DIY 'Karl Who?' tote

Photos of my DIY 'Karl Who?' tote I made earlier this summer.
I am obsessed with this runway track for Chanel's 2010 cruise collection.I'm so obsessed, I even have a ringtone version of it.

It was really simple and cost efficient - since I couldn't get my hands on the real thing.I love it! I use it whenever I need a small bag to carry only my necessities. I absolutely hate stuffing my pockets, resulting in oddly shaped pants.

RIP Lee Alexander McQueen

L.A.McQueen

1969-2010

As we all know, legendary designer Alexander McQueen passed away last week. I just wanted to quickly write about how devastating it is to see McQueen go. I loved his work, especially his recent Fall 09 and 2010 women's collections. I do not need to say anymore more about McQueen because his work speaks for itself.

Here is my McQueen inspired attire I wore the day he died. I apologize for the poor quality photo, I snapped a few pictures to twitpic using my iPhone.

Head to toe:

Chanel sunglasses

American Apparel long sleeve t-shirt

Vintage vest

McQueen inspired skull scarf

Black Zara faux fur

“When you see a woman wearing McQueen, there's a certain hardness to the clothes that makes her look powerful.... It kind of fends people off. You have to have a lot of balls to talk to a woman wearing my clothes.”
- Alexander McQueen
