Fashion Is Fun

StreetPeeper Steps It Up

taylor tomasi on streetpeeper.jpgWe love street style blogs - from Garance, to Scott, to Jak&Jil - and Phil from StreetPeeper just made his even more fun.

He’s added a search feature so that you can enter a name - whether a designer’s, a label’s or an individual’s - to narrow your search and see how real, albeit super stylish, people incorporate Rick Owens and Marchesa into actual wardrobes - not editorials.

And to make things more interesting, he’s starting a new feature in which he recruits some pretty awesome fashion people to pick their favorite looks from the site. First up is Lisa Mayock of Vena Cava who doesn’t just choose the most inspiring, most creative outfits but actually explains what she likes about them and why she wants to be reincarnated as a dude.

Rogan and Kate Lanphear are compiling their lists - so we’d suggest checking in rather frequently.

Adventures in Copyright: For the Love of Alaia

alia oh deer rip off.jpgSo, we’re not the only ones with a major Alaia crush.

Phil, from streetpeeper.com alerted us to a shiny rip-off of one of this season’s most loved heels.

The sexy, swirly, wrapped-around-the-foot Alaia sandal was spotted in almost every front row from New York to Paris, but now it can be yours for a fraction of the original price from Oh Deer! - the shoe company known best for painting the soles of their heels a suspicious shade of signature red.

But, the shoes will still set you back $200, they won’t be worth anything in twenty years, they’re too shiny to wear during the day and you’ll have to walk around knowing that you’re wearing a too-expensive copy of a genius’ original design.

Meanwhile, they ripped off these ones, too. They’re not as exact, but someone in Oh Deer!’s design department’s not feeling particularly creative.
