helmets…

Karl Lagerfeld is designing these helmets, I’m thinking about getting one for riding my bike. What do you think?

What is going on here??

From the Victoria Secret fashion show last night (which gets more and more ridiculous every year)…

Is this lady looking at me weird?

Today’s Roberto Cavalli blow-out sale is tacky to the max, but people still seem to be jumping on it. This thing looks like a bad upholstery cover – lucky for my couch, it’s sold out.

Louis Vuitton..

another fur fail

Not to be gross, but I usually pull the little blonde hairs off my toes every time I do my toenails. So I don’t see the point in wearing sandles that make it look like your foot has run off and mated with a mountain goat.

This is from the Jak & Jil blog, which I am really warming up to, and the fall Louis Vuitton collection, which is, in my amateur and clearly unsophisticated opinion, an abomination.

Review of Raw Minerals

Carmen — Mon, 05 Oct 2009 18:48:15 +0000

So I recently tried a free trial from glow.com (I am not linking it because no one should be visiting this site) for only $4.95! That is until 30 days go by and if you don’t read the fine print (i didn’t) then they charge you a whole lot more! I called and they are refunding me half – but its not good enough. Especially because their product sucks. And I’m not just saying that because I failed to read the fine print. I’m saying it because its the gosh darn truth. If you want your face to age 10 years right in front of your eyes then by all means cake on the Raw Minerals! They want you to believe that this 4 (four!!) step process of putting foundation on your face will make you glow like the airbrushed models in their ads. I’m not that much of a sucker ok, I live in reality, I know what photoshop is, but I thought I would try it. With each new layer I put on it was like the natural glow of my skin (yes, i have that) disappeared only to be replaced by a desert… a cakey, dry desert…on my face. And no, its not because I didn’t apply it right. I think any time you are required to put 4 layers of stuff on your face its not going to look good. I knew that already somewhere in the recesses of my brain, but now I know it for REAL!

confirming my suspicions…

…that Marc Jacobs is playing an evil joke on us all this season.

Fashion week unfortunately has about as much impact on my life as a Canadian holiday

Perhaps you’ve already seen this, but just in case, Marc Jacobs Spring 2010.

Honestly, I am not sure what is going on with about 90% of those outfits. I feel like the underwear-on-top-of-the-clothes look has been attempted a number of times before, and we can be fairly sure by now, it’s never going to look good. I do want to point out that, having purchased a fanny pack in the last year, I was clearly way ahead of the game on that trend!

Here’s one I like: Donna Karan. I suppose it means she is bit tame, but I would wear every single outfit in this show.

Finally, check out the first picture, here. Is it just me, or is there a trend towards giant, multi-colored feathered puffball clothing? And if so, why?

geez…

This shirt would come in handy when I need to blow my nose. Only $728 for an extra large tissue! Thanks Dolce & Gabbana!
