Dress of the Day: Vero Moda ’50s Swing Shirt Dress
Daylight Robbery? Marina Calamai cherry ring
It’s cute. It’s whimsical. It looks like the kind of thing you’d pick up in Claire’s Accorssories, and pay less than £5 for.
But it’s not. Actually, this little cherry ring will set you back £819 / $1,332. Now, we’re going to assume that’s some kind of precious metal at the base (Colette haven’t specified what it’s made of), but even assuming it is: if we’ve just spent $1,332 on an item of jewellery, we kind of don’t want it to look like it could’ve come from Claire’s.
Is it just us? Would you pay that much for this ring? Click here if you answered in the affirmative…

ASOS balloon shaped skirt: model hides her face in shame
Is this the most unflattering skirt you’ve ever seen? What about now, fully ‘inflated’?
The poor model has resorted to hiding behind her oversize sunglasses in a bid to hide her identity. And don’t even get us started on the sandals the poor girls has been forced to wear with the skirt.
Perhaps the only redeeming feature about this is the price. It’s just £30 so the fashion victims out there can wear it once, be ridiculed by their friends, and not worry about the cost when they never wear it again. Although, as they’re fashion victims, they won’t care about the cost.
What do you think though? Is this a must have for spring or is it as ridiculous as we believe it to be? You can buy it at ASOS.

Save or Splurge? Erdem vs Topshop red lace 3/4 sleeve dresses
Two very pretty dresses with two very different price tags!
Ok, so we’ll admit that the lace on the Erdem dress looks finer, softer, that little more delicate than on the Topshop. But to justify the price tag it would need to be bought for a somewhat special occasion. And the Fashion Police being the clumsy sort, we can almost guarantee that the lace would get caught on something or someone at some point in the evening, resulting in much wailing and teeth-gnashing in anguish…
Yup, from our perspective it’s better to be on the safer side and go for the save. But what about you? Would you splash out on Erdem’s Margot lace dress, or hover under £50 with Topshop’s three quarter sleeve red lace number?

Unsolved Mysteries: Cutaway swimsuits
Swimsuits like this one by Red Carter probably cover just as much flesh – or maybe more – than a bikini would.
So why do they always look like they’re verging on the obscene to us?
After all, it’s not anything like as bad as this one by Jersey Moda:

The Emperor’s New…Christopher Kane biker jacket
It’s like the neon ghost of a REAL biker jacket, isn’t it?
And it’s almost $1,600.
For a pretty-much see-through jacket that will neither keep you warm or make much of a fashion statement: other than, “The emperor isn’t wearing any clothes,” obviously.
Is that the Daylight Robbery alarm we can hear going off?
