This is Fashion

i came across this image the other day at work while doing research and despite all the absurd and questionable editorial fashion i expose myself to on a daily basis, this image in particular just really made me giggle. there's SO much stuff out there in the world of fashion that can give rise to an eyebrow or two but this outfit, in all it's pared down sheer simplicity (pun intended), i found to be magnificently absurd. in case you haven't realized it yet, the above is a shirt that evokes a particular form of the female figure which is fancy talk for makes men look like they have titties. you know those shirts you can by on the boardwalk of any shore town, usa with the drawing of the bikini clad lady torso and when you put it on, your head becomes the head for the torso and it looks like you're a scantily clad cartoon bikini lady?? yeah, there's really no difference between that and the above EXCEPT for the notable exception that booby tee up there probably costs $827 more than the $4.99 you'd drop for cartoon bikini lady (but hey, at least both forms of shop keeper would most likely be equally as surly towards you, so there's that...). i dove a little deeper into the "trend" that homeboy up there exemplifies and found the following images that i figured i should also share. enjoy the carnival or fine art or whatever they call it.

WANT!

ok, i get that this all leather 35th anniversary outback vest from penfield is like $354,987,628 but HOLY SHIT hott

WANT!

these we-wood watches

LOVE

this girl. from the sartorialist

WANT!

today marks the start of another new category of posts. WANT! posts will be things that i find that i must own or else i will be unhappy and hollow inside. now i know it's kinda trashy to do this but i'm starting off with product that's an adi/burton collab. judge all you want but FUCK i want to own that shirt jacket with those vulc boots. be warned b/c if you live near the BTV burton flagship store, you might be getting a call from me in the near future... check out the rest of the collection over at hypebeast here.

Epic Pants

as long as we're on the subject of epic apparel prints, here's a pair of vintage moschino pants covered in life sized cd's. these, unfortunately, get the label of "awesome" for all the wrong reasons.

Love Love LOVE!!!!

this is a spinoff post of the previous "japan style" post. 100% credit goes to katie becker for the pics. apparently, these kids were auditioning for something hence their PHENOMENAL outfits. this is like, one of my most favoritest "LOVE" posts thus far!!! it's like they all called eachother up and made sure to wear the same color palette too. jump to see what i'm talking about and check out the girl at the end (my personal fave)!!

Japan Style: Summer 2010

ok, some i'm not the sartorialist, nor am i ever going to try/pretend to be. reason being: i suck at taking "people on the street" pics b/c i'm either A) too late in getting my camera out in time or B) too awkward to walk up to someone and just ask to take his/her pic. sooooo, i end up coming away with a bunch of amateur candid street shots. however, this won't stop me from sharing :) hit the jump for a small sampling of who i came across.*

*the picture that headlines this post was not actually a person, but a mannequin outside one of the boutiques in harajuku. sorry for the potential confusion.

Back from Memorial Day

hi kids. wasn't very vigilant about posting anything over the holiday weekend so here's some funnies to fill the gaping void that i'm sure was left lingering in your soul.

here's a couple of cool tshirt designs from threadless.com. the first one's kinda funny, the second is just cool.
