The last ever Fashion Fix for 2008! So what’s going on in the world of fashion as we prepare to say goodbye to 2008?
So Beyonce is still on this little fashionista-wannabe mission. In her latest video ‘Diva’, B is still rockin Gareth Pugh. She was first spotted in Pugh for the MTV Europe Music Awards, raising eyebrows as it was a surprising departure from her usual awards get up – tight, low cut and sparkly. I’m not quite sure what to make of this, on one hand I think it’s brilliant that Pugh will get so much publicity, being a small, new-ish label. On the other hand, Beyonce and Pugh doesn’t quite sit right it seems to be a bit of an awkward fit. The video is awesome though, particularly those fringed sunglasses. Not sure if I like them more than Margiela’s L’incognito sunglasses though!
From what I gather, this has already aired in the US, but it has yet to arrive in the UK. We all know that The Hills is scripted, fake genius (totally addicted to it), and it seems Whitney Port’s spinoff The City is much of the same. Apparently she’s never really there and the filming crew make normal employees’ lives a nightmare. From being unable to move things on their own desks to the constant paparazzi, seems like life is not rosey at DVF. Gonna sound very shallow, but I don’t really care about those dramas, I’m more interesting in Olivia Palermo, who’s been shooting Whitney bitchy looks in the adverts. A real-life Amanda? Let’s hope so, please let there be a real-life Marc too!!
Normal activity shall resume with many, many outfit posts (I promise), but for now I’m busy, busy with the sales.
Wow, so much happened this year in fashion…good and bad. Can’t wait to see what ’09 holds!
i love the video of Beyonce and hope the Chanel crisis doesn’t grow!!
Awww man! I was gonna post about Beyonce/Gareth Pugh and Lady Gaga/Roisin Murphy/Grace Jones on my blog, thinking I’m all original…and you beat me, lol. Great post.Kate Moss looks as gorgeous as 1998, seriously. I know she’s not old or anything, but I can’t believe she’s been around 10+ years.I hope Chanel is on sale when I head to Paris/London in the spring! That’d be beyond fab, but only b/c I’m not worried about it going under. It’s too much of a classic!
Hi there-hope you bag some really good bargains my dear! It is such a shame about Chanel, too 🙁 Happy new year to you!
goodluck with the sales!! and im going online to check for any episode of whitney in the city *wink wink* HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
Happy New Year!!!! I’m waiting for the first 2009 fashion fix!
Never thought Beyonce and fashion would go together, but anything from her usual sequined get-up is a good thing.
