LiLo has Peter Pan Legs & Man Feet

Lindsay Lohan huge sneakers

These pants go way far too beyond skinny jeans. I barely recognize them as being denim (don’t they kind of resemble a blue heather fleece?) And then we get to those sneakers. Lindsay looks like her feet belong on a teenaged boy. That ensemble is an insult to her fantastic patchwork handbag.

By the way, I was out of the fashion game for a while, and now cannot find this bag anywhere after a day’s research - can you name it or the designer?

The Hill’s (and feud’s) Co-Star, Heidi’s Fashion Line

April 14, 2008 by Designer Ella

Celebutante see, celebutante do. Isn’t that the way it always is? And The Hill’s not being true fiction makes its biggest stars, Lauren Conrad and Heidi Montag both just celebutantes (who “worked” for it).

Months after Lauren’s handbag line came out with Linea Pelle, Montag’s fashion collection has just debuted with Anchor Blue, an equally obscure house to this quarter-aged fart.

If you’re wondering whether Heidi has the chops to design clothing. I’m going to take her own quote to say, “No”.

“I love zebra print!” she said. “I’m obsessed with it!”

And it’s all over her collection. Yayyy, she follows one trend. I love zebra print myself right now. Oh but didn’t that start at least back in the Fall? Like on this handbag from Dooney & Bourke (actually a 2008 edition, but still).

What more in the advancement of design could we expect from a girl who named her line Heidiwood, with the tagline, “Welcome to La La Land!“? Mmmmmmmmm, those Las are supposed to stand for L and A, but okay… We know you live there, anyway, Heidi!

Candy Coated Shoes are BACK!

April 14, 2008 by Designer Ella

I’m not a trend follower of late, but the announcement of this one excited me for a very important reason. Seeing the hot, neon, sparkly, etc. pumps on the show What Not to Wear started my love for shoes, which brought on this blog, which introduced me to handbags, and ultimately that led to my handbag line I’m finally ready to start!

But back to the blog for now, and well the shoes..

Reports say bright shoes are in for Spring. Fun! Cute, and definite excitement in your steps.

I’d like to go over some “hot” (pun intended, as per usual) choices in different categories …

First, fashionista in different price points:

Hammer Pants - the grown up view

April 12, 2008 by Designer Ella

As a young girl, when I saw Hammer Pants, they appeared to me to be nothing more than ultra silly pajama pants.

Now I’m all adult, thank you, and you know what I see in this 2008 version? Inhumanly, mutantly large penis pants. I mean the wearer’s member mustn’t be able to fit into your regular pair of jeans or trousers.

Wait - are these for women?

Man, that is so hot. I love a loose, slouchy crotch on a woman. Who wouldn’t want a piece of that?

Gwyneth Paltrow looking sickly unfab

April 11, 2008 by Designer Ella

I don’t always enjoy cattiness toward the undeserving, unlike the cattiness that was pleaded for in my last post. But Gwenyth’s ensemble here is so heinous of the subtle *But-I’m-wearing-all-designer* disgusting way that I find it amusing as one of the first posts to bring me to start upon the new life of Kiss Me, Stace. It’s no new thing to rag on celeb unfab, and I haven’t changed my mind about its propriety, yet I now want to write freely for a while to discover every little aspect of what Kiss Me, Stace will evolve into!

Besides, just look!

Let’s start at the very tippy-toe bottom (and right above this text). Those shoes. They say “Givenchy gladiator pumps”, I say “orthopedics meet torture.” She looks like she has ankle braces atop strappy sandals. (Warning: this could happen to YOU, stiletto freaks.)

Then the dress, some think it’s a fine frock, a vintage YSL. (I usually love them, but WHAT? Was this before their aesthetic actualization?) I see it as an oversized housecoat, or better yet, a fanschay yet still oversized medical gown — to fit a theme. Please tell me Gwynny is nursing a new oddly-named baby rght now, ‘cos you know I don’t follow celebrity gossip too much to know myself.

Then there are those long, poofy sleeves, and some unfortunate effects coming from poor posture, an uneven hem and a hanging beltamajig. This vintage dress seems to be more *all I could find in a consignment shop* than a gift from the designer themselves. Sad. sad.

Someone get Ms. Paltrow a dose of style-sanity, STAT!

Mel B. - A genious prankster or moronic business woman?

April 11, 2008 by Designer Ella

Another Spice Girl is getting into the clothing business, or so I hear. When I read the postings about Mel B’s own new fashion line, I quickly checked the dates on each article - hoping for an April 1st on at least the original.

Key laughable and ridiculous points about Scary Spice’s self-influenced venture: the clothing shapes and styles have no cohesion, originality or tie to current fashions, but they do have animal prints. And black. Every piece is flecked or flocked with cheetah or leopard, and somehow that makes this a marketable line? Never have I seen such a lack of work involved in a celebrity-backed business. I think it’ll at least be somewhat more interesting to see what big biz types create for the name of Britney Spears.

The worst and most humorous aspect is the brand’s name. There’s no preparing you, so I’ll just say it.

Catty Couture.

I think even Paris Hilton can do better than that. I mean, the take a word, add couture thing never had merit. Add in the naming to the unfortunateness of the style, and come on–how can this be anything but a cruel joke?
