When Uggs go wrong.

I have to hand it to the perpetrator:  it takes incredible skill to find boots this wrong.  It’s like someone fused ugg boots, granny’s quilt and a space shuttle together in a nuclear reactor.  Props!

Moccasins Deluxe

Sometimes, people know so damn well that they look cool, that it emanates from their clothing. Case in point: this individual wearing moccasins and socks.

David Bitton Jeans and what Canadians love about them

Ah, David Bitton.  Designer for popular Buffalo Jeans, his stylish yet mid-priced denim has proven popular on an international scale.  In 1985, he opened his first ever jeans store in Montreal and never, apparently, looked back.  Today, Buffalo by David Bitton is ubiquitous in Canada and the US, and has stores as far away as [...]

Tummy Tuck Jeans: WTF!? A guide for Women…

Tummy tuck jeans are all the rage right now – and for good reason, too.  They’re flattering.  However, they can go from very hot to very very not… so I am venturing where no Fashion Hobo (but many fashion hobos) have gone before:  the land of figure-shaping denim.
