Did you see me in Intake?

I answered the superhero question of the week. One of my favorite "classy" party outfits back in the 90's was black vinyl pants and a big black cashmere sweater. I thought it looked rich and edgy and I wore it alot until I ripped out the crotch throwing up in someone's closet. Like I said, classy

A little gross

I had to wear this big dopey fruit hat to the pond because I have a big zit right where my sunglasses hit my nose. I can't get a cortisone shot until tomorrow pm but that will be too late as I am going to pick this thing within an inch of it's life tonight. It is SO bugging me

Low at Lowes

Oh goody, large appliance shopping. Frankley, I can think of better things to spend $2000 on, like this Bottega Veneta coat. Do people spend much time in their laundry rooms? Why the Decorator Colors? Who wants a damn red washer? Slate blue and brown is so 2003 but there was a soothing deep navy which was OK but the weird seafoam teal was not. My Target Go banded leg shorts are nifty but they do make my butt look big, which I am OK with, today, anyway. How about that Stepford hair?

Outfit of the day

Actually went to the ICM to see the comic thing and there was also a cartoon thing, which you would think would be the same, but is not. This is the same outfit I wore to the Frankey's opening that did not get much play, so I trotted it out again. Believe me, I was the only mother dressed like this at the Children's Museum. Today, anyway. The pencil skirt is linen, which is usually avoided because I do not iron but it actually wrinkled symmetrically during my nap which made it a little more interesting. No, I did not take it off to nap as it is so tight, I cannot remove it without ripping it a little. Once it is on, it is ON FOR THE DAY

I mean, it's almost August

Is it too late to do the summer switch? I am skipping the living room seasonal change, I just don't have the energy for the Indyfashbash vs slipcover wrestling match this year. I finally did the purse flip after giving up on finding a new one to buy. Just boring, everything. I mean, I am still hot for the YSL Muse in nude but right now I have better things to spend $1500 on, you dig? So I pulled out my 2006 Vuitton Mirrore Speedy. I have to admit when this shiny stuff first came out I just thought it was gross, especially the gold one. But it has grown on me, seems light and fresh for summer. My Stam bag looks pretty disgruntled about it, though

AVANT

Maybe I'm over 20 years of mall fashion, but I have been really attracted to avant garde kind of stuff lately. You know, things like 3 sleeve sweaters and cloven toe boots. I was really inspired by the IMA's Breaking the Mode show and tried to get some of said Martin Margiela shos on ebay for a whole week before I realized how big they would make my feet look. Some of it is just silly, like the Ann Demeulemeester's "no sleeve top" for $600, in a prison uniform color no less. I do love this Alexander McQueen fuzzy leather dress, a steal at $737.40, but the problem with buying online and weird cut clothing is the inability to try one combined with the no return policy and I just can't go there since I am a huge returner about 75% of what I buy (Unworn! I swear!)If you would like a $600 piece of fabric you can get this stuff at www.aloharag.com and sometimes Frankeys in Nora has these brands, too

sweet tweet

I found this tres adore skirt today at a yard sale. Could it be any cuter?! I can't decide what I like best: the pink dot belt or the sweet script "birdie" Awwwwww. Sadly, it is too small so I have to put it in the store, but I am totally ripping off this design and making one for me
