Something to Time Travel In


When the Morlocks are chasing you you'll be glad you chose this incredibly short dress by BCBGeneration - they say it "gives the shimmery charmeuse dress a futuristic look with colorblocked details." You betcha. Only $118 so buy a few because those Morlocks...well you might not get the stains out. That's all I'm saying.

Stevie Nicks was having a garage sale


Witchy Woman! Super cute dress to wear to your Coven Meeting, or when your boyfriend is scheduled to be hung, or maybe the Annual Witches and Warlocks Association is having a potluck. Anyplace else, this sucks. Pick it up for a whopping $1990.00 for the following: Semi-sheer off-shoulder dress in silk chiffon. Tonal metallic detail throughout and drawstring at ruffled hem. Awesome.

DO Be Careful!


Sorry about the long absence - I needed a break from searching the high end store's web pages. There really wasn't anything interesting a month ago. But now! On my first pass here I find a horrible purple dress that would look better on a curtain rod. This is a Pleated Silk Drape Dress in Concorde (as in the jelly) and is 100% silk. Spend $595 to have this look.

Groovy Zebra - Big Sleeves


Whenever I see these big sleeves I worry that they might catch on fire. its irrational, I realize this. No one is going to make a grilled cheese sandwich while wearing this dress. But I think of it just the same. Its a cheap one today, $270 for this silk dress.

I Found My Mom's Housedress


This "shift" dress has crossed a line somewhere into the dread housedress territory. I want to blame it on the pockets in the front - they are horrible and ill-placed. The color is very K-Mart circa 1978. Bleh. And its $288. Buy this at your own risk.

Urban Adult Waif


The model here looks so forlorn. Of course she does! She is only wearing a wrinkled shirt and horrible boots. Why does she have tan boots on with a grey dress? Why is she trying to look like an unhappy 11 year old? This dress was from my favorite Urban website costing you $48. Even tho its a bargain, is it right?

Toilet Paper Squares


I couldn't help but think this one looked like TP squares stuck to a plain dress. But why just the front? Did they run out of patience with it? The model is a lovely woman and the color suits her but its not attractive or complimentary. If you are spending $4990.00 for this dress, the least they can do is finish the back.

What blows my mind here is the exposed back zipper. Wow that is unsightly. Especially the way it stretches the sweater fabric in such an obvious way. Yuck. And I think the whole horizontal stripes thing is ugly. But maybe you have a $248 gift card and would love to pick this up.

Well I'll Be Dipped... In Silver


Sometimes I have a problem with the whole set up of photo. Like with this one. The beehive hair-doo they have the model in is too much. I also think the model might have a tumor or implant gone awry in her butt. The one cheek is HUGE and the other, not so much. I want to know what this material feels like, it looks so silky and cooly metallic. The cowl neck in back is kinda 80's Dynasty retro. The whole look is something only Krystal Carrington could pull off. But for $220 this Oleg Cassini dress is quite the holiday bargain.
