More Shoes and Bloomers!

Some more amazing shoes from Milan:

From the Gucci show. I don't know why I have a sudden fascination with completely impractical boots. But these are so amazing. Even if they wouldn't actually keep your legs warm which is what boots are really supposed to be good for.

From the Pollini show. I love these. I think it's the combination of the plaid and the bows. So cute.

And now some more bloomers!

From the Moschino show. Love. Honestly I am only wearing bloomers this spring.

Iceberg

Iceberg, designed by Paulo Germani, produced a collection inspired by Mickey Mouse! In Milan! Not London where most of the crazy shows (catepillar tunnel dress...) are put on. I personally loved it. The clothes that didn't feature the mouse were completely wearable and amazing too.

I love that someone finally did this. The shoulders that are on trend right now do look completely like Mickey's ears, so why not put the top of his head as the bodice for a dress?

I love the Mickey heads covering her nipples in the sheer shirt. It's a great contradiction between the innocence of the cartoon character and the naughtiness of a sheer shirt. Plus the skirt is beautiful.

It's like the hidden Mickey game you play on the Walt Disney website. Can you find it here? (hint, it's on the hotpants)

This was the first of the non-Mickey looks that I loved. Its a perfect girly suit, and I love the detailing around the waist.

This dress just looks like a lot of fun to wear. The fabric's great and I love the shape of the sleeve.

I'm in love with this coat. I think after you have a leopard print coat the next thing you need is a neon pink satin full skirted trench coat. It goes with anything really. I mean, neon pink is totally the next neutral.

I Need These Shoes

All From the Versace Spring 2010 Show
Or maybe these ones:

Nevermind, these ones are insane! Love love love:

And of course I'd need a dress to wear with the shoes.

Loving Versace right now.

Monster Arm Milan

So last week at London fashion week Giles Deacon's show included what looked like giant monster fur arm warmers. Compared to last seasons Pac Man hats this was pretty tame and almost normal. At least when you only see them once.
Looking at the Milan shows I found that apparently scary monster fur arms are a new trend! Seriously. They appeared multiple times in over half of the shows.

Aquilano Rimondi

I mean, they do look warm. But wouldn't a coat made entirely out of fur be even warmer? Maybe this way is cheaper, their way of responding to the recession.

Roberto Cavalli

This one is even stranger. The fur arms are attached to a sweater. Not even a full sweater, a belly showing sweater. I'm pretty sure there's no place where your arms would be freezing but your belly is hot.

Salvatore Ferragamo

Attached to a blouse, I'm guessing so you can look like a monster in the office.
Scariest variation:

Marni

It looks like she has gorilla hands! Why would anyone ever want to look like they had gorilla hands.
I like crazy things, but mostly for the reason that crazy things are usually unique. Monster arms are no longer unique if everyone is doing them. It's just weird.
