things that will never really work out in real life vol 2.

Amazing but inappropriate hats coming out of NYFW. Weird that this series is turning more into a hat series than anything else.

What the fuck is going on with The Row over the top raccoon hats? A lot of awesome stuff that's what! OH MY GOD! Give me this had and I'd be the happiest camper out - literally, I would take this camping, very warm and good for camouflage.


Another hat that is awesome, but ridiculous for real life are the Karen Walker black fisherman/Steve Zissou skull-cap-beanies. Who would really look good in these except for Bill Murray, the original Jacques Cousteau and fat fish mongers? Not even these skinny bitches look good in them, imagine a normal sized bitch with a rather round head (me). Yeah...nah.


Sigh, hats how you continue to allude me.

This hat. Yeah it's cool and the 12-year-old model looks like she's having a good time wearing it in the ASOS studio and yes I really want it. But here's the question, when and where? Really?

Westerns are totally awesome!!!

So let's discuss one of my favorite films of all time, The Good, The Bad and The Ugly. Is it just me or is this film timeless or what?! Am I right? I know I'm right. Sometimes when I sit down and watch old 'classic' films I enjoy them yes, but mostly based on their importance in the history of things. I can put the dated production and acting into context, but it still lingers in my mind throughout the whole film. Try watching Casablanca for example. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed it, but I didn't necessarily ease through it. The Good, The Bad and The Ugly, on the other hand, draws me in so much every time that I don't even notice its 'date'. I like the intense acting and the generic Western traditions. Basically, in my eyes, it's freaking flawless! If anything it's one hell of a visual treat; the setting, the cinematography and the costume (oh the costume!) make an A+ combination. But, maybe I'm just partial to barren desert landscapes and a good Stetson.






Oh, and it does help that Clint Eastwood was a total dish. Swoon!

Blogging for blogging's sake

So June is considerably low in the blog numbers here, we know, we know! Perhaps it corresponds to our slow internet a.t.m. Or perhaps we are just lazy. You will never know the truth.

P.S. Lolita has a totally awesome name, winter appropriate bikini AND hat. What a cow.

wide brimmed hats

are generally not the most fantastic idea. the wider the brim does not equal the better the hat. unless you are wearing a sombrero in a completely serious and non-ironic manner - again in the sombrero case, like a non-mexican wide brimmed hat, ironic does not equal better.
