Summer rec is over. I have one week left of work, and I won't be with the same kids and it won't really be the same at all. I already miss my kids, even though they could be demons at times (especially last week). I certainly won't be missing Brian; I hope I never see that creepy loser ever again. Hopefully Liz will think better of hiring him next year, particularly after that time he shoved Noah. So, one more week of work and then my sisters and I might go to Kansas City to shop and stuff. I just did a bit of back-to-school shopping but I really need more pants. Pants are my least favorite thing to go shopping for because I'm short and nothing fits. I really want some corduroy pants, though.
No one probably cares, but I feel the need to discuss the spring 2005 menswear collections.
The Good:
-I like Viktor&Rolf Monsieur. It has a great casual but pulled together look.
-YSL Rive Gauche is great; I love the shape of the jackets. I'm not sure why, but this briefs + long-sleeved shirt combo is enthralling to me. I can't look away! Also, this suit is seriously hot. Mmm.
-I like the skinny pants and scarves from Christian Dior, but the models all look like a slight gust of wind would knock them over.
-Paul Smith's schoolboy look is cute. I like this layering, as well. I'm kind of 'meh' on the florals, though.
The Bad:
-Not big on the hippie thing from Gucci, really.
-I'm also not a fan of the loose pants and the stupid hats from Emporio Armani.
-I respect Dries Van Noten for trying to popularize the kilt, but there is a thing as too much plaid.
-Dsqaured's collection just oozed skankiness to me. And then Christina Aguilera showed up, heh.
-God, I love John Galliano. Wouldn't it be great if more guys dressed like this? Or this? Hee. I can see, in some of the outfits, the pieces that you could actually wear, but some of them are just kind of WTF?
I am so bored right now. Bored enough for random icon-making, if anyone wants some. I'm actually kind of looking forward to school starting. Kind of.

haute couture?
