Spring 2011 - Denim DO or Denim DON'T?

Denim denim denim, what will we do with it when everyone's brain is embedded with 80's bedazzled denim or full on denim outfits from the 90`s that make people cringe and shy away. Well there is light at the end of the tunnel not that anyone would care because they have just avoided it unless it was a pair of jeans...butttttt if you really want to stay trendy this Spring...you will need at least one or 2 of these pieces to add to your collection. Now it seems like a tough thing to do but I'm sure if Mr. Louboutin could sport this trend in his Spring 2011 shoe collection... I`m prettttty sure you could do it too :)

A denim wedge or sandal is a playful way to include this trend in your spring collection - its casual, its flirty and is easily paired with any color of the rainbow, the same way a denim pair of jeans would - good basic to include! This Denim swim suit is really hottt right now - check it out in the Mercedes Benz Swim Suit Guide!

Jeggings (aka extremely stretchy jeans - jean/leggings) are reallllly hot right now - why???? Because they are soooo comfortable and thicker than legging fabric to avoid showing all the beautiful cellulite that us gorgeous women are blessed with....

These are some of the Spring 2011 denim trends that should be scaring you away! Oversized, boring and doubled! Why do these designers think these pcs would sell for their insanely high prices???? They are sooooo unflattering and if I see this on anyone in Manhattan, I swear I will buy a bucket of paint and throw it on them..hideous!!!

[SASSY MINX] TALK - "TRENDS I HATE" RUBBER

[SASSY MINX] I have never seen so many rubbers on the street until I moved to NYC! And NO I'm notttt talking about condoms! I am seeing too many rubber, rain/hunter boots - WHATEVER you want to call them...Again with the hunting gear - Referring back to my TRAPPER TREND.


I understand it's rainy sometimes and many people walk but there are so many nice, winterized or waterproof boots out there...why choose the ugly cheap looking ones? Not only do they look cheap but the high end retailers and designers are selling them BRANDED for an arm and a leg...they probably paid a big 2$ for these boots in china and are laughing their way to the bank as people rush in to buy them for hundreds of dollars (ex: Valentino for $295)


The worst part is that I cannot get away from them - I am seeing them so much that I almost bought a pair! Sickening! They have become trendy and are worn on NON- rainy days...eww..I can accept the rainy days because God knows I hate wet feet but please if there is no rain - DO NOT WEAR THEM!
When I was 10 and used to visit my aunt's farm, she would wear those big ugly rain boots to avoid stepping in cow dung and NOW you want me to wear these as a fashion statement? What is next???

Now some of these pieces are standard but the ones by Versace and Cheap Monday are pretty enticing. YES, Versace considers these to be rainboots LOL. I included the Versace ones to reference back to my "TREND ALERT" Peek-a-boo - completely useless to be considered a rain boot but at least its sexy! Cheap Monday has done a mighty fine job of designing a trendy rain boot but I can only imagine the dirt and gross stuff that would get stuck in there from slipping them on and off. Hot runway piece but not usefull...Too bad!
