Marc by Marc Jacobs Cotton Shirt Marc by Marc Jacobs Cotton Shirt detailOne of the things I dread the most is when my clothes get stained or when their colors run or when said running colors from other clothing article rub onto an item I intend to wear for years and years. Which is why I dry clean most everything (my hatred for ironing is a big factor - but I digress). That way I can be sure that my clothes get cleaned and stay the way they are longer.

So I cringed when I saw this shirt from Marc Jacobs' diffusion line. I am supposed to believe that the blue patches represent floral pattens? They just look like random ink spots to me. And the pink petals look artificial and cheap; like it got watered down.

The white dots on the blue backdrop just confuses my poor eyes. I don't know where to even begin. Except to close the browser window.

You can find this for US$178 at Saks Fifth Avenue.

Marc by Marc Jacobs I wonder all the time about the individuals who buy pieces like this and also about the individuals who inspire such pieces. I get it, this is funny and tongue-in-cheek but I know I won't be able to wear this on a regular basis. Maybe I don't have enough attitude to carry this off but maybe I don't want to.

The cut-out eye design just looks like oversized nipple pads to me. Like a protective bra to prevent pre-mature leaking of milk. Expect this is on a hoodie and you're supposed to look cool with this on your back. 

I don't think looking like I am nursing is a good look for me, or for anyone, for that matter. Which is a shame because I think this is a good shade of blue and I am liking the slanted V-neck design. 

And can anyone be taken seriously when wearing this? I guess, if you buy this, being taken seriously won't even be on your agenda.
