Now that tax season is over, today at work things were very slow. I was bored and started surfing sites that I knew I could never afford. Actually, to let you in on a secret of mine, sometimes I like looking at these "top designers", I make a mental note and then go to my cheap stores like Urban Wear and Forever21 and create a better cheaper look without breaking my wallet. Sorry Carrie Bradshaw, life isn't always about which designer I should be wearing.
So I was looking at Barney's New York website. I couldn't believe what I saw. Were my eyes playing tricks on me or has Mugatu (Fashion Designer on the awesome movie Zoolander) finally released Derelict? Magatu described it as "Let me show you the future of fashion. Let me show you Derelict. It is a fashion, a way of life inspired by the very homeless, the vagrants, the crack whores that make this wonderful city so unique."
Well readers..... here it is.
These "beauty's" will only cost you $560 and they save you time trying to "break them in" because they are already dirty. The things people make and what's the most ridiculous part is, these young kids eat this crap up and buy it. They convince the world that this is worth your money. I bet it only cost less than $10 to make a pair of these shoes, including the dirt that comes with it.

for the people who are to upscale to get their own shoes dirty?

That's unbelievable. Although, I don't think designers are influencing the kids--just their parents.
