And I am back!
Sorry for being gone, if anyone is still reading. I had to deal with real life but now I am back and fashion hasn’t gotten any better. Take this dress for example. Normally leaves are a rather suggestive motif. Just think of Adam and Eve hiding their shame with fig leaves. Rachel Pally takes the leaf and puts it all over a muumuu.

Twisted gunmetal necklace by Doo.ri, $490.00 at Saks.
This looks like when my ipod falls out of its pocket in my purse and the cord gets tangled at the bottom with my keychains and random scraps.
On a positive note, I think this necklace takes some of the same ideas but makes something appealing out of them.
Tropical birds tote by Marc Jacobs, $1,450.00 at Saks.
Oh Marc Marc Marc. First of all, why the nylon tote? Aren’t you stepping on Miuccia’s toes by selling ugly nylon bags? Secondly, the title of the bag tells me that is supposed to be a bird. It looks like an amorphous blob to me. Maybe if I cock my head to the right and close my left eye and squint… Nope, still a blob. I clicked the zoom feature and only after seeing it blown up large do I vaguely see a bird.
The real question is, why did no one in the Marc Jacobs team notice that this doesn’t look like a bird? Oh wait, who am I kidding, this is the label that put a bag with a swastika on it into production before realizing their error.
