Maybe all black blankets aren’t stylish, but I think Mary-Kate and her boyfriend look pretty good.  I love her buckled boots..and is it just me, or is that a Birkin?

I think LL should keep better track of her shit. Last May her home was broken into and things were stolen, a month or so ago her Birkin bag was stolen in the airport, and now, her house has been broken into AGAIN (think you would learn to lock the doors), and a bunch of her personal belongings are missing. Police are still investigating, but hey, if you don’t lock up, what do you expect?

FYI DIY: Too Poor For Couture

It’s that time again where big name designers tantalize us with flawless couture, forcing us to the shallows of wishing we were trust fund babies and had the means to rock haute Dior. Despite the fact that the recession has dictated the death of luxury, some of us still dream of flaunting a Birkin Bag and owning real Yves Saint Laurent cage heels. 

I applaud this ballsy individual who decided to carry a “couture” Chanel purse, constructed from a paper bag, a permanent marker and a chain. Although I really dig the sloppily drawn logo, you could get really creative and actually design your own luxury paper bag purse. And if you’re really into it, laminate it for multiple uses! 

I’m not the best sketcher. I can barely paint. My sewing skills aren’t the best. But this DYI, this I can do. This I will do. 

 

Thanks Fashion Copious!

We’re trying to figure out what all the fuss is about, why countless celebrities own hundreds of these ugly bags that you have to be put on a waiting list for, and all we could come up with is a bunch of reasons why you shouldn’t own a Birkin.

1. It’s $9,000-$34,000 (other sources say even more)

2. You’re a huge target for robbers

3. There’s about 2983402834092835 better bags you could buy for cheaper (Valentino Rose Tote, Chanel Chain Length Purse)

4. It’s over-rated, purchased purely as a status symbol, not a style symbol

 

5. You can’t order one online, and what’s the point of shopping if you can’t do it online

 

6. You have to wait two years for it, in which time no one will want one anymore because a) the world will be completely bankrupt and b) after this ten goes up, no one will care about Birkin anymore (hahah)

7. If the recession lasts any longer, people will look at you like you’re an idiot

8. You can never use a coat check again (see 2)

 

 

9. Lets face it, can you even pronounce Hermes?

10. Heidi Montag has one
