Woah. I Found The Ugliest Thing Ever On The Internet

Is it a backpack? Lady Gaga's metal and PVC placenta? Where's the head? I don't know. Not even that tag hanging off the bottom of it can identify it!

Overpriced Alert: Smathers & Branson Belt

($185, Smathers & Branson, C.Orrico)
How the fuck is this belt $185? Does that include yacht club membership? And what kind of a name is Smathers and Branson? It even sounds like an uptight law firm. And how is C. Orrico "Where Palm Beach Comes to Play" (ew!) so blatantly ripping off Henri Bendel's signature brown and white likeness?



Gag me with this $595 men's Lilly Pulitzer blazer:
Actually, the type of man who'd wear that blazer AND fluorescent green pants probably WOULD spend $185 on an embroidered sailboat belt and probably WOULD wear it with the aforementioned parade of gaud. Money can't buy taste, people.

And by the way, I'm not totally opposed to the idea of the prepster belt by any means. But $185? Huh? Observe:

Way less money, you still get preppy little symbols wrapped around your waist, everyone goes home happy.


($28, Urban Outfitters)
Double your nautical cuteness.

Also, I'm so sad this DSquared2 whale belt is sold out... and speaking of Bendel's, check out these amazing illustrations at A Design Affair.
