Artistic and avant-garde, I'm trying to decide whether I interpret this Maison Martin Margiela strappy-back silk gown to be beautiful or bizarre.

The black silk is certainly smooth and sexy, and I do like the suggestion to wear this piece over a black slip-dress, however I'm not sold on the cut-out, slashed back.

Sure it's funky, but is it chic?

When I try to think about it the only thing that comes to mind is Edward Scissorhands.

Soooo, probably not.

While I'm all about Alexander Wang's easy chic, this leather jacket with removable skirt seems just a little too complicated for my liking.

Alone, the brown leather jacket is downtown cool and would look fantastic worn with one of the designers relaxed tees and a pair of skinny jeans.

The canvas skirt I could do without. The uneven hem, patch-pockets and awkward waist are dowdy at best.

So when the editors at NAP dub this Alexander Wang design a "future classic", I can't agree.

If you know me, you know that I am:

1. All about gooold!
2. A huge fan of silk anything for summer.
3. In love with sequins and sparkle for evening wear.

That being said, put 1., 2., and 3. together and I'm pretty sure the equation will not necessarily equal beautiful. Take these Ashish sequin disco shorts, for example.

Toronto-raised Ashish Gupta's not exactly subtle when it comes to his designs. And while I absolutely adore his sequin statement tees and sequin mini dresses, I can't say the same for these shorty shorts. These shorts are more Austin Powers than awesomely chic.

I mean, sure the elastic waistband is comfortable, and the silk would be cool in summer heat, but really?

Seriously, Alice Temperley? Seriously?

Methinks she is.

I'm unsure of whether or not styling this blue tiger print jumpsuit is a fashion step forward, or regression to my five-year-old self be-bopping around the house to NKOTB and playing with Barbies.

I mean, really. Check it out: From the shoulder ties and fabric belt, to the tapered leg and grey-wash pattern, this Alice by Temperley jumpsuit is a throw-back to the eighties. And while cotton is comfortable, we all know that comfort doesn't always equal fashion.

Am I right, or am I right?
