A Herve Leger Dress...From the Future!

Is it me or does this dress look like it's from the future? I've always been a fan of the way a Herve Leger dress hugs the body - the bandages make the woman look so slimming. But all I can think of when I look at this dress is Battlestar Galactica, Megan Fox and Cyclops in X-Men. What do you think of it?…

A Modern Day Muse: The Girl in the Red Dress

I'm not a crazy fashionista but when I see a picture of someone who has a great sense of style I just have to stop and take notice. Sofia Hedstrom is a correspondent for a Swedish television station. This picture was taken as she was taking a break from the craziness of New York fashion week. The hair, the glasses, the dress, the belt, the bag and the shoes - just a… Continue

Cos-What? Cosplay. If You Know About the Harajuku Girls, You Know About Cosplay.

Oh man, why didn't I find this before Halloween? Cosplay is short for costume play. Basically a movement that started in Japan where people dress up as their favorite comic book/anime/fantasty movie character. Started in the mid 1980s, it's turned into an underground subculture movement where people are expected to meticulously imitate one's character. Recently, with the rise of science fiction/fantasy movies, non-Japanese characters from movies like… Continue
