Mob Scene!

I know that this is a "viral" clip manufactured by a fashion chain brand; which when you think about it, defeats the whole essence of a video being viral in the first place. But the kids are just so uncoordinatedly cute. So I had to buy in to their whole commercial ploy and post it on my blog.

Tell me what you think.

P.S. I always thought that viral videos are intentionally or otherwise unintentionally funny independently produced clips by the consumers of the technology themselves being posted onto the interwebs for everybody else's consumption. And not say, a well-thought of plot to increase revenue by posting a produced and manufactured video clip that appears incidental. Thoughts?

I Sold My Soul To Lagerfeld

Leave it to Karl Lagerfeld to comment on Climate Change by making a spectacle out of it! Why not create a whole collection surrounding the issue of the melting polar ice caps and global warming using more fur than he'd even flung at Fendi? HAHA But as a testament to Mr. Lagerfeld's true genius, the fur was actually fake! Polar bears can still hang onto their dear lives standing on that ice cube while PETA saved three or more bucketfuls of pig's blood this season.

But in true Lagerfeld fashion, snow bunnies draped in faux fur was just not enough. So to up the ante, he hauled in huge chunks of real iceberg from Scandinavia to create a fantastical habitat for his little furry friends to strut down the runway. A true champion for the environment, he is! HAHAHAHA

Don't you just feel all warm and fuzzy in those fur trousers!? Yes! And it's a guiltless indulgence it is for all you fashionistas. I cannot wait for next Winter. :D

These boots are just darling! The quintessential Chanel woman -- sweet and charming, with a popped cherry on top walking on ice in the frigid cold. :P

More fur than a girl can fit in her walk-in closet in Rego Park. I think only people that lived in Queens would understand this reference.

If Karl was a girl.

P.S. Now can we talk about the exuberance of these girls!? That is why I will always defend luxury brands, fashion designers, and what they stand for. Even with the use of fake ass fur, the clothes look so rich and expensive. And this is the testament of their talent and genius. Yes Forever 21, put that in your pipe and smoke it!

Do Me Daily Christopher Bailey

And drape me in shearling while you're at it! Burberry Prorsum's military insipred collection for Fall 2010 featured coats for every temperature, occasion... and personal style. And although Mr. Bailey continued to reinvigorate the classic British brand with his own edge and flair (i.e. snakeskin hooker thigh high boots and a lot of lace), he stayed true to the essence that is Burberry -- that clean simplicity, structure, and functionality, can exude class and elegance like none other.

This look just screams effortless style and comfort with a simple cardigan and a huge shearling overcoat. It's like something you would wear just as you rolled out of bed, to buy some milk and eggs to that deli down the block while half asleep... Or drunk. Doesn't really matter. Just as long as you accessorize it with those snakeskins and lace. ;)

The male counterpart of the one above. Coffee and cigarettes?

A zipper for the not so decisive.

I just love the detail at the bottom. L-O-V-E

I love the boots on this one. The straps and buckles just gives them the hard edge that they need. And it's lined for added comfort and warmth. Conquer ice! Conquer snow! Those boots are indeed made for walking. In the cold.

Coat. Do Want! Now!

Them booties just got an upgrade. Winter ready.

I am not usually a fan of quilted anything. And that would obviously include quilts (kilts are very OK in my book though). But this motorcycle leather jacket are just irresistible.

These jackets are just to die for right? I'll have one in every color!!!

P.S. And it doesn't really hurt that Mr. Bailey is really cute, now does it? He can prick me with his needle anytime. HAHA

I Guess, Fall 2010 RTW?

I know, I know. It's a little late. I know. You know what it is, another favorite hobby of mine other than fashion is procrastination. And having to sift through endless designers and looks from Fall 2010 Fashion Week, albeit orgasmic, can be exhausting. Much like sex boys and girls.

So I did what any dedicated fashionista does in times of crises, rely on the ever trusty Style.com site. Here are their highlights, and my favorite looks, from the Fall 2010 RTW runways...

P.S. I would love to hear comments from you guys. I am just basically posting what I feel like without regard for direction or concept. So suggestions will be acknowledged. :)

Neo Tokio... Seven

It finally opened you guys! The new and improved Tokio7. This little nook snugly situated on 64 E 7th Street has finally found a roomier abode. But fear not my fellow fashion minions for it just walked down the block to 83 E 7th Street. What was once a charming semi-basement wreaking of old school charisma (the vintage decor, the old squeaky hardwood floors) ...

Is now a sleek and stylish store with lots of sunlight, roomier fitting rooms, and more racks of clothes and mirrors for your vain viewing pleasure. The store features racks and endless racks of designer clothes and accessories for less. And by "less," I mean dirt cheap for your Louboutins. Where else can you find a $45.00 Mohair Navy Sweater from Costume National? Or pay $60.00 for a pair of Miu Miu Wingtips?

P.S. There were a few items that I wanted to get but felt the inevitable buyer's remorse before the said purchase. Now I'm starting to regret why I did not buy them. Damn.

Alexander the Great

The other Alexander the Great ;). This is his last and by far one of his most emotional collection. Mr. McQueen died about a month ago before this collection was strutted down the runway for everyone's viewing pleasure during Paris Fashion Week this month. This particular collection was so exquisite that even my mom, who doesn't normally worship high fashion, bowed down at the feet of the genius himself.

These are my favorite pieces out of the sixteen looks that were featured. Enjoy. ;)

P.S. Can we just talk about the intricate and clever drapery!? Ah-mazing. And don't even get me started on the shoes. Ladies and some gentlemen, thigh highs are going to be massive. So get yourself a pair. If you want to know more about the master himself, head on over to Style.com or just click this link for Mr. McQueen's latest collection: http://www.style.com/fashionshows/review/F2010RTW-AMCQUEEN
