Italian artist Paolo Guido‘s latest work… it’s like a bunch of orphans that ran away to the circus and discovered they have to do messed up stuff for the promise of CANDY. Anything for a roll of SWEET TARTS! No, really, I’ll do anything for a roll of Sweet tarts. They’re …

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 …

It was the usual gaudy Dolce & Gabbana show, except this time they laid on the gaudiness real thick. There were lots of gilded, gold embroidery upon black for a most dramatic impact. Seriously, it was like Liberace going to a Transylvanian funeral. In other words, I liked it. Anywho, …
Read More »Pretty Potholes
Who says you need to fix roads? Just send artist Juliana Santacruz Herrera to knit the holes away! They just need to set her up on the side of the street with a lawn chair and some knitting needles so she can get on each pothole as it comes along. Put …

Italian Artist/ photographer Christian Tagliavini has a way with cardboard! Check out the incredible cardboard couture. You can see the optical illusion of texture created with paint. It’s like this post I did a while back but with clothes. There’s something cartoony about them that I really love. It’s too bad …

This collection was straight-up FUG, in my opinion. Rarely do I rip apart a collection like this (actually, I do it all the time), but it was like 1960s over again and not in the good way. The diarrhea colors, the shag carpet, ill fitting silhouette…. ugh. I do have …
