Haute or Not - Leighton Meester in Christopher Kane

August 11, 2009 by Ehmonie Hainey · 4 Comments 

Haute or Not - Leighton Meester in Christopher Kane mushroom cloud
Leighton Meester came out to attend a special advanced screening of “Spread”, hosted by Gotham and Hamptons Magazines to support Gossip Girl co-star and boyfriend Sebastian Stan. The actress wore a piece from Christopher Kane’s 2010 Resort (first-ever) pre-collection, which features amber-colored mushroom cloud prints from nuclear test explosions. (Kane took the free prints from the U.K. Ministry of Defense website.) The chemically-hued prints made their way onto a baby-doll dress, worn by Meester, that looked more like a bikini top, short sleeves and skirt all cobbled together. She paired it with Giuseppe Zanotti shoes, a Louis Vuitton clutch, Cathy Waterman earrings and Jack Vartanian rings. Kane is clearly into shock and awe fashion - first his gorilla, ape and baboon dresses for Spring (Rihanna was a fan); now nuclear mushroom cloud prints. What do you think of Kane’s innovative new collection? Is it haute or not?

Four Gladiators and What to Wear For a Date with Craigslist

January 15, 2009 by Donna Artz · Leave a Comment 

Don’t get me wrong, I love a gladiator. I wish I had one that worked.

Giuseppe Zanotti Women's Gladiator Sandal

I spent $650 on these Giuseppe Zanotti Women’s Gladiator Sandal last year and they just never worked. They always made me feel like Big Foot when I put them on, Maybe its the size 9 I sport, or the skinny ankle/wide foot ratio I was born with.

Sergio Rossi Momo Bis Painted Python Gladiator Sandal

But a gladiator with a high heel, like the Sergio Rossi Momo Bis Painted Python Gladiator Sandal - that’s a different story. Now we’re talking sexy and tough, edgy and dangerous. Put these on and you will attract some very expensive attention.

Sergio Rossi Monochrome platform sandals

In my dreams I am the woman who wears these Sergio Rossi Monochrome platform sandals with a short chiffon dress and a very important handbag to a very important job. These are for the few people left in the world who haven’t been bamboozled by Bernie. They won’t be buying them. Expensive shoes are going to be sitting on the shelves until sale breaks earlier than usual this year.

Dolce Vita Atlas Stud Banded Thong Slides

So I’m settling for these Dolce Vita Atlas Stud Banded Thong Slides. They’re tough and sweet and the color is different than the usual black/silver/gold gladiators I’m sick of. I’m buying these for the girl who got her ‘a$$ kicked’.

While I search Craigslist and hope that my horoscope is correct and things will change, these sandals seem sane.
