British Designer, Gisele Gannes, has found an unusual niche in jewelry. She specializes in Divorce Jewelry. I like her collection , as you may already know- I’m a brass knuckle afficiando- you can see more on her site here
but what’s with the beaky birds? Is that a special significance, or is that to gauge out the ex’s eye?Either way, it works for me…
She also does mourning jewelry… by the way, is it wrong to knit scarfs from a deceased cats’ hair?My cats are still alive but, I’m saving hair from my cats to knit a teddy bear- I have about one grocery bag full of each cat… I need one more bag and then a Mr. Marmar teddy bear will be commissioned….. yes, I’m the neighborhood crazy cat lady and I’m only 31.

Fabuless Fashionista’s blog featured the strangest shoes ever and here are just a few. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find each shoes designer ( That may be a good thing -considering some are heinous), but here they are anyway. The first photo are painful looking and I hate feet (except for my kid’s feet) , so that just gross.I just don’t like the toes and in between the toes, etc.. and Yes, I have a problem. The second photo are “dog shoes”! I first looked at it and thought Narnia! Or Sarah Palin house slippers. The third photo looks like a sea urchin and could be of great use in a back alley brawl. The glass slipper is pretty cool, but imagine if it shatters on your foot. ouch…. And the last photo , is just fupe. It looks like you could poach eggs in it if you wanted.

Designers Han & Brikauski had an Aha- moment when they designed the Hood Thong. The aha moment occurred when they were put a hood on their head when they were chilly and realized it’s not their ass. No kidding.. I have no idea why or how they came up with this. But it looks like something Kylie Minogue would order one in every color. This could be hot if there was a top attached then you could wear it to the beach. But, it has no top, so in my book it’s pretty much useless. On their site , you can pre-order… before they make it in ‘factories in China’. I can just see the children wondering what the fupe are they making. Poor things : (

British Milliner, Stephen Jones , designed this fugly hat that was in John Galliano’s Spring 2009 collection. I’m confused as to what this is exactly. So, I see the flower… is that chicken wire??… and is that Waldo’s scarf( I know he doesn’t wear a scarf- but it looks like he would wear this one)?
I dunno, but I usually love clever hats, but this one is not cool. Speaking of chicken wire, I’m glad Prop 2 in California passed- the one for banning animal cruelty on farms. Having said that, I’m craving El Pollo Loco. For everyone who doesn’t know what I’m talking , click here. I used to make fun of the place when I first moved to California, then I I was forced to eat there one day - and I liked it!
Back to hats, I like hats with feathers on it the most.

Portuguese designer, Luis Porem designed these ink- filled glasses called ‘rgb rainbow glasses’. You can change the color of the glasses as often as you wish with any color. I wonder if it leaks?? That would definitely burn the eyes! I don’t like this… The shape of the glasses are a little too nerdy , also the frames are too thick. I have thick black glasses, but they are pretty sleek compared to these. These glasses just need a Groucho Marx nose and mustache and you’re good to go. It sort of reminds me of those loopy straws. I loved those straws when I was kid! Those straws got me to drink milk.

I searched the internet for the designer of this masterpiece, but it was unfruitful. I wonder if the eggs break if you sit on it. I sort of assumed the same theory applies from that of the bed of nails (this link is so wrong in so many ways). Maybe not. Those hens must be soooo pissed . You know this belongs to the pimp hen. You know what would have been sweet? If they spray painted all the eggs gold! Ghetto Fabulous!!! I’m sure this costs like a million dollars, but what do you do with it after a week? I’m sure P.Diddy is ordering one right now.

This can go with the Pig’s feet that Britney surely snacks on down south. This is a Pig’s Ear Bracelet made by Aurther Hash. I googled his ass and came up with this.
It ’s actually a really cool website! He has an etsy shop with moe wearable jewelry like this :
it’s a ring made from ping -pong paddles.
I’m sure he made that pig’s ear bracelet to bring attention to his other jewelry ’cause I’m sure the guy is a starving artist. Check out his etsy store and buy something so he doesn’t scare us with more ghastly things. I personally like the grenade pin. I have a gold grenade necklace that I adore. But I don’t wear it to the airport.

File this under FUG. A designer from England , Walter Works, has decided to take everyday random junk items like pot scrubbers, old shoes, keyboards and the inside of a cassette to make clothing. I didn’t say fashionable clothing. The first photo is make from casette guts, the second, pot scubbers (copper would have been more elegant), the third , sneakers , and the last keyboards and wires (is that a pacifier?!)
This reminds me of the time when I made a purse out of a high heel. I sewed fabric around the top of the shoe and attached a red ribbon to the end of it as a strap.I wore this crap to a club one time and it doubled as weapon to keep gross guys away. But it also attracted other gross guys with shoe/foot fetishes. So, I gave that crap away to the Sal’s boutique (Salvation Army) when I moved. Somewhere in Providence , there is a homeless tramp with a shoe purse.
Anyfug, this proves that one man’s trash is still another man’s trash. But , I give Walter an A for effort. Like the same way , I give my young son an A for effort even though it’s completely hideous.

Junya Wantanbe’s Spring 2009 collection was a mix of East Village crazy homeless meets an African villager. The only thing missing was the Basmati Rice Bag handbag and petruli. I’m not really a fan of this collection, but I get what Junya is trying to do. I’m glad she didn’t go all black like she usually does. So, this collection is really a step out of her box. But, with that said , I must file this under hellafug…. , but I give her credit for trying. We’ll hang this right on the fridge, Junya.

I seriously couldn’t decide which photos to post because they were all equally fuped like these here! This is the latest collection from Maison Martin Margiela. Yes, Martin Margiela - the boutique on Santa Monica Blvd. in Beverly Hills with the Sparkletts irridescent thingies on the outside of the building. Anyfuglycrazycollection, I think designers are saving a crap load of money on hiring ‘Butta-faces’ and covering their entire head with props like wigs and hosiery. The hosiery could be a reference to mini-mart hold ups or those people from Anonymous. And the afro wig is probably a reference to the blaxploitation years or just a microphone. By the way is that Jacko in the first photo??? Well, we know what Madonna’s gonna wear on tour….
