SUGAFOOT N PATRICE

ok so the title has more to do with bad girls club than the following text, but, i have a point to make. Now you know, my loves, my love for jcrew. it's all american! fairly well made! they have MADEWELL (easily best basics store for those who are fed up with american apparel's strangle hold over tee shirts and cardigans and not-withstanding poor quality control in terms of sizing) but. srsly jcrew. $2K for leather luggage? that is catalog/internet only? i'm sure people will buy it, but people will buy fucking anything. ANYTHING (pls see: hello kitty tombstone / vibrator) that is as nonsense as buying a wedding dress online. i could easily blow that cash on the following equally nonsense purchases:

omgomgomomgmomg best news of the year

ACNE IS COMING/IN THE US!!!!! Acne studio opens in NYC soonish and i am crying and vomiting from despair that i cannot get there and that i am so fucking excited to have what is easily my favorite brand closer to me! The studio will sell mens and womens clothes and accessories and soon! furniture and small industrial goods,a childrens line, and men's and women's underwear. now i can really spiral into crippling debt. whatever ill eat beanie weenies and drink schlitz if that allows me to have everything they offer ever.

TGI-never

I've been ruminating on whether I like being bored to death or overwhelmingly busy and riddled with anxiety. Truthfully, I like neither, but if I had to choose it would be a happy medium of bein (and gettin!) busy and maxin and relaxin. Waking-up, throwing some layers on that smell clean enough, braving the day, then going to bed exhausted can be as satisfying as waking up, rolling over, and watching some jolly, visually interchangeable women cook couscous, marion berry cobbler, and chicken with forty cloves while never leaving the comfort of your underwear/bed/living room floor. I live fast 'n die young...or something. Really, I am just grasping for some sentences so I could post these images from winter07 acne. Also, last nights proj runway, wtf are you kidding me? Since when do people with careers or careers in failure want to be on a reality show that has been proven to further ruin lives? I guess Heidi Klum said it best when asked what's in store for this season; "same shit. different people". word. guten-tag girl.

pretty leather

a growing trend in the norse regions is the application of pretty leather. red leather skirts paired with white button ups whose peter pan collars are buttoned demurely all the way up. capped off with a loosely draped skirt-hem-length cardigan, ankle socks, and flat shoes. juxtaposing what could and should be tried and true street walker pieces against strongly young and chaste garments makes for an outfit mind fuck akin to an adult lolita; all grown up and legal but still inherently bad to the bone. acne will show you whats up:

acne f/w 07

Acne men's and women's fall/winter is up. I prefer the men's collection to the women's (for right now; i am liable to change my mind any second) and over all feel like APC F/W07 is more wearable. Breakdown: Acne Men's 25% Acne Women's 5% APC Men's 25% APC Women's 45%
100% Euro-love

get ye to barney's co-op!

Sorry for the lapse in posts; I've been travelling. However, while on my adventures I confirmed that Barney's Co-Op end-of-season sale is ridiculous awesome. The online prices are good, don't get me wrong, but the stores have such a better selection and are offering an extra 30% off right now. I was seriously tempted by these cloud wash Earnest sewn jeans (mine were in lavender), but no matter how cheap they were would not make them fit into my already overloaded dresser. Stock up on MJ shoes for 70$! 70$! Along with KA7 sweaters for under 60$ and ACNE jeans for 65$(!) which will transition seamlessly into fall.
