Dolman Sleeves - the AGONY


Oh. My. God. Its a dolman sleeve. Look, that's super retro and all but, and I say this from personal experience, the dolman sleeve never looks that good after you've been wearing it in real life. It just makes you look like a box with wrinkled and dangly arm flab. But isn't this a pretty color? The cost is only $350 for this Elizabeth and James Blouson Silk Dress with a keyhole back.

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.

Too Much of Everything


This is too short, too boxey, too colorful, too cheap looking and too much money at $449.00. Happy Easter!

Something in the way she....


I always hate Stella McCartney's collections. There's something about her stuff that turns me off. All her clothes look messy and ill fitting or just poorly made. Check out this sweater, it has wings! Wear it to the new Batman movie premire. It's available for pre-order, and the website doesn't even say what this sweater is made out of. But it is $1695.

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'm On A Wrinkled Roll...


You can't throw a stick these days without hitting one of these wrinkled, crinkled ruched things they call fashion. Apparently I was cool WAY before my time because anyone could tell you that I didn't own an iron until this new millennium. This dress is by Nicole Miller and is being marketed as a Bridesmaid's dress. The bride would have to HATE her ladies in waiting to make them wear this. And its $620 for a crinkled style in dark blue, with a ruched bodice and a gunmetal hem with a fishtail back. Awesome.

Yet Another Ripped and Wrinkled One...


What is up with the "I slept in my clothes" look these days? This dress also looks it was attacked by a lawnmower or something. All shredded and torn, it looks messy. You'll pay $1710.00 for this Fendi Silk Petal dress.
