Posthumous appreciation

Check out the detail on this Alexander McQueen jacket.
Amazing. Someone physically sat there and made this.





P.s Blogs with all photos and not many words of substance really bother me but for me, this picture speaks for itself and I wanted y'all to appreciate it too. kay?

Alexander Mcqueen - I must say that I prefer his s/s2010 rtw collection - would punch a granny for one of those dresses, but this dress is definitely my fave from the fall collection. So so beautiful. Call me a sinner, but I didn't really like much else, but this one tickled my fancy just fine. Heart you Lee.

Alexander McQueen Gone.

R.I.P


Found dead in his London home this morning.

Kelis would wear them

but not to the supermarket...

In reality?

Would people actually buy and wear these in real life? Like real people. Not Lady Gaga. Not Daphne Guinness. "Real people". Like you and me. Where would we wear these if not in a music video. To the supermarket? Haha, I'm so funny. But really, if you could get your paws on these (or a cheaper version *cough Wild Pair cough*) would you do it? I don't think I would. They're just too 'funny' for me. Opening Ceremony buckle boots, yes. Louis Vuitton tribal heels, yes. YSL cage heels, yes again. But these little puppies, that would be a big fat non from me. Not that I think they are too weird to exist. I think they are pretty awesome to be honest, the pinky ones in particular tickle my fancy. But not as shoes. Maybe as something I'd put on a plinth and admire from afar. Or a flower pot. Now that'd be cool.

I've been online shopping

I go on net-a-porter put things in my bag and stare at it for ages before closing the window down. Yes it's sad. Yes it's also slightly fulfilling. Here are some things I 'bought' today in my faux-luxury-online-shopping life.
