Gucci handbags sale http://www.yeahgucci.com Sat, 24 Jul 2010 03:30:28 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.1 en hourly 1 Simon Doonan says men’s fashion enjoying “midget moment” http://www.yeahgucci.com/simon-doonan-says-men%e2%80%99s-fashion-enjoying-%e2%80%9cmidget-moment%e2%80%9d/ http://www.yeahgucci.com/simon-doonan-says-men%e2%80%99s-fashion-enjoying-%e2%80%9cmidget-moment%e2%80%9d/#comments Sat, 24 Jul 2010 03:30:28 +0000 mysite http://www.yeahgucci.com/?p=213

In perhaps the only Fashion Week coverage that matters, Simon Doonan hit the fall shows for Band of Outsiders, Rag & Bone, and Thom Browne, and proclaimed in his New York Observer column that “as a vertically challenged person, I couldn’t be happier”:

The truth of the matter is that fashion is having a midget moment. Our time has come. Since I am petite, and trendy men’s wear designers like Scotty [of BOO] are now cutting their clothes for shriveled heroin addicts with no internal organs, there is now more merch for me to buy than ever before. Tiny is the size du jour. An edgy shrunken jacket becomes, on my torso, a serviceably hip sport coat. Superskinny rocker pants? On my legs they become a nifty narrow trouser. When things were blousy and boxy—remember when Karl Lagerfeld was tubby and he always wore those Comme Des Garcons suits?—I was shit out of luck. Now, thanks to the new anorexia chic of the 21st century, I’m drowning in options. Choices! Choices! Choices! I am like a kid in a candy store.

Trademark wit aside, Doonan speaks with authority here (being both 5-foot-4.5 and the creative director at Barneys NY, credentials of equal weight, surely), expanding on a point I’ve mentioned previously on this site. Thanks to Thom Browne and the current shift toward downsized duds, times are good for the half-pint. So buy now. The glass may be half empty. As Doonan asks: “If tiny goes out of fashion, what the hell am I going to wear?”

Glass and cocktail shaker are chilling in the fridge. And I made sure I still had some olives on hand for the martini I’ll be making after I hit “publish” on this post. This blog turned one year old last week — and I’m celebrating.

I feel good about what I’ve accomplished with Short Shrifted over the last year. I wrote 58 posts covering all sorts of topics: clothing stores and brands, custom tailoring, style advice, DIY alterations, fashion-industry news, sale alerts, interviews and helpful websites. A bunch of readers wrote to say that my advice was helpful and that felt good.

It’s been a technological and sartorial learning process for me. When I bought the domain name, I had absolutely no knowledge of blogging software, web design or html. But I’ve been able to tweak the design and add a few small bells and whistles. Best of all, I’ve followed some of my own research and advice and I feel like I’m slowly taking control of my wardrobe. I’ve gotten rid of a lot of clothes that never really fit right — and replaced them with things that really do fit properly.

Looking forward to the next year of Short Shrifted: some goals, a call to action, and then my martini.

Tourists come to marvel at them at Buckingham Palace.

But the Guards could soon be wearing a faux-fur version, designed by the vegetarian Stella McCartney.

On Thursday a delegation from People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (Peta) is meeting Peter Luff, minister for defence equipment, support and technology, to propose their animal-friendly alternative.

Peta claims the plastic-fibre hat now meets rigorous Ministry of Defence water repellency tests, after years working on a technology called Bear28.

The hats are also fitted with air vents to keep wearers cool on parade.

McCartney said: “Historically, England has a very high regard for animals, so it makes perfect sense that the MoD should continue shedding ceremonial furs from uniforms.

“Initially the big bear fur hats were intended to make soldiers look taller as they marched over hills in battle, but they haven’t been worn in action for over a hundred years.

“I’ve been working on this with Peta for a few years now and am really happy with the final product, as I hope the MoD will be when they see it.”

Dan Matthews, senior vice-president at the animal rights group, added: “In 2005 the MoD carried out specific weather tests on their own prototype which failed on water absorption levels.

“After four years working on this hat, we carried out the same tests at the same test centre and it passed.”

He claimed it was a “win-win situation” as the synthetic hats were cheaper than real bearskins, 230 grams lighter “and the bears will certainly be happier”.

However, while the MoD said it “remains open” to new ideas, a spokesman stressed it would not be chucking out the original bearskins anytime soon.

They are worn infrequently, need little maintenance and last many years, she explained.

She said: “The MoD remains open to testing material that industry might offer us to asses whether a faux fur meets the requirements for a replacement bearskin hat material. So far industry has not been able to produce a suitable material to meet the Guards’ requirements.”

She also stressed: “All bearskins used in the UK are sourced from Canada where bears are culled under the direction of the Canadian government to keep the bear population under control.”

Bearskin hats have been worn since the Battle of Waterloo in 1815 where they were taken as a badge of honour by the Grenadier Guards when they defeated Napoleon’s bearskin-wearing Imperial Guard.

To celebrate the new designs of their iconic friendship bracelets, Links of London are having a ‘Friendship Blitz’. They will be hiding brightly-coloured gnomes in seven major cities around the UK from August 2nd. Clues will be posted on their website and facebook page and there will also be an online hunt. If you find a gnome, you just take your picture with it, and bring it to a Links store to collect a friendship reward from the new AW10 collection.

Never mind fashion, have some food instead. Omar Allibhoy, former pupil of Ferran Adrià of El Bulli fame has set off on a 550-mile culinary journey to bring Spanish food to anyone who, well, feels like learning about it. He’s travelling the length and breadth of England in the shape of a giant ‘T” (for Tapas, naturally). All you need to is suggest a place to meet him and bring some crockery. Find an appropriate location on the website, drop him an email, send him a tweet or follow him on Foursquare.

Great news for shoppers in Glasgow – the City Marketing Bureau has launched your very own app for the iPhone, giving all the information you could possibly need when out and about. There are details of special offers, discounts, the nearest cafes for caffeine-replacement, beauty salons and more.

Fancy a spot of pampering? How about a lovely treatment for your hair in the peace and quiet of a private room. Celebrated hairdresser Paul Edmonds is opening two exclusive rooms within his Knightsbridge salon from August 1st. Get yourself a lovely collagen infusion – perfect for sun or sea-damaged hair – for £50, or any number of other luxurious treatments。

However, there are just as many purchasers who do feel cheated if they inadvertently buy a fake replica bag, whereas they only want the genuine designer article.  Consumers need to realise that every time they purchase a counterfeit version that is a sale lost for the design house.

In fact I soon noticed that genuine and authentic were two of the most overused words online.  If a bag is authentic would you need to be told that.  The words authentic and genuine are almost the kiss of death to some auctions and many websites.  Very few online retailers are approved to be able to sell genuine designer handbags. 

If you buy a possible fake then you must accept that is what it may be; you have a replica bag not the real thing.  The key point is that you have to like the bag for its own sake.  In my opinion, the only things that really matter are that the bag sits on the shoulder, and looks balanced with its owner, and most important of all is that it has a quality of materials that will shine through over the years.  It really must be high quality leather and have good hardware.

A high percentage of traded goods, including clothes and accessories are counterfeit.  More alarming, is the knowledge that these goods include fake products that may be taken into or used on the body. Yes – your body, my body, not necessarily some anonymous person, but you or me.  This problem of fake goods is in everyone’s backyard or doorstep.

Fake handbags and rip off trainers may seem harmless when chatting among girlfriends as they do not cause many potentially harmful problems.  Sadly, many people consider it all perfectly acceptable and think their contribution to this shadow economy won’t make any difference.  But the same suppliers of fake handbags also supply other products that may cause harm for individuals.

Fake cosmetics and pharmaceuticals include somewhat alarmingly, fake Tamiflu, cardiac heart pills, defective hip implant parts as well as fake guns (Glock pistols) and airplane replacement parts.  Just imagine having no response to a faulty drug for a serious ailment, or a faulty car part that causes a lethal or even minor accident.
