Beautiful or Bizarre? Antik Batik jumpsuit

A deep v-neck halter is a stylish alternative to a plain tank for summer 2008.

Wide leg pants were all over the spring 2008 runways.

Tribal-inspired prints are totally on-trend.

So, because the above three sentences are true, does that mean this Antik Batik turel halter jumpsuit is really hot?

Beautiful or Bizarre? Lola Silver Sun Hat

Beautiful or Bizarre? Lola Silver Sun Hat

 

I’m totally going to style a floppy wide-brim hat this summer, if for no other reason than to shield my alabaster skin from the sun’s rays.

I’m not totally convinced I could wear this silver sun hat by Lola, however. While I love the details — silver mylar braids, shaped cap, floppy brim — the silver metallic colour is overwhelming.

Stick silver metallic on a 22 inch rim, and you’ve got a hat that’s too flashy for beach, too gaudy for resort, –

Just right for yachting off the Côte d’Azur?

Beautiful or Bizarre? Aminaka Wilmont Mannequin Dress

Beautiful or Bizarre? Mannequin Dress

This Aminaka Wilmont trompe l’oeil mannequin dress reminds me of those iron-on image aprons featuring a scantily clad female torso that’s worn by a really fat man at a trailer park barbeque.

‘Trompe l’oeil’ translates ‘cheat the eye’, but by wearing this dress you cheat yourself out of looking good.

Net-A-Porter editors say this Aminaka Wilmont sheath is “quite possibly, the perfect dress…”

And I think it is, too,–

For a costume party at Halloween.

What do you girls think?

The Editors’ Notes on Net-A-Porter say this Bodyamr Dravtu silk jersey pantsuit “is a great look for modern-vintage evening wear.”

And that’d be totally correct, if the definition of great was synonymous with super ugly.
