Between Alexander McQueen's bad wolves and Docle & Gabanna's forest creature princesses , it was destined to be a folklore fall. Folklore is a look I first encountered a few years ago in Japan , where there are whole stores devoted to the style. It's a bit of a prairie style mixed with boho elements and woodland creature themes. As the name suggested, think fairy tales. Folklore by fashionmefabulous You can dabble in this trend by wearing one piece with your regular wardrobe, or go all in by mixing and matching different elements of the trend.

One of the cheekier trends to hit the fall runways was purses that look like something other than a purse: see Moschino's fast food containers or Chanel's grocery baskets. I've seen animals , lips , and several cupcakes . becca still wants a purse once featured on Project Runway that looks like a mace. The trend is very pop art, but I'm not a fan. It would have to be something that really enchants me, like a book clutch or a police call box, for me to jump on this bandwagon. Pizza boxes ? No, thank you. I'm not Kelly Kapowski cool . How do you feel about bags that look like something other than bags? What shape would they have to take to draw you into the trend, especially since the trend may not make it to spring?

It's been a while since we've had a Love or Loathe, and I feel the need to get overly opinionated about fashion, particularly about platform heels. An abundance of hideous platforms have been released on the market. Boots, mules, sandals, you name it; there's a platform on it. The pair pictured is one of the lesser evils. With the pink glitter heels , they sort of look like Elton John's casual wear. I find them kind of funny and would never wear them...now. Sixteen-year-old me would be all about these shoes. Part of the reason I ever learned how to walk in heels was because platforms with thick, stable heels were popular when I was in high school. (When I finally convinced becca to watch Buffy the Vampire Slayer , one of the first things she thanked me for was the 90s fashion flashback. All I can think of when I see these chunky platform shoes is Buffy kicking butt in her flared pants, spaghetti strap tops, and butterfly hair clips. Hmm, I just described a letha...
