A new, distressing trend...and some really cool ones!


Dear Gentle Reader, looking to the past few posts, I have noticed a horrifically negative slant. So, this time, I am going to start with something a bit negative and polish it off with something quite lovely.

First off, sources (all of the fashion blogs) say that some "people" have been trying to bring "drop crotch" pants into style. Sorry, but no. *thwaps* No, and especially NOT on the red carpet! This icky example is from Alexander Wang for 425 dollars...HA! All right, we all hate it when pants ride up, but this is madness!

Now, to add some happy thoughts, if you really have unusual and retro-tastic tastes (such as mine) ; I recommend these sites: www.pyramidcollection.com and pinupcgirlclothing.com

Here are some images to tantalize you all!
This first one is from The Pyramid Collection for about $99.95, it is called the "Midnight Garden Dress":
*salivates* Practical? Not at all! Lovely? You bet!

Now, for more practical (but equally fabulous) apparell-
This number is from Pin Up Girl Clothing, and it is crazy-flattering curvy women-folk:

It is called the "The Vintage Inspired Sailor Swing Dress in Navy with White Trim by Pinup Couture".
Wow.
