The Godfathers

You know he luddah Goyard and Jonathan Adler. Lookin' gleeful, reading the Sartorialist's book. Monogrammed and all that. You know she had too much going on to go to Barney's for the book signing. Too busy and all that.

The gold, classic. The silver, that's Mr. Lagerfeld.

Be afraid to commit a fallacy of fashion this fall. The colonel of couture is locked and loaded.

Embellished and Earnest(sewn)

She can't help herself. She is powerless to the androgynous prowess a little hardware can add to her current wardrobe. I may regret this next season, as it is sure to be tailored to perfection, society rules. For now, everything I own is adorned and adored. Come spring, I may rue the day I distressed and embellished everything I own, but now I'm a rebel with only one cause. I can be Jackie O. anytime, right now it's all about Karen O.

Lusty Leather Legs

Dear Latex Leg Lovers,

They said you were a phase, but I knew I would revel in your relevance once again. Bryant Park, Fall 09 loves you and so do I. Don't they say everything old is new again?

xoxo,

loved you before you were luxe

Cobblestone Conundrum, strut with caution

Obviously, she wears these tonight.

Dat girl, the one you see, always daring widda good shoe.

Plain Tee, "edgy-Wang-esque-quotient added to ensemble immediately.

Next, her leather legging. To some these are a very forward movement, but to her, brunch wear. For the lazy Sunday, yes? A little Rodarte with her mimosas. Don't mind if I do.

Now, you see, it has been a summer full of Magnolia and Pastis.

The time is now to dust off her liquid pants, ie. the ONLY thing to satisfy these new shoes, and there is a quandary. The legs, they must be sticks.

Fashion week always instills in me a need for an anorexorcism.

You are a model Asian

Whilst perusing through my photos and yearning for fun superfluous activities of years past, it dawned on me. There is simply not enough Asian influence in mainstream fashion! Outrage! Anna, do your worst! Even on a simple visit to acquire Asian delights (pho ga, no onion, extra beansprout, thanks and do not forget my spring rolls) we see what could be such an influential relevance to mainstream American fashion. Dresses over pants, anyone? I'm not the only one who watched "My So-Called Life." God, I'm so glad Docs are back. And Catalano never went out of style :)

Me, I'm a creator

After coming to the realization that I have far too much free time, I digress. Then, I reach for my studs, spikes, autre accoutrements. Oh, luxury, thy name is hardware.

I gaze at my Veronica Slouch Boot by Frye (circa last fall, equestrian, duh.) She thinks, I'm poor, yet too discerning to wear this irrelevant boot come fall2009. The look is punk, not polo.

She cuts off 12 inches of gorgeously distresses cognac leather with fabric scissors. Wince. Waterproofs the virgin, exposed edge with a clear coat of Essie. She chooses her hardware and her Veronica's have transcended all that is obsolete . Now, where is my broad shouldered blazer and harem pant...
