my friend sam is a FIERTH BEATH!!

u know ur doing it right when the runway copies YOU.

on Style Bubble, suzy bubble blogged about the paris menswear ss09 runway trend of shorts over leggings.



She seems somewhat ambivalent about this look, but not only do i love it, i have always loved it. and i must must must give cred to my friend Samuel Vasquez.( Sam is also one of the main curators of 1830 sunset!) He is the first person ( well, the first guy) to shorts over stockings/leggings/black sheer pant-things. not only did he do it before the PARIS runway shows, he did it a whole year before.




is he not a FIERTH BEATH!!

kudos sam, u r one of my fashion heroes.

it also goes to say that designers totally copy streetwear.

another smile, but pointy shoes really!?!

another rare pic caught of mk. ( where's ashley?!!!) again, mk is smiling. im a little over her kimono style dresses now. perhaps i have a distaste in my mouth for kimono dresses bc they used to sell them allll the time at betsey johnson for completely overpriced prices.
at least the sunglasses and the print of the dress is rad. but the shoes?!! please, i am just not ready for pointy toe black shoe stilettos ever again.

good things always come back

weeks ago, i was cleaning out my closet and found a pair of denim skinny jeans that i rarely wear, bc they are more like denim fucking leggings. not caring if completely messed them up, i decided to shred my jeans as much as i could. think punk-rock dirty slut prostitute.




how to shred? you can either take sandpaper and sand your denim down, or you can take some scissors and "shave" your pants.

a few days ago, i saw this pic of everyone's favorite model-of-the-moment, britains' freshest face, Agnes Deyn.



yay! me and aggie could be friends.
going with the 90s resurgence we're seeing, ripped jeans are back. though for me i consider ripped jeans "classic."

another example of the shred coming back by Pudell. (these are leggings! how the eff do u put them on? my jeans take like ten minutes to put each leg in delicately!!!

the goth in me

i like things dark, i like things scary, i like it mysterious, i like it sexy, i love it goth, i love rock and roll, and truly oh truly i love black. these are a few of my favorite things all wrapped up in one for the Hint Magazine featuring Siouxsie Sioux.







if anyone's taking christmas list ideas for me, i also like boys, cute boys, skinny boys, boys with nice shoes, and boys who like to shop. omg. i like faggots.

im sweatin' and pantin' just lookin' at it!

though i sit in my central a.c. apt during this ferocious heat wave, i find myself sweating, panting, looking at Sandra Backlund's newest collection entitled "In No Time." Backlund is my favorite Project Runway designer (actually, she won Britains' version of the show). Her signature style uses heavy wool collage knitting, creating intricate and masculine designs using feminine fabrics.

i'd be the belle of the ball if i could have one of her designs.

Qui Hao - Shanghai designer

Asia is booming with fashion designers and models, slowly yet surely creeping their way into the western fashion world. the new Shanghai is an epicenter for the avante-garde.
Qui Hao is one of Shanghai's most influential conceptually driven designers. His avante-garde work is highly sought after, a notable feat in a country driven by the prestige and status of international brands. (like LV, duh.) Trained at Central St. Martins in London (Christopher Kane is one of their current graduate darlings), his signature style consists of deconstructed fashion, held together by innovative fabrics.

tranny mess

when the hell did tranny mess become so popular? i blame ( thank?) d-listed. i am though, intrigued with the concept of skinny little gays dressing up as serious fashionistas.
Alas, I must admit that i do love the tranny mess.
