Wearing A Lampshade On Your Head...

...is incredibly chic!  The first few shots of the Givenchy couture show gave me the impression that we were going to see this equestrian, circus ring leader look that dominated the Dior show all over again.  But I should have known better than to doubt my main man R. Tisci, because while tux tails appear to be a trend this season Givenchy's given them a new spin.


And I'm loving the sexy vampire make-up!  And Lara Stone as a runway model?!

LaLaLa Love it.

Back in Action What WHAT.

'Tis the season People.  'Tis the SEASON! And tonight I can't stop thinking about...


DIOR HAUTE COUTURE!!!!!! 

Whoa whoa whoa!  The colors, the make-up...  It's like a crazy sexed up period drama and I like it.  Good God Galliano!!

Erickson Beamon LOVE

Too Cute.

MMM x The Brothers Grimm

Maison Martin Margiela brings us every girls fantasy shoe... the very limited edition Glass Slipper.  This fairytale of a shoe is sold individually at about $1300 a piece, or about $2,600 for the pair.  Prince Charming obviously sold separately.

Classy.  Or should I say "glassy"?

I'M YOUR FAN, Kristen Stewart

Normally I think that I would put Kristen Stewart in the category of annoying celebrity, who falsely maintains that they hate being famous, but the more I learn about this girl --as much as she hates it-- the more I think she and I could totally hang.

As much as I initially despised your too cool, over-life attitude, it's beginning to grow on me.  It's so Johnny Depp.  

Kristen has proven that she is in fact an actor and not a movie starlet / celebrity, like many of her peers.  Which is why I completely understand why she continues to deny her romantic relations with her unbelievably hot vampire co-star.  You definitely don't want to get a reputation for dating everyone you work with.  Plus, Anna Paquin already dating a hot vampire, so it's sort of passe.

(Go girl!)

You've been very responsible with your career, Kristen.  I admire that. 

It seems that Kristen also has reasonable taste in music, she already has a punk rock persona of sorts, which should translate nicely when she plays punk rock princess Joan Jett in the Runaways movie.  (Plus she actually plays guitar).

Though she is well respected by her colleagues and obviously enjoys her craft, Kristen also isn't limiting herself to acting, and says she would also like to study literature in college and become a writer. "I want to go to college for literature.  I want to be a writer.  I mean, I love what I do, but it's not all I want to do -- be a professional liar for the rest of my life." Kristen told Vanity Fair in 2008. More power to you, girl!  It's refreshing to see that there is at least one actress out there who can see her brand expanding through more than just perfume and lingerie.

Anyway, now I'm your fan Kristen, because I think you're smart and probably relatively normal. But most of all because I had forgotten that was you in Panic Room!  Call me!

(Thanks Sophie for the pic that inspired this post! Totally sealed the deal on my fanning out!)

I want to know... (Important Questions)

How is it possible that Brooke Shields needs help growing eyelashes with eyebrows like that?

Stupid.

Shhh! #2

Just between me and you, Forever21 has really cute shoes and they are priced for the pickin'!  I usually choose not to buy cheap shoes, which contributes to my also not buying kicks that are particularly trendy.  However, I am making a huge exception for several pairs of adorable and surely severely uncomfortable, tranny-high heels which sure enough will be mine. 


I actually braved the horror that is Soho on Saturday to take a peek at the quality of the faux leather the shoes are made of and for the most part they're looking pretty good!! And at right around 25 bucks a pop I plan on wearing the shit out of them and never giving it a second thought.  


Can you guess which pairs are in "my bag"?

These "Touchdown Booties" are TOTALLY not me but I'm really really feeling them...

Cute, no?

HOT HOT HOT

Bess Gets Better

My Momz lives next to the Bess store on Lafayette, which basically means that I can't help but torture myself every time I'm in the neighborhood.  But to be honest, the studded and tattered thing was getting kind of old.


So I'm very pleased to see that they're showing a slightly softer side with some supple black leather sheaths (minus the studs, making YOU the stud)!
