Victoria Beckham’s Monochromatic March

She Fought The Battle Against Color and Gray Won

This is why we totally heart Victoria Beckham:

Who else but the former Spice Girl travels looking like the world’s most glamorous East German border guard slash Karl Lagerfeld’s limousine driver?  It’s part of her magical fashion powers that enable her to pull off a  head-to-toe dove gray ensemble, including an absolutely drool-worthy pair of YSL pumps,  that would render us mere mortals looking like a somewhat mad woman in a glorified (but very, very expensive) bathrobe.  Oh, Posh.  We just want to clasp her size-0 frame in our arms in joy. In an endless sea of celebs in leggings and slumpy, dumpy Uggs, she is our anchor.  Our joie de vive.  The reason we spend a small fortune on Elle, Vogue and Harper’s Bazaar every month.  She had us at “It’s MAY-JAH.”

Get the look of Vic’s fierce footwear in these gorgeous suede ‘Tanya” pumps from Brian Atwood.

Mary Kate Olsen Debuts Elizabeth & James Shoes

Mini Moguls Prepare For World Domination, One Fashion Line At A Time

Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen are set to conquer the fashion world from head-to-toe.  Which, when you think of the Homeless Dumpster Diving Chic looks they pass off as fashion is pretty amusing.  Belted caftan! Fedora! Ginormous jacket! LAYERS UPON LAYERS of dollar-a-pound vintage!  We went along that twins played Michelle Tanner and Uncle Jesse was a talented rocker and not a hammie Elvis rip-off but we can only suspend so much belief.  Honestly, looking like you have to panhandle for spare change is more eek than eccentric, we don’t care what the fashion magazines say.  Anna Wintour and company think in these Serious Economic Times that a $500 cardigan is down-scale dressing so clearly their views are more than a bit wonky.

Their questionable sartorial styling aside, MK and Ashley have great taste in funky footwear.  The disconnect between what they put on their bodies and what they put on their feet is vexing.  We are truly vexed.  Known for their outrageous taste in shoes, from sky-high gladiator sandals to trendy peep-toe booties, the tiny titans are set to launch a footwear collection in collaboration with Steve Madden under the Elizabeth and James label.

Expected to retail from $195 to $500, the line is expected to debut this March, but Mary Kate offered a sneak peek during Fashion Week, modeling their take on an ankle booties, a black suede wedge heel with a deep side cut-out.  They’re totally cute with an unexpected twist that doesn’t tread into “did you forget to take your meds?” territory.  Perfect for those of us mere mortals who can’t quite manage the -rolled-out-of-bed-into-an-instant-state-of-awesomeness but can appreciate a fab shoe, like these Steve Madden ‘Bombb’ heels, to help fake it.
