CHRISTOPHER KANE AQUA SNAP CLUTCH BAGS

Ah, Christopher Kane, you wonderful innovative designer, you. These fluoro-coloured, aqua-filled clutch bags, would send anyone into a nostalgic flashback of the 90's - a decade wear double denim was the done thing, Versace was in it's prime and dressing like a kid's tv show host made you "cool". 

These PVC clutches are reminiscent of that era where, although you may look upon it now and want to curl up into a tight ball and cringe, the tackier you were, the more chic you were too.

The rest of Kane's collection include references to the bags, like a  plain, white shirt where the collar has been substituted for the same material and filling as the bag. These little purses would definitely add a fun statement to an otherwise, more serious outfit. 

90's Vintage Versace Revival

Thanks to Lady Gaga, the jewel patterned clothing of Versace is having another heyday. Gaga has been seen out in many beautiful ensembles recently along with her turquoise hair style du jour.
The mainly primary coloured pattern has been copied for scarves mainly which Urban Outfitters and American Apparel both stock. I bought one from UO which is ten euro cheaper and the scarf is much bigger - i'm a cheapskate at heart.
Despite the terrible Irish summer weather, it's much too warm to wear it as a scarf so I fashion it as a big bow/bandanna on top of my head.
These designs are so pretty, but quite hard to wear so kudos to Gaga, as once again her brave style choices leave her ahead of the pack, daring head to toe of these silk creations.
