I want what Marc Jacobs is drinking

Marc Jacobs was recently in the news for keeping people waiting for the start of his Fashion Week show. Not just a few minutes, mind you; Jacobs' show started TWO HOURS late. Styledash speculates that "Marc's cocktail hour ran a little late, and he just assumed (wrongly) that everyone loved him enough to wait around for his collection."

I can't comment on the collection, but I can say this: it really does appear that Mr. Jacobs has been overindulging in the vodka gimlets. Because I can find NO other explanation for these . . .

Wow. I think those could be cute on my 18 month old or three year old, but me....hmmmm
What is next, a handbag that looks like a teddy bear?

Exactly, Jessica.

And it will cost THREE HUNDRED AND FIFTY DOLLARS.

I will pass on the cat shoes. However, I can not stop thinking about your adorable silver ballet shoes. Please, please, please fill me in on where you got them. You know, to save my sanity.

Sorry, mouse shoes. Either way, my opinion is still the same.

I can only imagine what hard work it would be walking around in those fighting off cat attacks and avoiding mouse traps.

We were mousing around Zappos one day and saw those...and my thirteen year old went, "AWWWWWWW!"

Maybe he's inspired to have those out for mamas who want to dress up for Halloween, but who don't want to overdo it... No, he's just drunk.

Oh. My. I clicked through to Zappos and they also come in white and pony spots.

And two reviewers bought and wear them!

I could see maybe wearing them for Halloween if I was going to a party where everyone would be very drunk, but only if I could get them for under $10.

Gena, the silver ballet flats are made by Diba; I got them recently at DSW.

Take a look at Piperlime, too -- they're having a sale right now. And then remember to price match at Zappos!

I think I actually would wear them, if I could get them for under $25...with jeans or casual slacks. But maybe because I'm still a grad student...However, I would never tell anyone that it was a Jacobs--they would laugh me to scorn for being a brand snob--they just wouldn't understand.

Anonymous, the price tag was actually what threw this into the "holy hell!" category for me. Because for $25.00 or so, meh, they're not me but why not.

But for THREE HUNDRED AND FIFTY DOLLARS, they had best be made of the skin of actual . . . cats? mice? rats? What exactly IS that thing anyway?
