MM6 Maison Martin Margiela Convertible Sleeveless Button Down Top: Blue Blob

I’ve seen some weird stuff throughout my fashion years, but this MM6 Maison Martin Margiela takes the cake as one of the biggest slob looking shirts ever. Being cool and different is one thing. (I get that approach and appreciate originality.) But looking like a fashion victim/freak/slob is quite another. I honestly don’t know what [...]

Opening Ceremony Seamed Mini-Dress: What you see is not what you get

I ordered this seemingly cool dress late one night and was sure it would be amazing. (Hello, it’s from Opening Ceremony, ‘nuff said.) But apparently this isn’t always the case. Turns out, this was one of the worst online purchases I’ve ever made. The minute I took the garment out of the box, I knew [...]

Blouson Nior Raffia Bra Top: Raffia Riffraff

Here it is, the most impractical top I’ve ever seen. I’m all about a thick straw weave when it comes to spring totes, but raffia all up against your skin is a different story. Blouson Nior’s raffia bra top is lined in suede (to match the straps and double back buckles), so it’s not itchy [...]

Balmain High-Waisted Quilted Suede Skirt: What Goes Around Comes Around

Vintage Versace…or brand-new Balmain? Without closely examining the embellishments on this suede skirt, it’s a tough call. Either way, the price is anything but retro. And you know only Balmain would charge over $6,000 for a miniskirt – such exorbitance can’t be good karma! Still, the look is considerably fresh, too. Definitive yet relaxed, a [...]

Kim Kardashian in Christian Audigier: You Kan’t Be Serious

I mean…the dress…there are no words. Leave it to master of tacky flash Christian Audigier to detract from a perfectly lovely Yves Saint Laurent clutch. And a perfectly lovely girl! Kim is beautiful, but her wardrobe choices are often questionable. Speaking of questions, does the entire front of this dress un-snap? I understand the urge [...]

Oscars Top Three Not So Great Looks

With all of the awards shows’ red carpets, one might assume these actresses had plenty of practice before the big night. The Oscars are the one night an actress should probably be on point when it comes to fashion (excluding Helena Bonham Carter because we know that’s just not going to happen). But then again, [...]

Markus Lupfer Dreamy T-shirt

Word t-shirts. Probably something you never thought you’d see on CoutureSnob, huh? Though I tossed out all my word t-shirts with all of my free t-shirts from college, I find myself slightly drawn to this Markus Lupfer cotton t-shirt. And by “slightly drawn to” I mean “are you kidding me with this, Markus?” First, it’s [...]

Acne Wannabe Suede Top

One might assume a sheer top would be sexy, but alas, fashion is always here to shock us. Acne brings us this tunic top that is 90% sheer, which sounds like it could be sexy or skanky. Either way, neither of those S-words are what I would use to describe this top. The Acne Wannabe [...]

Holly Madison in Louis Vuitton

Well there’s a title I never thought I’d write on CoutureSnob. No, today is not “Let’s Have Really Sarcastic Blog Titles” day. That actually is true. Holly Madison has been out and about promoting whatever she’s promoting and recently was in New York City at the PIX11 Morning Show wearing Louis Vuitton Resort 2011. The [...]

Drew Barrymore in a Sack, Er, Jil Sander: She Said

Remember on “America’s Next Top Model” when they made the girls do a CoverGirl commercial and none of them could say “Lash Blast Mascara” because, well let’s face it, it’s a tongue twister? That is all I think about every time Drew Barrymore is on my tv and is trying to slur out “new CoverGirl’s [...]
