Suspect Roundup: dresses from the Erin Fetherston Resort preview

Erin Fetherston Resort Preview dresses Suspect Roundup: dresses from the Erin Fetherston Resort previewErin Fetherston is previewing her Resort collection this week and since we love dresses and she loves dresses, we thought we’d show you some of her latest. We love the strapless/tank top hybrid dresses that are a cornerstone of the collection, especially the print version. The girlie one-shouldered dress verges on being a  bit bridesmaidish, but we’d still love to be a bridesmaid in that wedding.

If you’re loving the collection, be sure to check out the French film “L’Amant, which Fetherston names as her inspiration for Resort. “I wanted to capture an effortless, chic sesnsibility in an offering with lots of mix and matchability,” she said.

Hideous Handbags: Roger Vivier Foxtrot Clutch

roger vivier fox clutch Hideous Handbags: Roger Vivier Foxtrot Clutch Well, it doesn’t look like WE’LL be getting much sleep tonight then: the sight of this thing has just guaranteed nightmares enough to last us the rest of the week.

We kinda hope the people who thought this would make a great fashion statement won’t be getting much sleep either, though. It would be only fair, wouldn’t it?

When Fringes Attack: Bruno Frisoni’s ‘Shire horse’ sandals

bruno frisoni fringed sandals When Fringes Attack: Bruno Frisonis Shire horse sandalsYou know those people who take standard poodles and groom them into oblivion, even going so far as to dye their hair crazy colours, and not letting up until the dog is barely recognisable as a dog? That’s what we think of when we look at these Bruno Frisoni shoes. The dogs, we mean, not the owners. Oh, and Shire horses, obviously. They look a lot like the hooves of Shire horses. Bright pink ones. This is a strong sign that what we’re dealing with here is a Crime of Fashion. Seriously, do you want your feet to look like they belong on a Shire horse? Or a poodle. Didn’t think so.

Some people clearly do, though, and if you’re one of those people, you’re going to have to head over to the Bruno Frisoni website for a list of stockists. Don’t forget to tell us what you think before you go, though!

Designer Vs High Street: Martinez Valero’s version of Gucci’s tattoo pumps

gucci knock offs1 Designer Vs High Street: Martinez Valeros version of Guccis tattoo pumpsOK, that’s it, we’re taking in Martinez Valero on suspicion of being, um, “inspired by” Gucci’s tattoo slingbacks to a really quite remarkable extent.

We say “on suspicion of”, but there’s really no question of the accused’s guilt here, is there? It’s a cut-and-dried case, which is why Valero will proceed directly to the Fashion Police jail, without either passing “Go” or collecting $200.

The shoes in question are available at Endless, where they cost $96.22. The Gucci versions, meanwhile, are no longer stocked as they’re from a couple of seasons ago, but cost significantly more than that, needless to say.

[Guest Post] Swimwear Section: Roxy Bermuda Shorts Set

roxyswim [Guest Post] Swimwear Section: Roxy Bermuda Shorts Set

[A guest post by Sian Meades...]

I did a double take when I first saw this Roxy bikini in the holiday section over at Oli. The bikini top is fine. I don’t have an issue with that. But it’s the shorts that I really don’t understand. Why would you want shorts? Not just shorts, I’m fine with little hotpants as bikini bottoms. But Bermuda shorts? I wouldn’t wear boy underwear, I’m not about to start wearing boy shorts on the beach, even if they’re are pink. It just looks wrong. I don’t understand. Is everyone going to suddenly start wearing shorts like this? Would you wear these?

What does your skirt length say about you? These tights have the answer…

tights with skirt guidelines What does your skirt length say about you? These tights have the answer...

Ever found yourself wondering whether the length of your skirt is sending out the right signals? Well, now you can work out EXACTLY what kind of signal you’re sending, with the help of these opaque tights, which provide a handy chart to allow you to measure your skirt length and find out what it says about you.

The sliding scale starts at “demure” and goes all the way to “fatal” with the stages in between being (in Spanish) discrete, subtle, flirtatious, sensual, moody, seductive, provocative, bold, shameless and “warrior”.

Which one are you? You’ll have to buy them (from here) to find out. Would you wear them, though?
