Prada, The Book

In the new tradition of “book is the new black”, here comes another fashion explanatory tome, this time from Prada.

If you think fashion is something everyone (and their respective dogs) can handle, then get this: this 30 years print Prada recap (only) has 706 pages! It’s basically another way to establish fashion as a cultural institution falling only under the laws of luxury. Prada is not for everyone, and the $150 price tag is proof enough. I’d take a box of chocolates instead! What can I say, I’m a simple girl and I have simple needs. Chocolate is (soooo) good! Especially around Christmas! (via)

Helena Christensen‘s Halloween was pretty messy! She looked like she had taken one or two makeup lessons from Lady Gaga herself!

With multicolored hair, skin and tee matched with a pair of turquoise opaque leggings and Barbie pink stilettos, I can hardly imagine what else she could’ve been except the Halloween Technicolor nightmare of a blank canvas. Also, a match made in colors heaven right after the jump: Christian Siriano as the Little Mermaid! I know, Halloween is a closed book this year, but I didn’t wanted you to missed these colorful pages of inspiration, just in case!

Since I opened a series of Men-articles here, today, let me express my deepest concern about the rumors covering Keanu Reeves’ origins and situation.

I’ve discussed the subject, a while back, as you may recall. But I really missed this one: Keanu Reeves, my ladies, is an Immortal! And he’s been around well.. since forever! Actually, I received the latest: Keanu, my beautiful ladies, has been dropped here on Earth by an Alien ship. (you know, the kind that’s been rooting around the Kaiser) (via)

The following outfit happens in Japan and though not entirely fictional, it’s completely unrelated with any real daily fashion routine we could most likely see around us.

This charming pink princess with perfectly curly hair (is that a wig? No, really, I’m jealous! I reasonably believe even Gaga would be jealous!) is what you should call a Hime Gyaru (a girl who dresses like a pricess). (the story continues right after the jump!)

Instead of treating these two cover-stories separately, I chose to bring them closer together, see the flaws (or appreciate the coherence).

A solo Robert Pattinson on the December 2009 cover of Vanity Fair but a couple-ish Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart break on the December 2009 cover of Harper’s Bazaar. It’s all happening this December 2009, on a magazines stand near you! (the story continues with more images right after the jump!)

Don’t underestimate the trendsetting powers of Heidi Klum Samuel! There goes my first item for the Party Must List: the Feather Cape! Black, shiny, real feathers with a polyester lining underneath and a ribbon tie to hold it nicely together in a cap-form.

Whether you’re into ravens or not, this black feathered piece is the fiercest way to glam up a simple black outfit. Ready to party? (Asos via 2BD)

You really missed this one, Mr Schuman! And I couldn’t feel more happy to be the one to break this perfect outfit to you!

No, he’s not wearing any colorful scarf or riding a bike, nor he shortened his pants, but David Bowie looks perfect! Sporting a full-concrete-grey look, with black shades and a dandy umbrella, he’s the spilled image of a laid back, smart casual city look, isn’t he? (photo via)

For the clubbing generation. Or the Twilight generation. Both tend to live and learn more during the night. Halloween is long gone now and this adds up to the next year’s Halloween must list, right next to that Chanel pumpkin (corner with the glow in the dark eyelashes).

The new glow in the dark jeans (and attire) from Diesel was treated with a special fluorescent coating making some things apparent only under UV lights. (the story continues right after the jump with more images and a video!)
