As I believe you already suspected this, shape shoes don’t actually shape anything. Sketchers had these abnormally unaesthetic sneakers that they kept on promoting with the promise that wearing them will transform your sitting area into a firm pack of muscles. My dahlings, the FTC fights for us and in this case, they clearly showed that Sketchers manipulated the studies upon which they based their shape regulating claims. I guess we’re back to squats, then? {Jezebel}
You asked for it! (wink) Seeing Charlize Theron with her cute baby boy, Jackson, you agreed it was a question of adorability overload! But then there was this (absolutely legitimate) question: what kind of sunglasses on Charlize Theron’s pretty face? Well, my dahlings, Charlize is wearing Marc by Marc Jacobs oval sunglasses. Which sounds great, since Marc by MB eyewear items sell for appx $100. Happy shopping!
Natalia Vodianova’s Eighties Vogue Russia June 2012 Cover
May 16th, 2012 by kpriss
I was really impressed by Gisele Bundchen’s cheeky Vogue Paris June 2012 cover. It has summer written all over it! In my perspective, at least! But looking at Natalia Vodianova’s photo on the cover of Vogue Russia June 2012, I get frozen shivers down my spine!
There’s so much working against this cover, I’ll try to pick just a few reasons to pass it: the hair – there is such a thing as too eighties! Natalia’s face expression: why so sad and indifferent, Natalia? The yellow shorts: not. even. worth. mentioning! Whoever styled and approved of this, better have something really good inside, otherwise tons of magazines will end up in some basement somewhere. In the dark. Where nobody can see this cover!
Chanel had me all marveled yesterday when I saw the Cruise 2013 collection concocted by der Kaiser. I was hoping for a breathe of fresh fashion air with Bottega Veneta Resort 2013. Instead, I went all “whaaa?” over the haute fashion tracksuits designed by Tomas Maier! Or tuxedo over swimsuit! (there were some pretty designs in Bottega Veneta’s collection too, only they paled in comparison with the main sport – ish coordinate. Paris Hilton will buy it all, I’m certain!) {Style}
Karl Lagerfeld In Saint Tropez. Jean Roch ft Snoop Dogg Music Video
May 16th, 2012 by kpriss
Remember when we asked ourselves what was wrong with Karl Lagerfeld for supporting and promoting Baptiste Giabiconi’s music (and consequent music videos)? I really thought (hoped is a more accurate description) that der Kaiser had more select tastes when it comes to music.
This barely launched video doesn’t help brushing Lagerfeld’s cult listening preferences. In fact, Jean Roch’s childish tune & video suggestively titles “Saint – Tropez” should have more negative impact on Chanel’s head designer’s reputation rather than highlighting his excellent taste. Actually, this song fits right into the Chanel Cruise 2013 picture – I still don’t know if I should laugh or cry!
How. Is. This. Even. Possible? If you think I’m overreacting, please hit the play button to listen and marvel yourself at Jean Roch Ft Snoop Dogg and Karl Lagerfeld Saint Tropez!
Doesn’t this make you want to hit the gym. Like… yesterday? Gisele Bundchen has the looks of a supermodel (what am I saying? The looks of one of those perfectly shaped Greek statues) on the cover of Vogue Paris June July 2012! Very summer – y and all kinds of right, this Inez and Vinoodh picture isn’t something new for Gisele, though. Remember V’s shredded jeans cover? Beyond the cover issue in itself: so dreaming of hot sandy beaches right now! {Vogue}
Chanel Resort 2013 Collection, Versailles Eye Candy
May 15th, 2012 by kpriss
Although everyone seems to be on their high couture horses for the new Chanel Cruise 2013 collection, I’m not certain whether I should cry or laugh at Karl Lagerfeld’s new fashion design deed. If they’ll do a Marie Antoinette parody, they could use some of his Cruise 2013 creations as costumes.
The Kaiser was deeply moved by France’s politics as of late (the very recent elections appointed a left president) but that didn’t stop him from delivering a candy – like collection. Harajuku meets Marie Antoinette. I’m really curious to see the stylists’ interpretations in fashion magazines. What do you think their perspective will be? (hit the jump to see my selection from Chanel’s Cruise 2013 collection; the entire coverage here)
I’m puzzled – aside from being two lovely women, what have these two in common as to end up covering Zoo Magazine’s Summer 2012 issue? Monica Bellucci looking thinner and younger than I would expect and Lana del Rey trying to convince us all that it’s all just a Video Game, in the end. All in being completely retro dark, biensur! A gloomy summer wind sweeps Zoo’s editorial team off of the beaches and into the dark depths of Fashdom!. {tFS}
