Controversial Cartoons

Recently there has been a lot of talk surrounding the Simpsons's most recent couch gag which was done by none other then British street artist Banksy!

I personally like the way it "pushes the edge of the envelope", but watch above and decide for yourself

spring by summer fall

Because my massive amounts of school work have lead to very little free time, I am quite late in blogging my fall fashion week favourites, but nonetheless, here is a list of my most-liked pieces and collections (in ascending order)

Miu Miu: I would be lying if I told you this collection was my favourite...that being said I am quite in love with the dress shown at middle and the dress at right which at first seems like a simple evening dress, but has those wonderful top details! Also, look at those shoes!!!

Rodarte: While I think they could do with less browns, the much-talked-about shoes are really quite spectacular, the lacey blouses are so wonderful, the blues are lovely, and the gladiator style is, well...interesting?

House of Holland: I hadn't originally planned to post, or even speculated, about this collection, but it caught my eye and I was quite struck by the uniqueness and overall beauty! I particularly love the dress shown at right; that papery material, cut, and what a colour!

Proenza Schouler: My probably overly high expectations lead to initial disappointment with this collection...but I have grown to love several of the pieces (particularly those above) and I am glad they brought back the abstract prints from last season.

Band of Outsiders: This collection actually far exceeded my expectations...I particularly like the sunglasses and the sweaters (incidentally my two favourite things!) and, as always, I am impressed by the "wear-ability"

Christopher Kane (resort): My favourite collection of the season! I am totally in love with the half nebula, half nuclear holocaust print! And who could resist those furry shoes?
