Stop-staring-bonita-dress

  We apologise in advance for this post. We know Stop Staring dresses can cause serious damage to our readers' bank balances, and this one would be no exception in our case, although we know some of you will object to those ruffles.

If you're not one of them, though, this is $160 from here. Be warned, though: people WILL stare…

Beard-hat-moustace-gloves

As some of you may know, The Fashion Police HQ is located in the Frozen North, and this means we have some degree of sympathy for those forced to wear ugly clothes (yes, even Ugg boots) in a bid to stay warm during the winter. In fact, we tend to think these poor souls should be exempted from strict adherence to our usual stringent style policies, because, well, they have enough to deal with.

Then we look at the beard hat and moustache gloves, and we think, "Eh, maybe not."

Phillip-lim-fringed-tunic

  Whee! Look how much fun this model is having in her Phillip Lim tunic! SO much fun! Doesn't it make you wish you, too, had a fringed tunic you could twirl around in, although hopefully while wearing some kind of pants or skirt while you were doing it? Well, that's too bad, because this tunic stands accused of committing crimes of fashion, and until we've decided whether it's innocent or guilty, it's not going anywhere.

In short, the accused is charged with:

1. Taking the current trend for fringes way, way too far.

2. Making people look like they have very hairy backs

3. Being too "wacky" for its own good

We did consider an additional charge of "model without pants", but as that's not actually her fault, we're going to let it go.

The tunic is $695 from eLuxury, but what do you think, ladies and gentlemen of the Fashion Police jury: will you convict or acquit it?

  It's London Fashion Week, which means The Fashion Police have been subjected to more than the usual amount of photos of Peaches Geldof this week. Peaches did take a break from fashion to attend the NME Awards on Wednesday night however, wearing these grey patent 'Late Nights' platforms from Office, which are £75.

These are also available in black, which we would've preferred on Peaches, because we're not huge fans of the "pale shoes with dark tights" look, but we suspect we're in the minority on that one, because we see such a lot of it during the winter month, but whether you prefer grey or black, you can get them here.

Ri2k-grab-bag

  Today The Fashion Police are rejoicing in the knowledge that February, our most hated of months, is finally on the way out, and Spring is at last just around the corner.

To celebrate, we're thinking this bright purple suede grab bag by R12K would make a nice addition to our Spring uniforms. If you think so too, it's £100 and you can buy it at ASOS.com. After all, what better way to chase the winter blues away than with Spring, er, purples?

Dress of the Day: Green jersey dress by Issa

Issa-jersey-dress

  Jersey dresses are a Fashion Police favourite, because they're so comfortable and easy to wear. This one has a bit of a twist – literally – to make it a little more interesting, and as well as this glorious green, it's also available in a beautiful blue, which makes us like it even more.

It's £338 from Matches Fashion.

Chri-benz-jester-pants

We wouldn’t classify these shorts as a crime of fashion. Not exactly. But if, say, you found yourself back in the 16th century (and it happens to the best of us), forced to act as court jester at King Henry’s feast, these shorts would be your friend.

We also have grave concerns that some people will try to wear these with American Apparel’s two-tone tights, and that makes us wonder if we should just go ahead an arrest them anyway, as a sort of preemptive strike. Or perhaps just spirit them away to a Fashion Police safe house until the danger has passed?

What do you think? Fun n’ funky, or for court jesters only?

  Well, folks, the votes have been counted and verified, and we have a clear winner for the coveted Best Actress in a Leading Dress award!

Yes, Anne Hathaway polled 25% of the vote exactly (at the time of writing), with runner up Penelope Cruz on 12.9%. The Fashion Police thoroughly approve of this choice: Anne looked stunning on the night, in her Armani Prive dress, and although we couldn’t actually see them, we also think she deserves a Best Shoe award for what Shoewawa tells us were custom-made Casadei platforms.

Well done to Anne Hathaway, and thanks to everyone who took part in the poll- we loved reading your comments!

 Poor Katy Perry. Out signing autographs, bothering no one and looking perfectly sweet in her little polka dot skirt/dress, when suddenly..POP! Two giant yellow smiley faces appear out of nowhere and attach themselves to her shoulders.

"It was horrific," an eye witness told The Fashion Police. "Katy had no chance: she just didn't see it coming. It was tragic to see such a pretty young woman attacked in such a senseless way."

Katy is currently recovering from her ordeal at a Fashion Police Safe House. Meanwhile, we're putting out ab APB on the yellow smiley faces, which we believe to be armed and dangerous: do not approach them, people – just call The Fashion Police!
