As Seen On TV Fashion : Selective Boob Display, Bruce's Cooling Bandanna and More!

CAMI SECRET

Since the Dickie has fallen out of fashion, its time for a new modern version. Enter Cami Secrets! I saw this commercial last night and was not at all tempted to buy, for I was too busy staring at this woman's jiggling jugs.

See, the boob o'meter warning scale as this commercial points out, is high, medium, and low. Creepy boss and cheap date, you get none, thanks to the "secret" stuffed in this lady's top like a napkin at a dinner party.

I'm not sure when a kelly green synthetic fabric top is ever in fashion, but "its just not right" at the office. The Cami Secret clips to your bra, which is apparently easier than tugging at your shirt all day.

Or you could just wear proper office attire.

 

THE ARCTIC TIE

Yes, the August heat can be so brutal, especially here in New York City. What to do? Channel your inner cow girl!

How this product works: soak the Arctic Tie in cold water for 20 minutes. Then "magic" crystals hold the cooling coolness for like-- well it doesn't say. But it absorbs up to 10x the amount of water than any old towel you'd wrap around your neck and you can do it with style!

Its like an Arctic chill built into Bruce Springsteen's "Born in the U.S.A." bandanna. Wow.

 

THE PERFECT FIT BUTTON

Can't crack down on the KFC double downs? Are you not worried about the camel toe that will show is you still try to stuff yourself into too tight jeans like an over-packed suitcase? Would you rather not spend money on buying your kid new pants, though he looks like he woke up as Tom Hanks in "Big"? Then this product is for you.

Since sewing a button is seeewwww hard (heh) just add one of these fake buttons on to your pants and commence the squeezing!

But wait, there's more! You get some sort of shoe box too if you order now.

 

YUDU

"Settling for run-of-the-mill t-shirts that don’t express the real you?" Celebrities are not the only ones that can have their own brands these days. Not with the Yudu (get it you-do?)  Its your own personal silk screen machine that you can use in your kitchen. Great for teens that can't get enough of Facebook bullying.  If you think "Sasha is slutty slut bag" then put it on a t-shirt for you and all of your friends.

Do you love sharing every aspect of your life, but are finding that posting Twitter and status updates are not getting a far enough reach?  Well, wear it on your sleeve, literally! "Billy Doesn't Want to Live in a Nanny State." Ah, no he doesn't!

Perfect for every political, religious and moral view point you want to share. I mean, who shouldn't have their own screen printer, right?

Spring 2011 Fashion Week: Men's Designers to Watch

My official Mercedes Benz Fashion Week accreditation is still pending, as it seems the Lincoln Center move is also an excuse to be more selective. Regardless, with all the off-site and independent shows going on, I'm still planning on bringing some coverage whether I'm cool enough for another season with an "official" lanyard. So, with out further commentary here is what I want to see for Spring 2011--though fall 2010 is just hitting stores now.

 

MIK CIRE BY ERIC KIM

Mik Cire by Eric Kim blew me away with the fall collection. There was something so smooth and effortlessly cool about his men's collection. Kim, who's also the  former CEO of Monarchy, launched last fall with leather spats, knit hats and button down shirts with East Village cowboy vibe.

I can't wait to see what this innovative menswear designer will send down the runway for next Spring. Just a note for Eric Kim, more leather spats!

SIMON SPURR

With some pretty powerful names on his resume, including Yves St. Laurent and CK Calvin Klein, Simon Spurr launched in 2006. This past fall he showcased some very sleek menswear and made it okay for men to wear red and purple. Trench coats with a dropped waist, classic three piece suits and a hint of color, here's to hoping to see more gentlemen on the runway this spring.

BILLY REID

Launched in 1998, Billy Reid was welcomed with praise. In 2001, Billy won the prestigious CFDA Perry Ellis award. Though due to economic difficulties he was forced to shutter his business. Though, in 2004 he came back with a very personal aesthetic in which he refers to as " American, classic, sturdy, heirloom, Southern."

Though, piece by piece, his collection is full of basics that fit any guy's style.  These tough, ultra cool tall boots are among my favorite pieces from the fall 2010 collection. And I'm not alone in the appreciation of Reid's collection. He made into the top ten designers to be part of the CFDA Fashion Fund.
