1. Great shoes! Courtney Crawford, right? Nice choice! Loving your work on the feet. And we’re concentrating so hard on your feet, Lucy, because…
2. Stand sideways to the camera in this dress, sweetie. Sideways. Because from the side, you’re almost getting away with it. From the front, on the other hand? My, but those are some fine, childbearing hips you have there, Lucy. Fine hips, indeed.
Now, the thing is, we know Lucy Liu doesn’t have hips this size: in fact, she has the kind of figure we’d pay good money for. So why hide that light under this Giambattista Valli bushel, we wonder? Why? The sad thing is, this dress could’ve been rather lovely, if it wasn’t for the farthingale effect going on with the hips. We know this is a style Balenciaga have been popularising recently too, but we can’t say it’s a look we love – do you?
Some people just love their designer labels, and that means making sure you have designer everything – even sanitary towels. Luckily for those people, Preen have just designed a range of four special tins for Bodyform, which can be used to store those feminine products and carry them in your handbag without exposing them to the world every time you open it.
All joking aside, we think this is actually a pretty useful idea: if you do, too, the tins will be available with special packs of Bodyform while stocks last. Just make sure you choose one that matches your outfit, ‘mkay?
The good news: Chloe’s ‘Ada’ handbag is currently on sale at Browns. Whoo! Sale! We love it when the words "Chloe" and "sale" appear in the same sentence!
The bad news: It’s still £750. Oh. Ouch. No Chloe ‘Adas’ for The Fashion Police, then. Looks like we’ll just have to stick to our regular, police-issue handbags for the time being.
If we did have a spare £750 in the police coffers, though, this could be a rather satisfying way to blow it. The yellow leather is sunshiney and bright, but not too bright, and the bag itself is satisfyingly roomy, so you could attempt to justify the expense by carrying it every day. There’s also a detachable shoulder strap, and you can pick one up here.
Love animals? Well, that’s just great! Hey, we love animals, too! Do we love them enough to want to wear their little faces all over our bodies, though? Oh hell, no. Especially not when they’re printed on a backdrop of cheap-looking shiny white (or is it pale blue?) fabric. Actually, though, this fabric isn’t "cheap" at all. No, the dress is by Patricia from Paris, and it retails for $474 from eDressMe. Worth it, do you think?
“Now, don’t look at me like that! What you have to remember is that the flamingo who died to make this dress had a good life, and he was totally happy to sacrifice himself so I could go to the prom looking like this. No, he was! And I just bet he’s up there in flamingo heaven right now, looking down on me! And laughing. What? Why are you still looking at me like that?!”
We realise Monsoon’s ‘Antoinette’ dress is actually nothing like the pale green Zac Posen dress we featured as Dress of the Day back in November 2007, but we were vaguely reminded of that piece of gorgeousness when we saw it, which is why you’re now seeing it occupying the Dress of the Day column.
Silver and pale green (or, indeed, almost any shade of green) is always going to be a winning combination as far as we’re concerned, and chiffon is just the right fabric for this dress, which would look lovely with a pair of delicate silver stilettos and some matching jewellery (although not too much).
The design may not compare with the Zac Posen dress, but the price doesn’t either, thankfully – this is £65.
While it’s true to say that there aren’t too many pairs of Christian Louboutin shoes the Fashion Police don’t love, these are the ones we love most of all. They’re the ‘Pigalle’ stilettos, and no, they’re not a new style, which makes finding a pair a little like discovering the Holy Grail. We found these silver ones on eBay, where they’re ending in one hour, at a current price of $779.95, and it was, indeed, like looking at shoe porn for us. The heels! The curve of the foot! The low-cut vamp! These ones are a size 38/US 8, which wouldn’t fit us, alas, but if these are your dream shoes too, you’ll find them here – but only for the next hour…
