The Sublime & the Sordid #3

We have some absolutely delightfully terrible men's fashion today.

On the pleasant side of clothing, pieces from designer's cheaper lines are featured.


Sordid

How many times have you been renovating your house and you can't find your dang measuring tape to save your life? Well, you're in luck. Introducing the human measuring tape, for all your home improvement needs.

Sublime


Simply Vera Floral Hi Lo Dress at Kohls This is part of a Vera Wang line, and it is $51.00. The graduating in scale floral print on the perfect peach background, leaves me feeling dreamy.

Sordid


These are sandals, handmade out of vintage jeans. They are sold on Etsy for only $125.00. What a bargain.


Sublime


Lane Collection Printed Pencil Skirt Cool, clean and elegant for $78.00.


Sordid


I'm so glad that I saw these shirts! It will really simplify my Christmas shopping, because I know that every male on my list would love a drag queen sweater.

Sublime


Derek Lam for DesigNation Striped Sheath Dress at Kohls for $42.00. Stripes that are interesting, hurrah!

Also, Target, Kohls is kicking your butt with their designer lines, you need to step up.

Easter


Ahh yes the Easter Dress. When I was little I even got a white straw hat adorned with daisies. Now days it is the Sunday I want to have a new outfit on.

So what to wear for Easter? Well last year I bought separates so I could wear them for the rest of the year, including one of my best purchases EVER, a denim pencil skirt. I have worn that skirt repeatedly! Worth every penny and was very reasonably priced, around $40.00 for what Tim Gunn would call an "investment piece." (BTW if you don't know who Tim Gunn is please google him instantly)

I also always buy a new pair of shoes for Easter, but this could just be me since I have "a problem" when it comes to buying shoes. In fact I just purchased my Easter shoes today (thank you tax refund). I won't give them away completely, but they do have a yellow gladiator thing going on.

I was just at the mall today and there were a lot of great sales. Romy had a beautiful silky green wrap dress that would be great for Easter and most items in the store were at least 25% off. Macy's had some shoe clearance for 75% off, and for the guys Nordstroms Rack had a new shipment of Ben Sherman (one of my favorite mens brands).

Above is a picture of this RACHEL Rachel Roy Ring that I am in love with...too bad it is completely sold out. ABBS
