That's Money Honey


Behold: the peak of the eighties revival that has swept runways this season to mixed reviews (my personal view being opposed to said decade).

Stephen Sprouse for Louis Vuitton graffiti leggings. Marc Jacobs chose to partner with Mr. Sprouse a few months ago, again might I add, for a line of graffiti painted bags, shoes, and clothes to those fortunate enough to have access to a LV store. These leggings are pretty much old news and pushed to the back burner of fashionista minds, however SURPRISE! they popped up at the Lady GaGa concert last night!

Not a surprise, actually, considering they were right up her alley. The thing is, during her concert, she proudly preached the following:

"I have no money! Every cent i earn i spend on my show!"

Point in Case:

Stephen Sprouse Leggings worn by each dancer
Total: 4

Stephen Sprouse Leggings cost (circa) $600
Total: $2400

That's allot of money on clothes for the dancers.

She must love having no money. Or perhaps there's something to being an artist feeding off of the energy radiating from the audience. Lady GaGa told the audience again and again that she lives for art and her art can solve anything and all that stuff. She might be onto something.

Or maybe she has allot of money and it was just the interlude to her song Beautiful, Dirty, Rich about blowing all of your money on the club scene. Okay, it was. But the fun fact about the leggings puts GaGa earnings into perspective.

P.S. That is NOT Lady GaGa in the pic, its Nicole Richie posing for BLACKBOOK Magazine. Lets just say she was inspired.

A Gossip Girl Wedding

So in the new Gossip Girl Extended Promo, we are told (but don't believe everything the CW tells you!!!) that there is a wedding in the works. From the looks of it, it seems a bit shotgun considering its in an empty church with normally dressed people; none of the thousand dollar bells and whistles a la Bart Bass. 

However, WHO is getting married is the billion dollar question. 


There's one part of the promo where a wide shot of the church shows the bride and groom standing before a priest, far far away from the camera. If anyone can discern who the mystery pair is, please let me know! its killing me. 

I did figure out that the girl in bed with Chuck is (not Blair) Georgina Sparks. I'm 98% sure of it.

Balmainia



Can we just pause for a moment and admire this phenomenal jacket. 

Crystal embellished. 

The perfect cut. 

Coveted by everyone who's anyone who pays any attention at all. 

So of all places to stumble upon this glorious piece of fashion history, I find it on net-a-porter.com. For sale. Just like any other item. 

Pinch me. It can't be real, right? 

Yeah, it's real. This priceless staple of Balmainia can be yours for the fabulous price of $11,410.  No problem!

Too bad all sizes sold out in less than 24 hours. Whoever owns those jackets now better watch their back because if I see one of these walking down the street, it's mine bitch. It'll be well worth a night in jail. Too bad most residents of Boston are fashion challenged and any mention of a designer other than Lilly Pulitzer will evoke bewilderment and anxiety. 

Anyway, I have Lady GaGa concert to go to tomorrow and this would be perfect, soooo GaGa. All the more reason to lament my impoverished college student status.
