Questionable Designer Accessories #1 - Why Did They Decide to Put Their Logo on This?

[33EP]

those little anklets remind me of electronic bracelets we put on criminals...maybe this is a step in the direction of "fashionable" probation for the rich and famous?!

 

[DandyWarhol]

i dont think i'd want a doll of an old man in my room.
even if it is karl lagerfeld.

^you can eat gold!?

a bit OT: what does it taste like?

the restaurant itself looks quite nice imo

A lot of chefs use gold leaf in deserts and stuff. It's really really thin.

 

[Dkammern]

^^and doesnt taste much... there's a spanish company that manufactures this gold leaves and they also do stuff like chanpagne with "gold dust" and stuff... absolutly pointless, but i must say it looked great in contrast with dark chocolate.

i also tried, long time ago, golden hazelnuts (aka plain nuts covered in gold dust) i guess it has become "trendy" in fancy restaurants although i really cant understand why...

A friend of mine has one of these and its like...pointless, it has like 256 MB for storage and i cost him like 200 dlls, its so big and heavy, it looks cool but as a usb flash drive is almost useless. i wouldt pay that much for it when my LG shine cost me like 15 dlls and has 1GB capacity...

really? that's weird...i have one too (but i got ripped off, i paid $300 ) and i don't find it useless at all. it's so handy and the 1GB storage has enough space for all my music, documents, pictures etc...it's perfect for when i'm working b/c i can just keep it around my neck and pull off the usb part whenever i need to show anything to my clients. you're right about it being big and heavy though but i don't mind...i actually like it that way!
but for the price your friend and myself paid, it should've been 2GB!

the Karl Lagerfeld Holiday Log?




"Karl Lagerfeld has designed a limited edition Holiday Log with the Parisian baker Lenôtre. The Holiday Log is a traditional French dessert eaten during the holiday season and represents a log from a fireplace. The Karl Lagerfeld holiday log comes in a mirrored box and a axe made of caramelized sugar. The actual log is made of gingerbread with almonds and hazelnuts filled with a compote of sweet orange and apricot and a chocolate coulis. The cake will only be available by order from Lenôtre during the holiday season."

doubt he even tasted it

I`m getting a little flava flav fibe..

 

[Dkammern]

^^i like the cufflinks, and the marc watch is kind of ok to me too...

 

[Couture_Whore]

Those Juicy calling cards aren't actually real calling cards, I think...? They look more like cheap business cards since you have to fill them out yourself! they're very child-like...

 

[MJCouture]

I don't think cufflinks really qualify as pointless...

 

[Symetrie]

that Dior baby bottle is ridiculous.

 

[SnejanaIsMyMuse]

Those Juicy Couture cards look like they came from the pretend money things for kids that you can buy at dollar general.

Yah, I don't get why $125 Paul Smith cufflinks are in this thread.

Because they're overly priced?

 

[fashion_boi_01]

Because they're overly priced?

As far as designer cufflinks go, that's regular price, if not cheap.
I believe this thread is meant for unusual items for a designer to make (like toothbrushes and ice cube trays), or items that are grossly overpriced.
$120 isn't out of this world.
