Friday

summer friday: fashionable [?] signs of the apocalypse

One of my dear web-friends tweeted something the other day that literally made me LOL:
SIGNS OF THE APOCALYPSE: OVERALLS ARE BACK
SHUDDER! I get it, what comes around goes around, what's old is new again... but these babies are making their way back in some scary incarnations. I mean, do they have to be so literal?


Or so trying-too-hard-to-be-cool?

JEAN PAUL GAULTIER

Who wants to wear a full-on denim bodysuit these days, anyway? There's got to be a way to make this modern, chic, and classic.

Then, the clouds parted--and I saw Vena Cava's Resort 2011 collection.
I'm totally feeling their simple, beachy, and understated overall-inspired looks. This is the answer to this trend...something I can really get behind!


The black, slouchy look is perfect--so much cleaner than chunky denim--and versatile, too.


Suddenly, I don't feel as scared--as long as other designers and retailers follow suit.

What do you think?
