Fashion News Round Up - Awful Spoof of Becks Armani Ad, Beauty for Boys, and Lincoln's Rain Coat

It's the Funhouse Comics

MAYBELLINE FOR MEN?

Telegraph- A survey reveals that one in every ten men use their lady's make-up and products.  Tweezers are borrowed the most often, followed by moisturizers and then other miscellaneous beauty gadgets.

There are somethings I don't mind sharing with my boyfriend.  I introduced him to my Mario Badescu Drying Lotion for pimples. I think everyone should know about it because its by far the best zit zapper I've ever used. He now asks me to buy "more of that pink stuff."

Things I don't want to share: my tweezers.  Can you believe he was sticking my Tweezerman up his nose to pull out hair? Ew.  I bought a new set and said "If you touch them I will punch you in the scrotum." As far as I know, he hasn't used it, but if I catch him....

 

THIS IS NOT FUNNY

Copyranter- The Seoul Advertising Agency Diamond Ogilvy decided to "parody"the above ad of David Beckham for  Emporio Armani underwear. Becks holds a phallic rope while all greased up. The problem with the little joke? Its an ad for GoodNites, the diaper for toddlers who are toilet training.

Okay, so they thought it would be cute, but they even oiled the kid for f*cks sake! Doesn't any one think things through before they just put these things out there for every basement dwelling weirdo with a computer to see? You have to click to see the ad. I don't even want to post it here. Seriously. After seeing it,  I got same stomach turning feeling  that I get when I see the commercials for that  TV show "Toddlers in Tiaras."

 

UNDER THE WEATHER

Huffington Post - Weatherproof took some flack over their unauthorized ads featuring President Obama. They decided planting the face of the leader of the free world world on an ad for rain jackets worked so well, that now they went ahead and used Abraham Lincoln in the follow up.

No, really, if Lincoln was alive today, he'd totally be down with it. He was so totally, like, liberal that way.

Whats worse is that the company offered up the next go around to a certain moose-hunting, blind to grade school social studies, lipstick-wearing pit bull.  Sarah Palin? You betcha! But, concentrating on her new gig at Fox News, Palin's attorneys declined the offer.

The Moment - The fashion world continues to follow around Tavi, the thirteen year old fashion blogger. Where was she spotted now?  The blue-haired preteen was at the Christian Dior Show in Paris, complete with a giant bow hat.  The hat was given to her by a milliner who made the piece for a Dior show. The giant bow never got used, so she thought it was only appropriate to wear it there.

Isn't that just sweet?  What does this chick have that I don't besides youth, wealthy parents and fashion industry notoriety? Where was my ticket? I can totally make necklaces out of macaroni--not the unhealthy white kind, but the whole grain kind.  Want me to wear a cape? Okay done.  My hair is blue gray naturally before I color it.  I can still fit in my Culture Club tee from the 80's. ( Wearing it now is considered ironic int he cool way now.) Maybe a trash bag skirt inspired by Louis Vuitton runway? With all those pieces combined into one get-up, Im just as zany as her. Or crazy...but I believe we use the term "eccentric" for people that dress like that at fashion shows.

Just tell me. I'll totally do it.
