Sweatshirts at Sweatshirt Prices

Mar 03, 2008 @ 1:01pm

sweats.jpgThings we'd love to buy from YSL:


- a le smoking jacket
- the paint-splattered dress Demi wore
- the strappy star heels we know we'll see everywhere come May

We're not, however, interested in paying YSL prices for the sweatshirt Stefano Pilati showed on the Spring '08 runway.

We can't even imagine what his version costs, so we're going to go with the one on the right instead.

It might seem plain, but imagine it with a jewel toned silk mini. Or skin tight black jeans? Layers and layers of chunky necklaces? A crafty appliqué of your own initials instead of Monsieur Laurent's?

Liking it better? We do.

Speaking of gap, the gap on 34th & broadway has items from the European collection in the store to try and buy. No Pierre Hardy shoes yet though.

There's always this:

...which I'm wearing right now. The sheer rib version is the lightest, most perfect shirt I've ever owned.

Eww either way. The only place sweatshirt material belongs is in the gym.

And speaking of bargains, any Barney's Warehouse Sale stories?

That has got to be one of my favorite looks of spring '08.

I laugh at anyone who would pay the monstrous sum of money for that not particularly attractive sweatshirt. That said, I'd love to get the Gap one and do the initial-y thing... haha!

Is it just me or am I hearing the theme to Flashdance in my head?
Please tell me the torn sweatshirt hanging off the shoulder isn't coming back again?! Please!

Ha, the appliqued initials would be amazing. Unless your initials are 'YSL,' in which case... uh, lame-o!
