Halloween Apparel

I clearly have Halloween on the brain, so this American Apparel costume contest is just what the fully-licensed physician ordered. The concept is pretty simple–submit a pic of a costume that incorporates an American Apparel item, and you’re in the mix for a $100 online gift certificate. If you don’t want to throw your hat in the ring, you can just browse and rate the entries–this being American Apparel, there are quite a few fine looking ladies and gents to choose from. We’re partial to the lovely but prickly cactus costume above (full disclosure–that’s friend of our blog Mara, who, like her costume, is lovely but prickly), although I’m itching to submit my own Tenebaums-inspired  costume from 2003. None of the elements are actually American Apparel, but are they really going to call CSI in to authenticate the provenance of our track suits?

cause all i see are stilettos…

i guess i never got the memo. miley cirus anyone?  no?

ok.  busy day, but i must take a moment to reflect on these heels that i noticed while watching the Alexander McQueen show from Nick Knight‘s rather wonderful ShowStudio.  they are life changing.  life changing mostly because 99.9% of would-be wearers will tumble to their death.  totally worth it.

i’m pretty jealous of anyone who could pull these off.  my friend Justin Tranter could.  he has had countless 6-inch heels made just for him by Stuart Weitzman, so these seem just his speed.  Justin was on Chelsea Lately recently showing off his heels.

i really want to see these shoes in person and then wear them around my apartment with my thigh-high american apparel socks.  i’ll charge admission.

seriously

no joke
