Rhianna Has Big Feet

My mom was flipping through my last issue of Vogue and came across the Gucci Ad featuring Rhianna and gasped out loud. Being that I don’t really like the tattoo bag too much, I was kind of surprised at such a reaction. She looked up to me and said ‘Look at how BIG her feet are!!”
LOL.

Got to LOVE the different perspectives of others!

The Rhianna Gucci Bag

So I’m flipping through the latest issue of Vogue this afternoon after work…and I see this fabulous photo of Rhianna, who we all know looks simply amazing in anything Gucci, but this bag…is interesting.

Interesting as in, I have mixed feelings about it. I’ve recently been going through a metamorphesis with personal feelings and what it is that I truly find acceptable, lovely and not…and so when I saw this ad, I thought “I totally LOVE Rhianna. She is the perfect fashionista icon for the 20-somethings, a great IT girl”…and then I thought, but wait, I really don’t like tattoos on girls too much. I mean, I like good tattoos – like if your whole arm is sleeved and your badass with your tat, have amazing art and it is interesting to look at, but I kind of find the whole little tattoos here and there to be conflicting with my OCD.

Every morning I watch Jillian on Good Day LA and wish she didn’t have that horrible blotch of ink on her leg because it throws off the whole “look”. But back to the bag. It looks like a bag from the Hysteria Line, which I do love, but also feel that it’s on it’s way out…and the on top of that, it has tattoo type artwork on it. Which I think is WAY out of style. Kind of like the bob. It’s officially Soccer-Mom. Whenever I wear my last season Ed Hardy stuff, I get compliments from old ladies and soccer moms. Or chubby 13 year olds. The same ones who wear the itty bitty short denim skirts with black leggins underneath and bite their nails. Not quite my target audience.

So…. it seems kind of like too little too late…IMO. I’ve got to think about it some more, because I’m not sure how I feel exactly about the whole tattoo art as fashion anymore. I kind of think it’s been played out. But yea, I do have a few Ed Hardy stuff that I still wear, because…well, because I’m an undercover soccer mom, I guess. But at least they are 2 seasons old already…ya, I’m making excuses.
