Red Red Lips!


First came the skirts and now its the red lips and nails, what would Marc Jacobs' next step embracing femininity be? Is he musing "Oh, how I wish I had some red wine to go with my cosmetic flight of fancy?"

More importantly, is this photo worth $80 and if you decide to buy these cosmetics from Nars what is Marc Jacobs influence in your decision ?

To Shop or Not, a lesson from the Fashion God!


If the fashion folks are to be believed, the biggest dilemma assailing mankind today seems to be the question of "whether to shop or not"!From a time when wearing the same clothes more than once used to be deemed as the biggest fashion faux pas anyone living on the planet could commit, to seeing Marc Jacobs attending two events back to back (namely the screening of Inglourious Basterds and the September Issue) in practically the same outfit, excepting his shoes, only reflects the reality of the situation we are in! If a fashion God could repeat his clothes I guess we all need to keep the plastic where it belongs (in the wallet) and start "shopping" our closets instead! Hope Anna isn't listening, don't want to throw a damp towel on her Fashion's Night Out plans, that is supposed to encourage shopping!

Why Karl wears the suit and Marc the skirt!


The very people who bring variety into the closets of millions choose to be frugal in their own dressing choices.Why so?Is it because its economical(pun intended), they are doing clothes 24*7 that the very thought of putting one on themselves gives them a great repulsion or is it because the fashion gods cannot afford to commit a fashion faux pas, that they have stuck to extremely narrow choices of dressing?Despite a fertile imagination churning implausible reasons, the ultimate knock off might be a rather boring and contrived one, much like their dressing.

So it goes like this.Its not everyday that the gods descend from their thrones to offer a glimpse of their superior self to the mere mortals!And when that rare occasion happens, the mortals have to recognise their gods in a fleeting second, before the gods disappear.How do the mortals do that? Because the gods are identifiable by their unique style which no mortal would dare to copy(imagine yourself walking on the beach in a suit or going to the movies in a skirt) !

Maybe this phenomenon can be called as "image management"! Just the way one cannot think of Chanel without the interlocking Cs, so cannot one separate Karl from his suit!Quick recall factor after all matters, otherwise Karl would never be snapped walking in Saint Tropez, and even if he were, there would always linger in the minds of the mortals a nagging doubt whether it was their God or some impostor! And ya as for Marc, poor Marc he cannot do the suit(you know why) and so he decided to wear the skirt or should I be polite and say kilt?

If anyone knows a better reason, please do keep me informed!

Marc Jacob says...


“I like this ritual of being in the bathroom, using skincare products…choosing what skirt to wear.”

And we all thought that only girls are fussy dressers!!

The Missing Blue

We have seen the pink, the green and the orange, wonder when and where the blue sighting would happen. Well I'm referring to the Stephen Sprouse tights that Marc Jacobs cannot live without, at least until they sell a significant number.And did you notice the tacit agreement between Marc and his boyfriend, when Marc wears orange, his partner wears green and vice verse!! Well, love is blind I know but color coordinated ?? Well that Marc has sure taught me!!

Spring 2009 Ready-To-Wear - Louis Vuitton



Just when you had thought that bags in two avatars namely monogrammed and embossed were all there was to Louis Vuitton and for fresh quirky fashion one had to look elsewhere, Marc Jacobs(the designer of the collection) springs a surprise that is so very welcome.This collection had all the usual Vuitton fare, only they were morphed into African tribal art and the result was pleasant beyond description.Though the clothes offered an array of options from wide leg pants to short skirts, the collection belonged to the accessories crazy, what with a zillion options of bangles, necklaces, shoes and bags screaming tribal art!!!The shoes were noteworthy, decorated with thin strips of python, feathers and colorful beads.Very tribal and very dreamy.The best of Louis Vuitton on display.

Save your pennies for spring, for Louis Vuitton's spring accessories are too good to miss!!
