Feline Seduction

Feline seduction is probably a terrible title for this entry- not to be crude, but it kind of sounds like a porno.... Bahhhhhhhh! Forget I said that. Hahahaha. This was not a stroke of genius, but, who is there to criticize me? Nobody reads my blog! Hum dee dum.

I was browsing shopbop.com and I discovered this jumpsuit. I'm not really sure how to transfer its aura into words. I'm a huge back-in-the-day DC Comics enthusiast. Batman is unconditionally my favorite comic of all time, however my fandom belongs to his dweeby but trusty sidekick Robin. Robin has it going on for a sidekick who wears green tights. Anyway, Batman has his fair share of villains such as the infamous the Joker, the Penguin, Poison Ivy, Two-Face, the Riddler, and of course the unforgettable, Catwoman. She was the devil's candy. An evil indulgence but a reigning sex-symbol as well as Batman's foe. Let's face it, Catwoman was seductive in that the bad-girl is always appealing. In each comic that she was present in she was always clad in a skin tight black jumpsuit that bared hardly any skin, but still managed to show it all. And, while online shopping this whole Catwoman thinggg presented itself through this jumpsuit:

It's less risqué than Catwoman's attire therefore it's more than OK to wear it in public. The designer is "ACNEE" which is an acronym for something-or-other, haha it slipped my mind, but it's a designer from Sweden. I love the whole feline, wild/untamed look. It's fun. And wearing an incredible jumpsuit like this one would make it impossible for you not to feel good about yourself.

Other Catwoman-esque items:

These leggings are superb. I would chop my left leg off to get my hands on these. But then again, if I only had 1 leg, I wouldn't really need these. I just need hmm... 1,000 more dollars. No.big.deal.

Stuart Weitzman... how do you do it?

And, of course, how could I not include the ultra-hip and of-the-moment accessory? Cat eye glasses. Yumm. Extraordinary, eh? Kudos to Alexander Wang!

Obsession's ARE Healthy!

The majority of people label their obsessions as "unhealthy"... but when it's a new pair of sneakers that you've been coveting since mid-winter, then no way in hell is it unhealthy. Before you start making wrong judgements and assumptions about these fab. kicks I'll explain to you the incredible fashion sensation that has overtaken, well... myself. There really isn't that much to explain besides that sneakers are far from manly and athletic looking. They're hard-core accessories that can transform any boring outfit into mouth-watering style. That probably made no sense and it probably also sounded really stupid. I'm so sorry. I HAVE HAD THE WORST FREAKING MENTAL BLOCK FOR THE PAST 2 DAYS. I have a dozen half written blog entries saved in my drafts from the last 48 hours. It's maddening and they all turned out really lame, so I started over and then that one ended up turning into a nightmare and so on. It's July- my brain's dysfunctional. Blah blah blah. I won't bore you with my troubles. Anyway back to the phenomenon of sneakers: Sneakers are kick-ass and hawttt. A jamming pair of tennis shoes paired with an electrifying cocktail dress looks is an ensemble that would add a little bit of sanity to this absurd world. AHHH! I just had thee greatest mental image; a hoard of confident, intimidatingly powerful and attractive women who possess that sort of "vampire-y" beauty all clad in Alexander McQueen (RIP) cocktail dresses from his resort 2009 collection. (One of his most refined, but absolutely positively incredible collections. It had a taste of the 1920's, my favorite fashion era.) I believe Mr. McQueen intended the theme to be partying classic Hollywood style. I cannot explain my adoration for that man enough. OhmyDAMN. I got off topic...! Anyway, these are the magnificent dresses in their entirety. Curse my fabulously unrealistic daydreams.

And at LAST. My sneakers. They're vintage looking slip on VANS. The laces on the front and the crease marks are all printed on. These are seriously the SHIT.

I will be posting more once I regain a decent sense of how to write something that might actually entertain people.

Bye! ♔♕

Hi

If this were any other "fashion blog" then I'd probably start off with some lame saying in French or any other romantic language. And then I might toss some statements at you that are complete lies about my love for fashion started at a young age. I'd probably make you think that I'm different by saying that I hate Abercrombie and Hollister and I loathe everything mainstream. Then I'd rant about how being different is in style and how everything mainstream is for sluts. This would be the part where I'd come up with a funny one-liner and tell you my name and a little bit about myself which would normally be complete bullshit. If you're lucky I might even add a picture at the end of myself with more make up than usual on my face and an outfit that I would never usually wear. Or if I'm too intimidated by creepy stalkers on the internet and the whopping population of 0 people that will read my blog, I'd say something like "Karl Lagerfeld is a creative genius. I love his Fall 2011 collection!" and post a picture of a half dead looking woman wearing one of his pieces. And finally, to sum this whole big thing of bullshit up I'd most likely say "ciao", or "au revoir". Because, let's face it, I'm obviously reallycool!

If that paragraph of bull shit is what you (whoever you may be) are looking for, then you can kindly exit now and I promise my feelings will still be in tact. But if the reason you happened to stumble upon this blog is because you're craving something tangible, something real, in this virtual fashion world of bull shit and nonsense then stay put and do yourself a favor by following this blog.

Everybody I know calls me Aimee, so you can call me that too. My blog's name is Cupcakes on Sunday but abso-fucking-nobody is probably going to see this post so if you are the one person who happens to read this, you can refer to my blog as anything you want! Luck you! I like dressing like a person with a brain and not just a person with a body. I like wearing well-made clothes that don't advertise names or brands but make people do a double take if they see me in public. If I were given $5,000 to spend on clothes I would splurge on vintage sneakers and just sneakers in general. (But not the yucky athletic ones that are all sketchers and shit. The legitsneakers: Lanvin, Veja, Gucci, Chuck Taylor, etc.) Mainstream fads are not a turnoff for me. Ke$ha is one of my big icons. I like to juxtapose a lot of the garments I own to create kick ass outfits. "Preppy" dresses and distressed converse, Ralph Lauren Oxfords with destroyed jeans, prim high heels with a band tee, etc.,etc. Basically I'm here for your enjoyment and to help you out in whatever fashion-type rut you may be stuck in. Let's get started, shall we?

(Note: This Isn't me. I'm nowhere near the freaking awesomeness that this chick has acheived)
