A less-than-fond farewell to the duds of the decade

January 2nd, 2010

Remember when belly-baring pop princesses had us squeezing into clothes that were too tight and too short? Well as we say goodbye to 2009, muffin-tops should be the first of the decade’s dubious fashion fads to go.

Next up is the hot-pink Juicy Couture velour sweatsuit, an outfi t that may or may not have been made worse by Ugg boots, gigantic sunglasses, and a little chihuahua tucked into an oversized purse.

Either way, let’s just pretend Paris Hilton never happened.

Then we’ve got almost anything by Christian Audigier, the man who brought us Von Dutch trucker hats and Ed Hardy T-shirts during a particularly slovenly era mid-decade when people paid extra for ripped jeans, often several sizes too big. See ya later, sagging pants.

Also going to a better place? Flower child boho chic, Avril Lavigne tank tops and ties, clunky Crocs, and prep school headbands that even Gossip Girl’s Blair Waldorf is tiring of.

Finally, we have last year’s gladiator sandals, thick-rimmed glasses, and boyfriend-cut everything. Will they make it through 2010? We’ll have to wait and see.

Until then, take a blast through the past 10 years of fashion in today’s Look.

Jersey Shore Crew Pretends to Act Classy

January 1st, 2010

Ed Hardy t-shirts, diamond earrings and too much hair products have become the signature look of Jon Gosselin the hit MTV reality show Jersey Shore.

“My personal style is fresh to death,” says Paul “DJ Pauly D” Delvecchio. “You know the produce section, like where the food is fresh? That’s my style.”

That’s one of the lamest Jersey Shore quotes we’ve ever heard, and it didn’t even take place on the show. Hey, at least the tools are being themselves.

Last week, celebrity gossip magazine Life & Style embared on the difficult task of giving these up-and-coming reality stars a newer, classier image …

The gang was invited to ditch the shore and step onto the red carpet at one of NYC’s most exclusive clubs, Greenhouse, with its dress-your-best policy.

There, they modeled some iconic Hollywood looks of recent years and they pulled it off like the pros – including Kim Kardashian – they were emulating.

“I like to walk into the room and have everyone notice that I’m wearing ugg cardy boots,” says Nicole Polizzi, also known as the overly tanned and ridiculous Snooki.

That’s what always happens, Snooks. But not for the reason you think.

Christian Audigier Leases House That Michael Jackson Died In

September 9th, 2009

Christian Audigier knows how to stay in the spotlight.  If you remember, he’s the Ed Hardy clothing designer that aligned himself with Jon Gosselin a few months ago.  I don’t know what happened to their planned children’s clothing line, but Audigier has a new project awaiting him now.

Micheal jackson's house

Do you recall that huge Holmby Hills mansion that Michael Jackson was renting at the time of his death?  It was a strangling $100,000 a month lease and Christian will be the next tenant with the privilege of writing that monthly check.  He moves in when Michael’s lease ends on December 15th.

At this time, he says the home will be for his private residence and he has no plans to open it to the public.  This is Christian Audigier we’re talking about, so let’s just wait and see.

The home is owned by Ed Hardy CEO Hubert Guez.  No word if the walls are covered in roses, skulls and douches.

Fashion in Combat: Men's Military Trend 2009-2010

September 3rd, 2009

The military shape always has been a fashion driven trend for the colder months; but for Autumn (Fall)/Winter 2009-2010 designers such as Gareth Pugh, Alexander McQueen, John Galliano and Burberry have modified and transformed the combat uniform from the past to the now. Gareth Pugh, with one of the most unusual menswear collections for A/W 09-10 has brought inspiration from the likes of German officer overcoats from the Second World War to the metal chain mail suits that were worn under suits of armour.

Kristen Stewart's new short hair cut

September 3rd, 2009

A mere matter of days ago we were marvelling at Kristen Stewart’s thigh-high boots and an utterly-sexy hair style. Alas, it seems the latter is gone as the actress has cut-off her normally long locks, and gone for a hair style that I suspect will transpire to be a bob.
