Break Time!

Hey there loyal followers! For those who don't already know, I shoot weddings during the season and the season has already started for me. So I'm going to be busy this summer and I won't have alot of time to update this blog. Plus my parents are moving at the end of the summer and I need to start dealing with the strange details of their lives. So I'm taking a break, it will probably last until late September. Sorry and I hope to see you then. Drop me a line to find out how I am doing at lakrause@wowway.com.

LORD I hope I see some dresses like these...

Half a Shirt for Twice as Much

An avant-garde top they call it. I call it Being Chilly. It's $395.

This is really the back, I swear.

My EYES!!!! They're melting....

WOW. Holy cow! I mean, really?? I just...well...what kind of shirt would someone wear these leggings with? I am so confused. Here is the description: Pencey Pieced Leggings. Pencey knows we like a little fun detail on our leggings. Mesh leggings with jersey banding at waist and asymmetrical jersey and lace insets at legs. Stirrup (!) at bottom hem. Sheer at mesh and lace. $131.00.

Technically Not Fashion...but still

Its a Bedazzeled radio for God's sake!! No I'm serious here, I really found this on a department store website. Called the Sonoro Elements Stardust Radio (Google it) it's made with CRYSTALLIZED - Swarovski Elements. Whatever that means. It's also $2,500.00. Yes it is.

Tie-Dye Your Formal Dress

Hey so should I go to a formal occation wearing a dress that looks like I dyed it in my bathtub? Also this dress looks crappy on this lovely size 2 model, she kinda looks tubby if you ask me. $546.00.

I'm Speechless!

Yves Saint Laurent Strapless Jersey Knit Jumpsuit - Sleek one-piece with draped pants in a soft silk jersey knit. $990.00.

Shoes Are Expensive

Some websites only show the shoe by itself sans foot. That leaves us to imagine our club foot inside such a delicate sandal as this. Lovely isn't it? I'll be you could get a sundress in that pretty blue color and make all of it just POP. Fab! Save your money cause these shoes, made by Pierre Hardy and amusingly called "Scuba Sandal", (Huh??) is a pricely $770. Oh and it's made of Neoprene and nappa leather. So don't worry, it breathes.

A Lot of Look Here

Oh Wow...those pants are something else right? Ric-rak in all its glory - my god who would look good in these? This is a actually a jumpsuit. Yes that's right, its a JUMPSUIT. Its made of silk and costs $2545.00.

Meh

Ruffles are in they tell me. And what about this tight dress. It makes me nervous to eat or sit or just breathe in it. The color is correctly called Orchid and it would be perfect for the Easter Egg hunt at the White House. Ooh but don't bend down because this thing will wrinckle like MAD. Its called a Gladiator Dress. Made of silk/spandex stretch charmeuse and its designed by Marc Bower. $550.

My Dream Date

After I wrote this post I saw on one of the gossip sites that my man Mickey was wearing this very jacket! Awesome on him but he's a trainwreck...in a good kind of way of course.
OMG this is awesome! Imagine prom...your wedding....whatever...with your man showing up in this jacket. It is a Floral Ombre Tuxedo Jacket by Dolche & Gabbana. Amzingly it is Hand-painted and has an o-so popular shawl collar with the super stylish one-button front. Uh-huh. Interestingly enough, this whole outfit is Dolche & Gabbana and is for sale. jacket is $4995.00, the shirt is $840.00, the bow-tie is $185.00, and the pants are $925.00 for a grand total of $6945.00 to kind of look like a dork.

Foot Torture

Woe to the feet that are put into these boots...Huarache Boot, Silvertone hardware. Back zip. Allover strap detail. Open toe. 4" covered heel. Made in Italy. $1690.00!

Summery Isn't it?

I am soooooo sick of winter. Would it be great to go someplace where you could wear this sweet little romper...or jumpsuit ....or whatever it is. I mean, listen my big boobs will not look good in this thing. Oh wait, the model's are super little, and she looks like my 90 year old grandma. Well what can you do? This is a silk jumpsuit with bow detail and cutout at bust. 1" banding and ruching at empire waist and smocked elastic banding at back. Gathered elastic banding at bottom hem. Strapless. Semi-sheer. $437.00.

Come On!

For Pete's Sake let's stop this now. I'm this close to organizing a letter writing campaign to try to get Stella McCartney to let her models eat at least once every other day. Once she does this, she will realize that the rest of the world...and when I say "rest of the world" I mean all of us who aren't starving to near death, we cannot possibly wear her clothes. The rest of the world has something that we like to call "curves" and honestly, we like them just fine. But perhaps you are naturally thin and want to buy this Shantung top for $1295.00 and then sell your stove to buy these twill "skinny" jeans (hahahaha) for $295.

Its Not Just For Shower Curtains Anymore

Oh that Roberto Cavalli...he cracks me up. To think that he might suggest you wear these two pieces together is funny. Aren't we always being told that things can be too "matchy-match?" Oh but not here, no sir. Please buy both the top for $885.00 and then the jeans for $985.00. No one will snicker behind your back, I promise.

Is this a Dress?

Um NO. But it is by Stella McCartney and she charges $3945.00 for the Ribbon-Embroidered Dress...buy two and make one dress out of them.
