SOMETHING’S FISHY IN METROPOLIS!

 

Seriously?!

Who says you can’t take a fish for a walk? Certainly not Michal Shabtiali, the genius behind this ridiculous portable fishbowl. The shatterproof bowl is designed with a handle for those times when you need to take Goldie out on the town. Okay — Seriously?!  Why on earth would anyone want to do this? You might as well announce to the world that you have no one else to hang out with! And, think of the poor fish with all that jostling around. What if you have to run to hail a cab? Let’s leave the quality outdoor pet walks to our four footed friends and let the fish swim in peace. Since we cannot find a place that sells this brilliant contraption, we are guessing that others agree!

Every few years, the shirt dress experiences a return to the fashion forefront. We think that is because few other items are as versatile, especially during those tricky transitional months. Depending on the fabric, and your choice of accessories, the shirtdress can be preppy, sexy, or even a little edgy. Don’t believe one dress can be all things to all people? Check out these eco fashion finds and see for yourself !

 

 

 

 

 

 

Allison Parris Silk Shirt Dress

 

Oh-so-sexy, this silk shirt dress has a devil-may-care attitude, with its casually shirred sleeves.  The sensuous material simply begs to be touched, as it brushes against the body. Not for the insecure, the asymmetrical hemline shows miles of leg, and should be played up with sky-high heels. Available in patterns or solids.  $300 at 
www.allison parris.com.

WHO WEARS SHORT SHORTS? YOU!

Seriously?!

Okay — we know it’s a bit early, but we wanted to give you a head’s up on a trend that you are going to see everywhere this summer. Ready? Brace yourself! Shorts are back and bigger than ever! By bigger, we don’t mean longer — ohhhh no! This season’s shorts are slouchy, but short.

So sexy and sleek with a great pair of tanned gams. And now, thanks to us, you’ve still got a good three to four months to tone yours. Don’t say we’ve never done anything nice for you! $84 at www.orangorangproject.com(The link doesn’t take you right to the shorts. You’ll need to scroll about halfway down the page.)
