The Louis Vuitton Don Disappoints...


with his very bad manners on last night's VMA stage.

And look his prized Louis Vuitton sneakers can be had for $189.99; I guess they weren't as sold out as was reported. These sneakers allegedly retailed for between $870 and $1,140.

Maybe these are fakes. At any rate, this price is closer to what the shoes are actually worth. Why would anyone spend close to $1,000 for the above when you could get J.M. Weston's Model 180?

Not Only Clothes, but a Gallery Too!


When you think Anthropologie, you usually think clothes, accessories, and decorative items for the home. I got this great Velvet shirt at the Rockefeller Center location last week.

Even though it is basically just a T shirt, it is so much more. The shape is reminiscent of many superfabulous blouses and dresses from seasons past.

In my excitement about clothes, I digressed just a bit. Not only is Anthropologie a clothing store, but its Rockefeller Center location also houses a petite art gallery. Currently, Eloise Danch's art is on display. And if you love clothes as much as I do, I think you'll enjoy viewing her work.
