My Fashion Ideas for Jwoww on her "Sick Days"

2010-02-26T18:34:43Z

Since she recently said that her clothing choices were due to an illness (assuming it wasn't mental) she suffered from while they were shooting the Jersey Shore, I was thinking of the things I would wear when feeling under the weather, but still had to be on...I don't know...TELEVISION????

I'm Going Country

State of Grace http://www.stateofgrace.co.nz/2010/summer_collections_02.html takes my breath away with it's summer 2010 line. I think of dusty roads and lemonade stands when I look at these ensembles. Maybe it's the wicker chair your grandmother always kept in the corner of her living room, but I'm feeling nostalgic.

We Lost A Good One

If artists are inclined to suicide, I suppose the death of a designer shouldn't be shocking. But boy will he be missed.

This particular piece makes me think of Keith Herring. Which is why I'm so prone to favor fashion because, as we know, it's moving art. Alexander McQueen, thank you for an endless amount of moving images.

Pringle of Scotland Pre-Fall 2010 Already Amazing???

She looks like a natural element. I would change the shoes but I still love it. Loves it.

Tavi Gevinson Peaks Early?

2010-02-04T23:04:15Z

I am very confused and conflicted. How can I feel inspired by and competitive with a 13 year old? Is this kid really this witty? If she were my student I would give her an F for fabulous only I wouldn't tell her parents it stood for fabulous because I can't stand how smart she is. I can't even deal with this blog post that I'm blog posting about. You had to see the episode to get it, but who misses an episode of 30 Rock with James Franco where he was in love with a Japanese body pillow anyway? Get with it dudes.

The Moschino Cheap & Chic Henry

2010-02-02T13:08:46Z

I get the chic part but where does Moschino get the Cheap part from? I wish they were Cheap & Chic because then I would buy them, right now. Probably the best pair of shoes I've seen...ever. If only I didn't have a car payment. And lunch to buy. See it's times like these I wish I was Tavi Gevinson. You know that little neophyte probably has them in every color. Oh and I will be blogging about her soon. Let's say next actually.

Trailer Park Chic by Motel Rocks

2010-02-01T22:09:52Z

I've always had a thing for motels. Who hasn't? They're sexy, they're slummy, they're there when you need them. And lord knows you need them. So I find it to be no surprise that this cheap bedspread inspired label is so damn alluring. I mean, I would wear this. You would wear this. You're not too good to stay in a motel are you? This dress would go so great with a beer and a five channel tv.

Emma Watson, Luckiest Girl Alive

2010-02-01T09:33:26Z

Can you think of a better person for the job? She's so Burberry I can't believe it's not her own label. And just like Hermione, who else could have played it? And now she not only gets to wear what is in my opinion the best pret-a-porter line in the galaxy, she gets to pose with the finest men in the galaxy. Go Emma, feel free to share some of that midas touch.

The Curse of the Dread Pirate J. Crew

2010-02-01T08:33:33Z

Ever since the recession hit and none of us make as much money as we used to, I wonder who it is that still shops at J.Crew and I wonder how I can wring their necks (out of jealousy of course not just because I enjoy wringing people's necks unless it means I can also steal their clothes once they've been rendered unconscious, in which case...) This short series of selected looks illustrates just how unfair it is that cool clothes are still unattainable unless you come from Fairfield County.

Don't look so confused model face, you should be more mature with a $200 tweed Contessa blazer on.

It's called the Sequined Starland Tank and no, you cannot get this outfit at Forever 21. Trust me.

Ah the Shower Shift Dress, both pretty and funky at the same time, doing what J.Crew does best, combining the simple sophisticated with the edgy wearable. I hate you J.Crew. And when I say I hate you I mean I love you. No means yes.
