We have a feeling this may not be a popular opinion, but… we still kinda love these Tom Ford ‘Nikita’ sunglasses. They make a nice change from all of the bug-eye and aviator styles that’ve dominated the past few years (not that we don’t love those, too, mind you: The Fashion Police are sunglasses junkies), and they have a nice little retro twist to them, too, which is always appreciated round these here parts.
It’s hard to escape studs at the moment: they’re on everything from shoes to bags to dresses to harem pants… the list goes on. While the look is getting just a little tired in some cases, though, we can still find some room in our hearts for this Roberto Cavalli messenger bag, which is nicely slouchy, and with just enough studs to keep it up to date, but not enough to make it a one-season wonder.
That’s a good job, too: for £1,275 we’d definitely one more than one season’s use out of it!
After the events of Black Friday, not all of our sites have been updated this week, but of those that were…
Keeping It Realtor finds furniture worthy of a call to The Fashion Police.
The Grumpy Old Bloggers report on WalMart’s decision to start selling coffins.
And Forever Amber continues having the week from hell.
Shoepewoman and Hey-Dollface should both be back to their regular posting schedule on Monday, so if you’re a reader of one of those sites, thanks for bearing with us while we put everything back together again!
Despite being made from plastic, Vivienne Westwood’s ‘Lady Dragon’ shoes for Melissa were one of the big hits of 2009 selling out repeatedly. They’re now available in these four new colourways, none of which have found much favour with Shoeperwoman readers, who weren’t impressed at all. What do you think, though, fashion jury? Are you fans of these new colours, or would you rather see them consigned to the fashion jail?
These are all available from Epaulet, where they’re $149 per pair.
Looks like someone has been trying to get our attention, folks:
Lady Gaga: looking fierce
Sorry, Gaga, we’ve been distracted. Rest assured, though, you’re still our favourite fashion criminal. Also: loving the new “hands always in the same position” thing you’ve got going on here:
We’d almost resigned ourselves to the existence of jumpsuits. We’d even come across a few in the course of our police work that – whisper it – we didn’t actually hate.
Then this one came along and set the jumpsuit movement back YEARS as far as we’re concerned. Years. It looks like some kind of Halloween costume to us – or an outfit for the villain in some kind of camp dance show. Imagine the model with a handlebar moustache and you’ll maybe understand what we mean. And now we’ve thought about this jumpsuit for much longer than we’d really like, so let’s say no more about it and simply let the record show that it costs £100 from ASOS.
