I’ve been really into the grungy, slouchy tees lately, and while this Tsumori Chisato shirt isn’t priced for the grunge budget (a painful $420), it certainly fits that aesthetic I’m going for. Completely loving the embroidered oval designs and hey, nude is in, so the color is spot on!

Don’t make any sudden movements, there is something gnarly growing out the side of your head. Either Tsumori Chisato’s collection was so bad that he tried to mask it with awful hair designs or he wanted to give models with enormous brain tumors one last chance to model. Either way, this isn’t necess-hairy (Rebecca made me do it). 

Thanks for the photos Hollywood Rag!

Candace Bushnell, the writer who brought us SATC, has defended the use of designer labels in her work – insisting that they play an integral role in women’s identities.

“I don’t think fashion is part of my work for the sake of it, fashion for many women is a weapon. It’s comparable to men’s suits. There’s the salesman in the shiny suit and then certainly in New York, successful men wear hand-tailored Italian suits. So, as you get older, your clothes express your status as opposed to, ‘I found the right handbag, this is my weapon, get back’. Money and power go together. We as women don’t like to acknowledge that, but it’s true, so when you have money, the power paradigm with men shifts.”

Thanks Vogue UK.
