{song of the day} Zebra Katz - Ima Read

The "unofficial" official song of Paris Fashion Week...after it was the soundtrack to Rick Owens AW 2012 show.  So, so chic.  However...a few people, of course {and maybe even rightfully}, had some issues with the lyrics.


Here's a quote from the intelligent Owens that I believe explains the infectious, can't get it outta your head, song perfectly;  “‘I’m gonna read that bitch’ is a gay vogueing-culture term for ‘tell her what’s what.’ It’s ridiculously exaggerated in this song and expressed mostly through the female voice. I liked how it expressed savage impulses in a chilly, controlled way. And I was speaking to the savage impulses we all recognize in ourselves and suppress in elaborate and formal ways.” {well put}

Well, this is strange. Or at least I think it is; you guys can be the final judge. To celebrate the global Fashion Weeks (which kick off today – everyone say a little prayer for me and my sanity) this season, Miu Miu is launching a grand total of 46 one-of-a-kind bags starting with 16 at the brand’s Prince Street boutique in New York. The bags went on sale this morning, with the remaining 30 showing up in London, Milan and Paris over the next few weeks.
All of the designs are a variation on the same theme – a small, ladylike satchel with an oversized frame that made its debut on the Spring 2012 runway. The materials vary from printed wovens to studded crocodile and the prices go from $1495 on up, but I’m not sure that there’s a single bag in this group on which I’d spend the money, not even for something one-of-a-kind from one of my all-time favorite designers.
