Crave: Worn Free T-Shirts

vintage T-shirts worn by John Lennon and Debbie Harry

Rock stars always look so cool, in part because most of them don’t seem like they’ve been manufactured by a team of skilled stylists, hairdressers, and makeup artists the way actors and actresses do. There’s an effortlessness about rockers’ clothes, even when all they’re wearing are old jeans and a grungy T-shirt (and even if they’ve spent hours getting ready and hundreds on the perfectly distressed vintage leather jacket). Worn Free can make you look like Debbie Harry, John Lennon, or Joan Jett, at least in the T-shirt department, because they’ve resurrected shirts worn by these musicians and more. Too bad wearing one won’t improve your guitar playing. [$39.95 and up, WornFree.com]

We’re giving away five Worn Free T-shirts, but you have to work if you want to look like a rock god. The five best commenters for this coming week—from today, Friday, March 27 through Thursday, April 2—will be awarded with one. So, be as clever, smart, and original as you can!

Hot Footballer Flounces Around In Store Window Display For All To See

Andrea Vasa

Andrea Vasa, a 30-year-old hot football—in other words soccer—player for Milan’s Brera team, is living in Dirk Bikkembergs, a high-end Italian store, parading around half-naked, lifting weights, and lolling about for anyone who happens to look in the windows. “Among the shelves and clothes hangers exposing the items that are for sale, Andrea’s personal clothes can be found, as well as the pictures and books he chose to take with him to his new home.” He’s got his own housekeeper and can invite over whomever he likes, but what if he wants to leave? “Before going out, Andrea will take a shower in a relax room papered with pages from Gazzetta dello Sport, compose his outfit for the following occasion, preen himself in one of the silver trophies, step into his Porsche and drive it out through a massive window that doubles as a garage door.” Fascinating! Too bad, Towleroad notes, the shower is the only part of the live-in scene that’s shielded from public view.

United Jimmies Of Benetton

United Colors Of Benetton Designer Condoms

Fashion designers and houses love to have their labels plastered on billboards, T-shirts, and handbags. But who knew something as simple as a wrapper could get the fashion world’s attention. United Colors of Benetton joins Alexander Wang, Yigal Azrouël, and Marc Jacobs in the lengthening line of fashion brands that have released condoms. The Benetton condoms are made in Japan by Okamoto Industries, which also manufactures Beyond Seven condoms and automotive interior material. The condoms, which sell for $15.50 for 12, only come in pink and green—not quite all of the united colors, but the wrappers are kind of cute and not sexually explicit. I’m still not sure what batteries have to do with condoms, but maybe the message is that sex with a condom is everlasting and energizing. This designer condom trend may create a niche group of collectors ...

Fashion Slideshow: Dress To Perfection

Spring Dress

Ecote Knit Print Halter Dress, $58, Urban Outfitters

Dresses are the easiest clothing to wear when the temperature heats up because all you need to add are jewelry, shoes, and a handbag. This spring and summer pretty much any dress style goes, but look for bohemian patterns, bright colors, and light fabrics.

A New Online Store For Sequined ‘80s Tops And Full Skirts From The ‘50s

vintage clothes

1950s Black and White Full Circle Party Dress, $188

We love vintage clothes as much as the next stylish frugal girl, so we’re psyched about the newly launched Market Publique. Sure, there are other places where you can buy old clothes online. Etsy and eBay both have loads of users selling vintage, but sometimes we get sick of sorting through mis-categorized listings. While there isn’t a ton of stuff on Market Publique yet, we think we’ll make frequent stops whenever we’re cyber shopping. [Market Publique via Refinery29]

Would You Rock Mini-Shorts?

Amanda Bynes

Psst. Hey. Hey, you. Yeah, you. Amanda. Amanda Bynes. I wanted to tell you know something. Your butt? You know, your banana roll, as they call it? Falling out the back for your shorts? That’s not workin’. I mean, it’s your butt. The bottom of your butt. And we’re all looking at it. Sure, sure. You were just jumping out of your car “for a minute” to grab some magazines at that newsstand. Really, though, that’s still a major TMI fashion faux pas you got there. And we have to imagine you noticed that fleet of paps following you, and you’re well aware that they’re standing there waiting for your behind to fall out of those crack-splitters so they can get a shot. So, why? Why parade your rear for all to see? Do you want to be the next Britney? Because we know where she ended up after all those flashes. Bald and institutionalized. What about you, ladies? Would you rock these booty shorts in public?

I Wanna Dress Like: The Morton Salt Umbrella Girl

Morton Salt Umbrella Girl

Fashion inspiration can come at the strangest of times, like when you’re reaching for a container of salt in your cupboard. The Morton Salt Umbrella Girl has been around since 1914, however her outfit got considerably cuter in 1968. With her flowy shirt dress, mary jane flats, and, most importantly, adorable bobbed hair, the Umbrella Girl is perfectly dressed for spring. I want to be her so badly I even cut my hair off so it looks like hers, only with bangs. Too bad mine doesn’t look as good as hers does when it’s pouring.

Feeling Knotty Jewelry And Accessories

knot necklace

Erica Weiner Pretzel Knot Necklace, $30, EricaWeiner.com

Spring’s almost here, which means it’s time for shirts with horizontal stripes, boat shoes, and other nautical-inspired clothes fit for Nantucket. This year, it’s all about knotted rope—whether on shoes, necklaces, or belts. If you want to fit in on the dock this year, you’d better tie one on. And if you don’t want to spend much dough accessorizing, just find a length of rope, tie a few artful bowllines, and voilà! you have a necklace.

Fashion Slideshow: Gym Shoes That Aren’t Puke-Worthy

Cute Gym Shoes

Much as we love high heels, commuting in four-inch pumps isn’t the best move. It hurts your feet and back, ruins your fancy shoes, and slows down the already painful getting-to-work process.

Leighton Meester’s retro Reebok collaboration sneakers are leaking all over the internet and they’re got us thinking about gym shoes that don’t make us sick to our stomachs. The sort of gym shoes we might even deign to wear in public.

Alexander McQueen: From Wacky To Wearable

Alexander McQueen Fall 2009

Did you say you wanted a dress with a little embellishment?; Katie Holmes

Most of what designers send down the runway is not meant to be worn so literally out on the street. When showing their collections, designers wants to put on a SHOW, and then consumers can style the items to their liking when they buy them off the rack. This is especially true of crazy couture designers like Alexander McQueen, who showed his Fall 2009 Ready To Wear collection yesterday in Paris. The man is a genius, but it’s often hard to imagine that he creates clothing that’s, uh, meant to be worn in real life, not in some creepy nightmare. We juxtapose images from his kooky, somewhat disturbing black, white, and red-themed Fall ‘09 collection (seriously, you might have nightmares), against some of the gorgeous wares his celebrity fans have worn.

Slideshow: Shoes So Ugly They Should Be Banned

I’m forced to look at ugly shoes every day. I see them walking down the street, sitting down to eat, in class and at the gym. And while the experience is always harrowing, I’m often able to calm down by reminding myself that I probably won’t come across those red patent platforms with their gold laces and faux fur again. Sometimes though, I find no such comfort, knowing all too well that the hideous footwear I’m witnessing is a full-blown trend and won’t be going anywhere any time soon. Because misery loves company, here are seven ugly shoes that should have never, ever been designed…

Fashion Slideshow: Caftan-tastic

Caftans

Tracy Reese Embellished Peasant Caftan, $260, eLuxury

A caftan is one of the most multi-functional items of clothing because you can wear it as a dress, swimsuit cover-up, or loungewear. People will think you bought yours in some exotic, far away land, but all you really had to do was click your mouth a couple of times. Sweet!

Stop Staring At Me With Your Giant Eyeball Head

Eye Fashion

Here’s looking at you, kid. This model wasn’t crying when she paraded down the runway during Milan Fashion Week wearing this surrealist-psycho ensemble designed by Madrid’s Agatha Ruiz de la Prada—or, heck, was she? It’s impossible to tell with that giant eyeball she’s wearing on her head. Who knew cyclopses were the new black? And if that skirt’s not sexual, I don’t know what it is. Or, you know, maybe that’s just me. Of course, this frock wasn’t the only crazy creation the Spanish designer concocted for her Fall/Winter 2009 line. There’s the baguette hat, the trapped-in-a-birdcage exoskeleton, Rainbow Brite Chewbacca, and, I don’t know, this chick just looks like a hedge. [China Daily]

Hollywood Stars Light Up Milan

Eva Mendes at Dolce & Gabbana

Fashion Week Month is nearly over, and while there weren’t many A-listers at New York Fashion Week this season, the stars cleared their schedules for Milan Fashion Week (free trip to Italy!). Earlier today, Milan-time, some of our favorite gals showed up at the Dolce & Gabbana show in chic duds. Eva Mendes, will you be our friend?

The only thing I love more than Eva Mendes is Eva wearing my favorite color.

Would You Rock Chainmail Stockings?

Gold Legs

Chainmail stockings, anyone? This outrageous, avant-garde leg-wear was created by Queens-based fashion designer and stylist LaQuan Smith, who is all of 20 years old and designs a line called LaQueue. Honestly, I’m not totally sure what these stockings are made out of or how they work exactly (I mean, how do they stay up, for starters, metal garters?), but I do know they’re mighty cool, and they sure look like they’re run-proof. Love them with the matchy-matchy shoes, but if you really wanted to take the modern-day postfeminist gladiator look to the gold hilt, you could pair them with the gold metal dress that matches. So, would you rock them? [Paint it Noir]
