Style - Beautiful or Bizarre

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?
