I’m Over It: The Raccoonier Eye

Totally the hat my grandpa wore to his POW meetings

Silly girl, rock/grunge wannabes don't smile.

You better know when to fold'em.

Something about having too much eyeshadow and not enough death metal on your iPod always manages to throw me off. A look that’s being raised from the dead in beauty is literally a look that makes you look like you just walked off the set of Thriller. The black-eyed, overly mascaraed trend is one which needs to rest in peace. No woman looks good like this, with the exception of true grungers/rocker types, but it’s only made so much worse in the collection of Ashish cause the face doesn’t seem to match the collection, which looks like a mix of Mary-Kate meets Grannies Bridge club in Florida. Of course, when we saw a similar attempt at Alexander Wang’s last season, which was a truly rock-derivative collection, it was all the rage, but here the Raccoon is all the wrong you need to avoid.

On the other side of the coin, some of you may argue that raccoons are cute little creatures with a sense of mischief that is fun to imitate through eye shadow. Let me warn you the image on the next page may shock you and completely change your ideas of raccoons.
