Snob or Slob
Marc Jacobs Mickey Mouse and Furball Headbands: The Powerpuff Girls
Remember last year when so many cozy winter hats turned up with cute little kitten ears attached to the tops? On adults? Well, now Marc Jacobs has taken the idea of animal ears to a fluffy new level of exaggerated proportions. Right out of Disneyland and onto the runway, meet the Mickey Mouse headband ($560)! [...]
Preen “Ash” Maxi Skirt: A Prairie Skirt Companion?
Pros: Thin and bountiful silk-chiffon overflows on this accordion-pleated skirt. A unique yet versatile gypsy-ish print. Preen is a cool label. Cons: The even more bountiful price. A dark denim yoke makes it look a little Sante Fe line-dancer circa 1992. Or does it? So I’m kind of appreciating the fact that this is an [...]
Christopher Kane Biker Jacket
The moment I saw this Christopher Kane jacket I was reminded of a time in 1995 when I wore Renaissance-style shirts with lace trim and a cloth choker with a single pearl dangling from the center. I am so confused I don’t know even how to start talking about this. The jacket is essentially a [...]
KAUFMANFRANCO Utility Skirt
So does this entry belong on BagSnob or CoutureSnob? Is it a skirt, or a bag? Cargo shorts were so popular with the boys, because they had plenty of places to put their items. But I’m not quite sure us ladies have that problem. We have handbags for that. But if you do have that [...]
Jennifer Lopez in Hervé Léger
Jennifer Lopez wore a quintessential New Year’s Eve dress at the Mirage hotel in Las Vegas for NYE. In the dictionary under “New Year’s Eve Dress” you would find a picture similar to this. Super tight. Solid sequins. Preferably silver. Check, check and check. The thing is, I normally wouldn’t except Jennifer Lopez to wear [...]
M Missoni Jumpsuit
What exactly can one say about this M Missoni Space Dye Knit Jumpsuit? Sure Missoni is known for their knit, but I’m pretty sure this is more of a unitard than a jumpsuit. There is a difference. I am sure this is a very soft jumpsuit, but I, in fact, do not have the body [...]
Fergie: Snob or Slob?
Seriously, Fergie: what were you thinking? I know you’re in St. Barth’s to perform at Roman Abramovich’s New Year’s Eve party and all, but a pair of jeans would have done wonders over this poorly chosen leggings. Were you trying to get in ocean mode–having spent Christmas in South Dakota with Josh’s family? While your [...]
Snob or Slob: Erin Wasson in a Low-Cut Jumpsuit
While everyone else was decked out in their finest wares at the “Somewhere” premiere–Sofia Coppola in Louis Vuitton, Stephen Dorff in Tom Ford–leave it to indie spirit Erin Wasson to turn out in this asymmetrical polka-dotted jumpsuit and throw the event’s muted color scheme completely off. I’m all for a fashion adventure, but it’s important [...]
Justin Timberlake in Dolce & Gabbana: Snob or Slob?
Somebody get Justin Timberlake back in his Dior Homme tuxedo STAT! I did a double take–and not for good reason–when I saw him at the SAG Awards. This Dolce & Gabbana outfit is all wrong on him. While I love, loved it on the Spring 2010 runway, I think it’s completely age inappropriate on Justin [...]
Shay Todd Ruffle Bikini: Snob or Slob?
I’m perplexed by this ruffle bikini. It is beautifully made and the colors are stunning but the top looks like it’s made for a 5 year old because a woman with curves will not be able to carry the ruffle off. It almost looks like lingerie without the sex appeal and what’s the point of [...]
