Leggings Are Not Pants: Phi legging-fit satin pants
There’s a serious indecision epidemic sweeping the world of fashion just now. Last week we had the case of the combat trousers that thought they were harem pants. This week we’ve the leggings that believe they are actually trousers.
Yes, in a potential camel-toe nightmare, these trews actually claim themselves to be “legging fit” and therefore worthy of flashing both the general crotch area and that wonderful contrast fly. What you can’t see very clearly from this image are the mesh panels up either side of the “trouser” leg, which make the wearing of underwear a potential minefield and give VPL a whole new level of meaning.
Would you wear these “trousers”? If so, you can grab a pair for £740 £222 from The Outnet.

Holey Clothes: Julien Macdonald fine-knit slash-detail sweater
We can’t see this model’s face but we imagine that she looks pretty upset. She’s just paid almost £600 for this sweater and it’s falling apart already! We’re not sure whether she caught her shoulder on a nail, or was viciously attacked by some relation of the clothes ripper. Either way she is in danger of the right shoulder giving way completely, leaving her in rather a predicament as she may end up revealing more than she initially intended.
Net-A-Porter call this a ‘directional separate’ and it’s directional alright. We just feel it should be heading in the direction of the rag bags as we’re not sure such an amount of damage can be mended, no matter how talented the seamstress.
What do you think though? Would you pay £590 for a sweater with holes in the shoulder? If you would, you can buy it here.

Heard the one about the policeman who wants to be paid to get dressed?
This week in the Midas Media Blog Network:
Shoeperwoman admires Pixie Lott’s Miu Miu shoes.
Dollface rounds up the best foundation for pale skin.
Keeping it Realtor takes inspiration from the Big Brother house.
And the Grumpy Old Bloggers uncover the curious case of the cop who wants to be paid to get dressed for work. Given the amount of time it takes US to decide what to wear in the morning, we only wish we’d thought of it first…

Fashion Police Glossary: The Dress-Like-a-Toddler Trend
The Dress Like a Toddler Trend is a fashion movement which, although not particularly widespread, has still proved to be popular with some people. Some people who feel that adults should dress like toddlers, that is.
A large part of the Dress Like a Toddler Trend involves the wearing of adult onesies:
These guys think they look really cute, quirky, and, like, totally adorable. They don’t have girlfriends.
If they were in the comfort of their own home, it might be OK. (Unless, of course, they were hoping to get lucky that night, if you know what we mean). We’re not saying you can’t ever choose comfort over style, you see: we’re just saying that when you’re wearing the same clothes as your 11-month-old, you might want to reconsider…

Marks & Spencer’s 2 Sizes Bigger Push Up Bra Predicted to Sell Out by Saturday
We’ve heard of waiting lists for handbags and shoes, but a waiting list for a BRA? Yes, 1,600 people joined the pre-launch waiting list for Marks & Spencer’s 2 Sizes Bigger Push Up Bra, but that was just the tip of the iceberg, because since it went on sale last weekend, the bra has been selling so fast M&S predict it’ll have sold out completely by this Saturday.
As the name suggests, the bra is designed to make you look, er, two sizes bigger. It does this using a super-light foam which is half the weight of traditional gel pads, and also has straps that can be crossed at the back to give the girls even more of a lift.
And that’s not all. According to the press release on this, the bra “is literally flying off the racks”. Literally? This we have to see: seriously, two sizes bigger is all well and good, but a bra that can FLY? Awesome.
The bra costs £20, comes in black, fuchsia and grey, and can be purchased online here. If you do miss out, however, don’t worry: more stock will arrive in September, and will include white, leopard and zebra print versions.

Marni’s goat hair leather handbag: because you can never have enough hair…
Marni’s goat hair leather handbag. It would be like having another head, wouldn’t it?
And who knows, maybe that wouldn’t be such a bad thing? Anyone have a Girl’s World when they were a kid, for instance? Or even just a Barbie? Remember all those hours of fun, combing her hair, plaiting it, tying pretty ribbons in it… This would be like that! Only £650!
On the other hand: who really needs another head in their life? Isn’t one enough? It’s bad enough having to wash, blow-dry and style the hair we have every morning. Imagine having to get up early enough to style your handbag, too! Would it need shampoo, we wonder? Is there a special “Goat’s Hair Conditioner” you can buy to keep it looking its best? Wouldn’t it be a pain having to blow-dry it every time you got caught in a shower?
Yeah, we’ve talked ourselves out of the goat-hair handbag, folks. Phew! That £650 remains safely in the bank! If you like this, though, you can buy it at Net-a-Porter, then, just for giggles, try waiting until your partner/brother/parent/cat is asleep and then scaring them witless by placing it on the pillow beside them. Fun for all the family, you guys! Or, actually, maybe not:
