So it's true? Have we really seen the jumpsuit so many times now that it's officially a THING? I thought we agreed that this was never, ever supposed to happen.

OMG! The Tins got BANGS! Like, is that not the biggest fashion story here? And, like, she is totally doing only the half-curl on her hair right now, and OMFG, her toenails are so rad and matching her dress!! To die for, totally!

My company catered this event last night, and these pics only hint at the insanity. Every time the lady with pink leggings came by, I forgot that she was actually wearing pants. Young money are so crazy!

Milla looked even more fabulous in person. That woman is seriously stunning.

Sadie, did you just use "Anne V's YSL-style ecru onesie" in a positive context? I think we are going to have to agree to disagree. That ecru onesie looks like a soft, bland sensory deprivation chamber for torturing prisoners into revealing their jumpsuit crimes. I cannot look at it without having The Disapprobation.

If your leggings are nude, you cannot wear them as pants! We have to draw the line somewhere!

As Pants - 3

Sparkles + 4

Oh, so sorry. You scored a -4. You'll have to find something else to wear. Try again tomorrow!

This looks substantially less fun than I would expect a Museum of Natural History dance to be. Not one person dressed as a pterodactyl? Or an amoeba? COME ON!

Dear Museum of Natural History,

If you're having these enormous gala fundraisers, how about using some of that money to allow us plebians to get into your new exhibits for free rather than charging us once to get in the Museum and then for every exhibit under 20 years old? This could also be fixed if you paid your president $627,000/year PLUS apartment PLUS maids/driver/etc.

@jeepgirl...put a brarawn to go four-wheelin': And I get into all museums for free (I work in a museum, so we have a reciprocal thing going on), and I STILL have to pay for their special exhibits. Don't get me wrong, I know that comes across as akin to complaining about one's diamond shoes being too tight, but I think the larger point is the ones who make these policies being quite stingy even with cultural colleagues.

What exactly suggests "inherited" regarding the stole?

Also, in defense of unbridled fur hatred: it may seem "less cruel" to wear a vintage piece, but you still perpetuate the style by wearing it at all. The only people who should be wearing furs are the homeless (great program- [consciouschoice.com] ), and the non-people the fur belongs to!

I have thought about this as well. Do you feel the same way about faux leather?

@LaComtesse: Ahh, faux leather..fun with vinyl. I do think mooshoes is a great company, though. I say the difference (perhaps?) lies in whether you can tell that it's fake. That's vague; I guess I mean, for some reason I don't get stabby when I see people wearing what is obviously fake fur. Which in itself is perpetuating the style of fur- but not fur itself, I suppose, and that's the point: real fur (very very likely) came from a fur farm at some point, and that is completely, purely unacceptable. However...

@LittleBlackFly: ...I definitely realize the whole "fur is murder!!1!" argument is not black and white. Donning a vintage, reused fur is, of course, better for the animals than ordering a totally new one to be manufactured, for obvious reasons. But personally, I don't value my own temporary comfort over the lives of so many helpless, abused animals. I'll layer my cotton and polyester coats til I look like blueberry-blowup Veruca Salt/"I can't put my arms down" little brother from A Christmas Story before I decide that wearing fur is worth it*.

*to ME, because I think this issue is arguably one that people should educate themselves on and make their own decisions based on their OWN morals.

WHEW.

@graciousplum: I'm with you. Fur sucks. I have talked about this another thread - my Mom gave me a leather jacket that had been hers since HS. I loved that it was inherited but I'd never wear it, so I passed it on to a friend.

@LvV: Yeah, I agree that kinda kills it. I stared at it awhile, trying to figure out if those were all boot, or really tall stockings tucked into some form of shoe. When you have to think about it that hard, it's probably not a good look.
