Something’s Fishy!

One fish, two fish, gold fish, boob fish. Here’s my “Freaky Friday Fashion” pic of the week, a fish bra. Brilliant! Now I know what I’m going to wear when I chaperone the kids to the Long Beach Aquarium this summer.

I also think it would be great if the OC Fair booth workers at the “Win a Fish” game wear these. That way when people complain, “What am I going to do with a gold fish?” They can just point to their bras and say, “DUH!”

Only boring people get bored. Keep those creative juices flowing!

Wood and Wood

Here’s my “Freaky Friday Fashion pic for the week. Wood-faced models at the Topman Design runway show in London. Hmmmm….OK, are they trying to say men board up their feelings? That’s my take.

The ironic thing about this show is that Ronnie Wood (the guitarist from my favorite band The Rolling Stones) was seen sitting in the front row with his new wife. Was he there for fashion inspiration? Or was he there because of the “wood” element and thought the show was about him? Since men clearly board up their feelings, I guess we’ll never know.

I still love you Ronnie and your style! Oh, and when you see Mick, please tell him that I love him too and wild horses will never drag me away.

Egging It On

Here’s my “Freaky Friday Fashion” pics for the week- “Eggs Over-Obsessive”.

Designer Tanju Babacan delivered a runway show in Istanbul last week that was really egg-credible. Dresses, blouses, dusters and accessories were covered in eggs, and the logo on the stage resembled strips of bacon. (I’m getting hungry.)

It seems a little scrambled to me, but stranger things have happened. I’m just waiting for someone to come up with a clutch bag that looks like rye toast to complete the look.

OK, I’m off to Denny’s for breakfast now.

Creepy Cushion

Here’s my “Freaky Friday Fashion” pic of the week, the ugly furniture cushion look. It’s so attractive and it hides the middle, so you don’t have to worry about over eating at your next event. Just grab any old cushion (the dirtier the better) and tie it around your bodice, and you’re done! For an added feature, crush up some crackers and smash them around the buttons.

Crap Shoot

Here’s my “Freaky Friday Fashion” pic for the week, crappy accessories. During London Fashion Week, designer Louise Gray decided to accessorize her collection with rolls of toilet paper. I’m not sure why she thought this was necessary? Her designs look amazing with all of the rich and lush fabrics, so adding toilet paper elements completely cheapened the look.

They say the best ideas come to you when you’re on the toilet or in the shower, so maybe she was inspired after sitting on the pot for a while? Who knows? Sorrry Louise, this idea should be flushed!

Wood You?

Here’s my “Freaky Friday Fashion” pic for the week, a hand-carved, wooden dress (I think it’s a dress─ could pass as a tunic) by Dutch designer Iris Van Herpen. It looks so effortless and comfortable. NOT! And what about the splinter factor?

I love the intricately,carved designs throughout the bodice and neckline; truly a masterpiece. I’m sure Herpen’s sales would excel if she scaled back on the wood clothing and started incorporating her designs into furniture instead. The piece pictured is a great start to a headboard.

Striking Back

Here’s my “Freaky Friday Fashion” pic of the week, Star Wars inspired garb. It’s really not that freaky, it’s actually quite empowering.

I’ve been through hell and back this week and at times had wished for a real lightsaber to fight off all of my opposition. Everything from unethical people to irresponsible choices made by others that have directly affected me, to my flu-stricken little boy, I’m striking back!

Although my little one has been sick at home all week, we’ve been bonding through popsicles and all of the Star Wars movies. So, it makes perfect sense for me to put on my big girl (Star Wars) panties underneath my R2D2 skirt, and stand up to the forces of darkness. Because no empire was ever saved without a good fight, a good love story, and a good wardrobe.

May the FORCE be with you!

The Big Cheese

Here’s my “Freaky Friday Fashion” pic for the week. A big cheese hat.

I love the bleu vein details in the cheese, the plate element, and the dangling grape bunches. It’s brilliant!

The only thing missing is a giant glass of wine and a few crackers.

Privacy Issues

Here’s my “Freaky Friday Fashion” pic for the week. Finally, a laptop accessory that makes sense! It’s about time someone invented a sweater that is able to bring you and your laptop together as one. Now you can stay warm and search whatever site you want without ever being creeped on. And, it’s so inconspicuous, no one will ever think that you’re a crazy lunatic for using one.

Doll Clothes

Here’s my “Freaky Friday Fashion” pic of the week. You all know how much I love Barbie, but I’m not sure if I’m happy about her hanging upside down naked from a skirt. Perhaps the designer is paying homage to Barbie and her amazing flexibility skills?

Or, maybe the designer was playing “nudist colony” Barbie and got inspired. Oh don’t act like you never played “nudist colony” Barbie. C’mon! If you were raised in the ’70s, lived in California, pretended you were a Charlie’s Angel, wore Dolphin shorts and tube tops, most likely you played “nudist colony” Barbie. (OK, perhaps spending weekends at my dad’s house in Malibu and Topanga Canyon had something to do with it– there were a lot of “colonies” around there.)

I’m going to say that this is a tribute to Barbie’s freedom. She can be anything and do anything and is not afraid to show it.

This definitely gives new meaning to doll clothes. Now, if we can only get someone to make a shirt from Ken dolls, this outfit would be complete.
