fringe fest – already on it!!!

Inner flappers and rhinestone cowboys rejoice – it’s totally time to bring in the fringe! The flirty movement-filled look is starting to rock summer ensembles, be it the main “Ooh/Ahh” or sassy, simple embellishment to an already WERK ensemble. But to be fair (and ever so modest), ds had it out in full swing before the “famouses” (what can we say, we’re SO ahead of the curve). Just ‘memba where you saw it first, and get shimmying!


But wait, what have we here? DS BRINGING THE TREND when last in LA!!!

and this we just HAD to put in...

custom menswear for the masses

Okay, fine, we’re in a state of money consciousness. We all know it, all feel it, but who’s to say that should stop us from having that special “MMMmmmm” that comes with a custom-made garment? Even the financially challenged deserve to feel famous every now and again, right? Well, for the man who loves a little extra TLC in his tailoring without the treacherous tab, we give you: www.mysuitny.com. You can build your very own custom suit from their website (fabric, lining, cut and all), and in two weeks feel like that extra special VIP we know you can be!

view ds’ very own custom creation for summer here!

Vinter Mote Øverst Trend: Nordic Gensere!

What, don’t speak Norwegian? Well then, be bilingual in your fashion sense by wearing the hottest trend in winter wear: Nordic sweaters!

Go simple and classic with a pair of jeans and boots, or layer under a corduroy blazer or knit cardigan with thick scarves for that earthy “sheep herder in the city” look just featured by GQ. An authentic hand knit Nordic sweater from Oslo will set you back a pretty penny ($200-400), but will no doubt last a lifetime and be your go-to winter piece for simple styling. If your bank account is moth-eaten, LLBean and has less expensive options that will fill the Nordic niche, and don’t forget your friendly neighborhood Salvation Army, where we recently hit the jackpot with a fabulous trend-fit knit for $2!! Either way, ta et motestikkord fra de Nordmennene denne vinter og pakker deg i tradisjonsstil (take a cue from the Norwegians this winter and wrap yourself in traditional style!)

Just layering it up on the runway - total cost? Lots and lots of Kroner.

Salvation Army find: $2. Catching a thrift-high: Priceless.

mirror mirror on my feet, are you the envy on the street?

High fashion vs. lower back pain – we’re torn.

The drama and beauty of a clever and interestingly architected shoe is truly something to behold. And to be the owner of such a shoe, even if you can only wear it for 4.7 seconds before your biscuits start burning and you’d sell your soul for a pair of bathroom slippers, makes the pain and suffering worth it (I mean, c’mon, who needs the feeling in their legs when they look THAT good?).

Behold, for the emperor in all of us, the “Invisible Shoe”:

andreia-chaves-shoes-11

Gorgeous and to-die-for, but just thinking about walking more than three steps in these mirrored beauties gives us crater-sized bunions and cramping calves. Has Brazil’s Andreis Chaves made your dreams come true with this creation or given you seven years of nightmares? Let us know!

a) AAAAAaaaarrrrrrgggghhhh! Shame on you for wanting them!

b) MMMMmmmmmmmmmm! Shame on me for not having them!

Oh, and check out more of Ms. Andreis’ conceptual and architechual designs here!

Want it

As soon as we saw it we gasped, then squealed “MMmmmmmmm!” in high pitched voices. That’s when ya’ know, kids. That’s when ya’ know.

want it

and we don’t know why.

Yes, we do. It’s fabulous. And if it were in our possession, we’d be snatching it off each other’s heads.

Oh, and be sure to check out the seller’s store. There are some gemmy-gems.
