yesterday i saw blue valentine. finally. and it was great and sad and stuff. ryan gosling is really spectacular. and for a large portion of the film, he wears an eagle sweatshirt. which i CAN'T find a picture of! what gives, the internet?!
anyways. it (the eagle sweater) reminded me that i love shirts with hilarious animal portraits on them. like most things brett wears in flight of the conchords.
AND! like this dog sweater from the balenciaga pre-fall collection!
but that's not all that's awesome in that collection. no. there is much goodness. look!
i would like to be this girl. (maybe with a little less eye makeup. for me.) i love twisted leopard print. it's GREEEEEN! that's great.
like the green above, here i'm all pumped and whatnot about the RED! great colour, balenciaga. thank you!
and, of course, the magic of pattern-on-pattern-(on-patterned-backdrop).
mittens.
and again, i just want to be her.

This might be a photo but that might be a duck. http://screencrave.com/2010-12-28/interview-derek-cianfrance-on-his-12-year-project-blue-valentine/
Animal prints often look peculiar because they are most accurate with a "flat" body like the models and get distorted on people who have, ahem, humps in different places. And then some people don't correlate with certain animals.
Fashion isn't universal but prints do compel wearers to pick the animal(s) they seem to have a visible resonance with. I think animal shirts and hidden psyche might be a novel subject for clinical study and dissertation!?
Red coat, tiger striped bag, or is it caterpillar stripes?
