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.

slowly chipping away

Karen Walker's North is slowly chipping away at me. I especially like this skirt.

It can't just be me...

...who can only see pyjamas here. Right? I know I seem like a massive Karen Walker hater, but I'm not. I'm a massive hater behind the Karen Walker buying mentality that seems to go on here [insert annoying if not slightly hypocritical rant on consumerism, branding, insecurities and moral emptiness here]. But really, pyjamas! This is not a happening thing. Even if you dissected the outfit, I still think the individual items will look like one half of a pyjama set. A stylish one yes, but a pyjama set no less...

On a slightly less hater note, I did weirdly love this outfit though. The 50s trophy housewife in me likes this combo a lot. Strange, but true.

K-Dub

Ok, so let's skip the "Karen Walker you goddess for bringing Topshop to The Department Store in April, OH MA GOH I'M GONNA DIE" hoo-ha shall we and instead talk about how I'm generally weirded out by K-Dub stuff in everyday life. And before we begin, this ain't no hate (Karen Walker you goddess for bringing Topshop to The Department Store in April, OH MA GOH I'M GONNA DIE) and I want this t-shirt from the Runaway line.


But you see, the thing is, this is probably the first ever item of Karen Walker clothing I've really wanted. And it's a t-shirt.

So pretty much, the deal with me is that I've just never warmed to much of the Karen Walker clothes over the past years. I like the jewelry a lot more and don't have this issue with them. I like a few coats every season, like these little babies for example.



But like everything in the land of Karen Walker (except this possibly rather affordable t-shirt) the coats are always out of my financial reach so I never bother even going in there to look for them. My 'problem' with Karen Walker isn't the price. If I like something enough I'd charge it to my credit card and not go out for a while slash just stare at it in vain online until I die of boredom. It just never happens with KW stuff. Why? I just look at it all and while I'm not repulsed, I'm just a bit 'meh-ed' (yes kill me now, I know I 'blaspheme'). It's just all a bit 'boxy' or something. Just a bit too 'nautical'/'wood cabin in upstate New York' or something. I'm not hating on the 'geek-chic' shoe and sock combo (I am a fan and practicing individual of that look). It all just doesn't sit right with me.

For example I kinda like this dress.


It's cute. It's frilly. It's in my second favorite colour, navy blue. But I still wouldn't really go there.

If I was a sexy sectary or librarian I'd maybe wear this to work.


But that's not what I do, is it. I think the thing with Karen Walker and me is that I don't feel like I have anywhere appropriate to wear this stuff. Which is weird because I didn't think twice about buying a tight velvet dress. I feel like when I put on her clothes that I AM the dress. The things I'd try on aren't pants (I'm not mature enough to wear 'pants' as opposed to jeans) or stripped tops (I get mine from H&M and Glassons thank you very much) are such 'clothes' they just make me wrinkle my nose a little bit - except that t-shirt, I think I'm gonna get that. Is there something wrong with me that I don't kowtow to the temple of KW? Am I ill? Please still be my friend.

p.s. Karen Walker ring fund update, I think I want this one more now. Not so "Oh my god I forgot to take it off when I did the dishes" and possibly more realistic for my little money jar.

I'm being very serious here guys

Phu-lease get into my life Karen Walker lapiz and diamond ring. This is getting more serious than the whole Chloe Sevigny Opening Ceremony boot fiasco. And we all (mostly a certain live-in co-writer) know what crazy proportions that almost got to. Sigh.


It just hit me! Just as I put that little pic up there. Yup that one right there. I'm gonna do this! I'm going to be (for once in my life) sensible with my money, which yes might at first seem like buying a very expensive ring would hinder that, but hear me out. I'm gonna save! Seriously save! I'm going to run off now and find a jar I can put money into. Then when I have enough I'm not going to deposit the money back into my account. I'm going to march down to Karen Walker with my jar of pennies (and notes, I am a semi-adult here) and pay CASH!

Watch this space y'all.

Can't stop looking at these

I know polaroids are like, sooo indie or whatever, but I actually really REALLY like these photos regardless. Maybe it helps. I don't know, but I really like these. I particularly like the crab one, as I like the Karen Walker Crab necklaces, and also the creepy kind of psychedelic image of the three guys..
Anyway this guy is called Mikael Kennedy,apparently he took a trip around the states and came out with over 300 polaroids. You can see why I posted so many, because it was so hard to choose from!
