Filed under: Handbags
Good news designer handbag fanatics who also love cheap pizza, it appears that the next time you order a medium or large 'Viva pizza' -- whatever that is -- you also get a chance to win one of "five authentic Gucci bags!" Hmm, why does that seem so completely messed up? Maybe because one company sells high end fashion clothing and accessories and one sells schlocky stuffed crust pizza?

Do you need your fix of Disney fashion, jewelry, and accessories but don't want to be stuck at Wal*Mart prices (and quality)? If you have money to spend and the mouse is your bling, than Disney Vault 28 is for you.The store is located along the winding walkway of Downtown Disney at the Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, California. Disney Vault 28 promotes itself as the place "where hip trends collide with Disney." They're right.
It is rather high-end, given the other Disney offerings in clothing nearby, which is really saying something. However, the quality and styles involved are aimed at a different palate than your average souvenir seeking tourist. Not that there is anything wrong with that.
The Disney-themed boutique offers some of the trendiest names in haute couture such as Chip & Pepper, Paige Denim, Bejeweled, Grail, Hart & Huntington, King Baby, Red Monkey, and Mighty Fine. Basically, I don't let my kids touch anything.
Go ahead, take the virtual tour and let your inner-fashionista and your inner-child spend some time together.
Flying saucer fashion: The latest in haute headgear?
Filed under: Runway Trends
Next time you're heading out in the rain, or just want a little shade on an especially sunny day, why not consider this, er, unique hat from Valentino? It'd definitely keep you dry, and, best of all, it looks like a flying saucer -- what more could you want? OK, maybe the fact that you can't see while you're wearing it is a small problem (speaking of that, how did this model make it down the runway without crashing to her death?). The odd piece of enormous headgear was part of Valentino's Haute Couture runway show in Paris last week. Couture, if you're not familiar with it, is to fashion what modern art is to painting (sometimes it's good for inspiration, other times it's just weird) -- so rest assured, gargantuan, alien-spaceship style hats won't be showing up on store shelves anytime soon.
But you know, cut out some holes for the eyes, and maybe this would work -- albeit in a Scientology kinda way. What do you think?
