Seducer or Madman?

Chanel Spring 2011 style.com

I giggle thinking about my beefcake/man's man boyfriend who is devoted to jeans and tee shirts in this Chanel Spring 2011 look. This look is editorialized in January magazines and it cracks me up every time I see it.

Inspiration for this season comes from Last Year in Marienbad which I haven't seen, but from the trailer, is chalk full of 1960's film noir goodness that is right up a fashion designer's alley: lots of visual, stimulating images. A line in the movie asks if the main character is "a madman or seducer?" Karl is usually a seducer in my opinion but this one has me leaning towards madman.

A white four pocket Chanel jacket for me. Lovely.
For my man... questionable. Very questionable. (unless that man is my gay best friend.)
For my 5 year old son. Not over my dead body.

What do you think?

If I were a boy...

.. I would wear Figs neck wear. Last week my friend Jodi asked about where to get a polka dot bow tie and now I have the perfect answer. LA based Figs creates very cool fabric and prints for ties and bow ties. Who doesn't swoon over a well dressed man? Custom pieces are available for a reasonable price. The best part is that for every piece sold, Figs gives a school uniform to a African child in need.

Check it out! They guarantee 100% awesomeness.
