Of Latex & Geodes

Wow!  F/W 2013 Couture Season has brought some gorgeous things into the fashion world again and as usual, I loved the Maison Martin Margiela collection.  They struck a cord with my little eco-centric heart by up cycling vintage fabrics, embroidery and dresses, but what really got me were the latex covered shirts, jeans and boots and this:

Thank you, Style.com for the pics

  A Geode vest!  How amazing is that?  Not comfortable.  Not quiet.  But very, very cool.
As for the latex - it looks terrific but is totally unwearable down here in uber swampy southern Houston and probably most other climes also.  'T would be akin to one of those icky "sweat suits" from the 70s where you zip yourself in from head to toe to produce a lose-5-pounds-sweat.  
Just the sci-fi disco dominatrix boots, maybe?

The long jacket is marvelous

What to say about the plethora of pantsuits at Miu Miu for fall?  I dig 'em.  The wild ones are particularly awesome, if not a bit frightening. Most men would run when you walked by.  Lots of  "grandma's couch" comments would be volunteered.  But they're fun!

70s bedspread. yep.

Love a structured bag especially in a color!

is that a silver band?  would wear these to death

The shoeties were great, but the rest of the oxford-y type ones have been perfected already by John Fluevog.

Ok, more Pixie Market - Jumpsuits!

Breathe deep - look!  A black jumpsuit to covet and... drum roll.... it's even called the "Bianca".  Studio 54 and all the time....


WANT IT!  Just over $200.  Bianca

And, next, please take a peek at the flight suit! 
All you need is a monster pair of shoes and a killer necklace and - DONE!  out the door.
