Ba-nanas

I am hardly a D&G fan. I tend to find their items over-sized, over-branded, and tacky! This collection, however, I am dyyyyyyying over. It has such a WOW factor! The colours, the cuts, the styles! If any of these outfits foretell of what's to become of the 'in' category, I just might just lose my mind... Along with my so-called budget. I've said it before, and I'll say it again... This is the era of 'anything goes'. Pleats, chords, fur, tweed, flannel... Everything's in, and everything's hot!

Since when did branding become cool? Since D&G puked it up onto a hoodie, along with the gayest colours of the rainbow... Obviously! None of these colours go, and I'm loving it. I'd like to also take a moment to point out the uber casualness that's paired with a shirt and tie. Really? Really?!? But it works!

This is an example of a Garbage Bag Jacket. I don't know if that's the technical name, nor do I care. Normally I hate them, this time I love them. I think it's the colour. It really IS working. Note the pants. Pleated. Chord. Anything goes.

Tweed is so hot right now. Such a lovely fitted suit, and paired with some bold, red hightops, to boot!

Another ad-spot. I love the sleeves.

I must take a moment to go insane over this model's hair...

Even Mickey has managed to make it into this collection. These pants are my main focus. Note the severe dropped crotches. I find that the dropped crotch is normally faded into the leg . These pants go instantly into a tighter fit, making for a much neater looking pant.

I am needing each and every one of these looks for my date with Rachel Zoe. No, I don't actually have a date with her or actually know her. Yes, I would D-I-E to.

  2. To be honest, I favor menswear styling over womens all the time! I find myself cruising the mens side or popping into mens boutiques all the time for at least the past year. I don't think it's just about mens-like dressing for women as of late but genderless in the industry altogether. A lot of these looks - could be worn by women too - if you just refine the cuts of some of the clothing. No?
