Old people can be fabulous too

Email thisPosted Oct 14th 2008 at 11:03AM by Annie Wu

The Sartorialist occasionally features older folks on the street, but have you ever wondered what it would be like for a blog to focus mainly on that demographic? Of course you have. We know what you think about all day. Take a look at Advanced Style, a style on the street blog that features the finest fashions from the older folks. These people have had years to find the balance between fashionable and practical and have picked up a little something from every decade they've lived through.

All we can think about lately are the chilly days of fall, and we dream about snuggling up in cozy hoodies and lots of layers. We've fallen in love with this one-of-a-kind electric blue hoodie. It's the perfect mix of punk meets modern sporty styling. The artist only creates one of every item she makes, so you're guaranteed to be the only person rocking this eye catching style. If this particular hoodie isn't right for you, other styles are available and custom requests are welcome.

Tyra takes homeless chic to a new level on ANTM

Email thisPosted Feb 28th 2008 at 5:10PM by Kyle Hepp

I'm all for celebrities using their fame to bring attention to good causes. And I understand that Tyra's theme for Season 10 of America's Next Top Model is about giving something back. But, last night with the homeless photo shoot things were a bit over the top.

Let me back up and explain what happened. The weekly photo shoot for this episode featured the model contestants dressed down in "homeless" clothing (which it really wasn't, at all). Then they shot a scene with girls who were actually homeless dressed in couture clothing.

The idea behind the photo shoot was a great one. And maybe what the camera showed us last night in a one hour episode isn't the whole story. But, in essence the girls who were truly homeless were used as props. Most of the models barely said a word to any of the homeless girls or tried to get to know them and their stories. Meanwhile the models tried to tap into the emotion that someone on the streets might feel, when they just don't have the slightest clue what that would be like. Well, aside from Marvita and the girl from Somalia, Fatima, both who have actually experienced time living in shelters -- Tyra does love to pick a girl with a good sob story!

Watch the models try and be homeless in the clip below.

The whole thing just felt way too phony for my liking.

Anyways what did you think of last night's ANTM episode? Are there any clear favorites emerging? I like Claire. Who do you think should go all the way?

Sometimes, real people DO dress like that

Do you ever wonder (while flipping through yet another fashion magazine and pausing to ponder exactly how the hell someone thought to pair that giraffe-patterned sweater with the mango-colored footless tights and managed to make it look fashionable), if anyone in the real world actually puts together ensembles like that? You know, without a team of stylists working for them?

While I can certainly put together an outfit for an occasion, I'm sorry to say I don't dress quite to the nines every time I hit Whole Foods. And even then, I look around, and I'm not the worst dressed person in the building. This is depressing.

The Sartorialist has renewed my confidence in the world's ability to dress for everyday activities. The blog consists of pictures of fabulous (but for the most part, regular) people on the street (and occasionally at a fashion show, but not the models), and was started by a man who had been in the fashion industry for years. It has garnered numerous awards and is a Time Magazine Top 100 Design Influencer -- I know for certain it has influenced me. How will it change your closet?
