Today's Dress of the Day was nominated by Sian (whose fabulous Domestic Sluttery blog comes highly recommended by us). It's £30 from Next, and Sian says:
"I love. I want for festivals. I own nothing form Next, but I've seen about six dresses in there I want to buy. I'd also like skin like the model in the photo but that's another story."
Does Lady Gaga get ALL of her clothes from Maison Martin Margiela, do you think, or just most of them? Because we can TOTALLY see her wearing this top, can't you? And with nothing underneath it, if we know the good Lady, too.
If you want to risk this one, you can buy it here. We'd recommend stocking up on the ol' "tit tape" first though – otherwise this will, as the headline says, be a wardrobe malfunction just waiting to happen.
Question: If even Dita Von Teese managed to dress reasonably appropriately for Coachella, why did Agyness Deyn think it was OK to rip down an old lace curtain and drape it around her body over the top of her underwear?
We didn't think we'd ever catch Dita Von Teese in anything other than her usual skyscraper heels, but it seems the Coachella Music Festival this weekend forced even Dita to go for the practical option. Dita still managed to keep her retro vibe alive, though, in a printed dress and coiffed hairdo. And at least her Louboutins were safe from the grass stains…
It's not quite in the same league as The Cheesburger Dress, but if you were going to be wearing the Cheesburger Dress (hypothetically speaking, natch), this would make the perfect accessory. Or perhaps you prefer hot dogs? Because there's a hot dog version too, and you can see it under the jump. You're welcome.
Both bags are the creation of designer Hannah Havana, who uses her work to try to make making ordinary things extraordinary. For some reason, we're feeling kinda peckish now, so we're off to raid the Fashion Police fridge. If you'd rather carry these than eat them, however, they're stocked here.
These images were brought to our attention by our own Mousy, who spotted them at Style.com. We're just going to give you a moment to take stock of what you're seeing here.
Yes, it's shoes that make you look almost exactly like you have the legs of a pony! Like a centaur, almost! Neeiiiigh!
Now, we'd have to agree with Mousy that the things you see on the catwalk can, indeed, be an amazing sight. But we'd also have to agree that there are just some cases where what happens on the catwalk needs to stay on the catwalk, and never make it into the world of mainstream style.
We have a whole bunch of reader-nominated Dresses of the Day to get through, and here’s the very first of them. This bird print dress is £16 at Asda, and was nominated by Raechel.
Raechel says: “I picked up this lovely little dress from ASDA, and thought for the cheap old price of £16 it was a complete bargain! Thought I’d let you know about it, I’m sure it will sell out soon!”
Indeed, it has already sold out online in some sizes, so if you like it, you may need to look for it in-store.
Crocheted shoes. That’s… something we hoped we’d never have to see. See them we have, though, and having seen them, we feel we have no option but to send in some officers to bring them back to the cells. Sorry, shoes, this will hurt us more than it’ll hurt you. (Note: not really.)
Not being crocheters ourselves, we do have some questions about these which maybe those of you more versed in the ways of crocheted footwear can answer for us. Questions like: how long would it be before the wool frayed and our feet burst through the tops, like the Alien bursting from Sigourney Weaver’s belly? Would they smell like wet wool when it rained? What happens when the tops get dirty? Does anyone else think the pink uppers look a bit like entrails, if you kinda half close your eyes, and squint at them a bit? And finally, that age old question: why? Just… why?
