Courtney Love leaving her hotel in Paris last week before her gig at Le Bataclan.
Thankfully, Courtney’s Granny-get-up was just a clever ruse to throw the paps off her trail. I give you exhibit A, below…

Grunge-y cover-girl transformation, complete. Phew!
The Sex Pistols now have their own perfume.
Have you ever wanted to smell like three week old BO, vomit, a broken bass guitar (covered in piss), heroin, stale blood and brill creme? Well you can’t. And that’s because none of those things are in the new” Sex Pistols” perfume just launched by French beauty house Elat Libre D’Orange last month. Who knew black pepper was “defiant” or that prunes were “turbulent”. Well, Johnny Lydon probably knows a few things about prunes but, that’s another matter. All aging-punk-rock-idol-laxative-jokes aside, here’s what a “Sex Pistols” actually smells according to the French POV:
Fresh, restless bite of lemon, sharpened and intensified by defiant black pepper. It’s the unruly turbulence of a prune and an in-your-face ambrette. Electrified by aldehydes, you can feel the pure energy pared down and pumped up by leather, shot through with heliotrope and brought back down to earth by a raunchy patchouli.
I can’t argue with the fact that patchouli actually is pretty raunchy smelling so, I’m sure Sex Pistols is going to be a nose-smashing success. So far, it’s only available at Sephora locations with a Euro postal code. Which is far enough away for me.

Usually, when used together in a sentence, the words, “see-through” and “t-shirt” equal “good times”. Thanks for ruining my day American Apparel.

Male model sulking down the catwalk for designer Walter Van Beirendonck “Read My Skin” show at Paris Fashion Week
Here’s a look at what no man in his right mind, not even the sparkly ones designer Walter Van Beirendonck (creator of the “Man Shirt” seen here on Cherrybombed.com) thinks the well dressed man will be wearing next summer. And while the words “skirts are in this year” might be terrifying enough for most men, it could be worse. There’s also the frightening potential that the “Smells Like Jesus Spirit” craze that dominated the Men’s 2011 Spring/Summer looks this past week in Paris could catch on.

Sleek and Slithery knit beachwear from page 19 of the 1975 Fall Winter Sears Catalog.
Man, the catalog “writers” for the 1975 Fall/Winter Sears Catalog were so far ahead of their time. Sleek and Slithery is a totally 80’s way to describe a girl in a bathing suit. Or the latest record by Whitesnake.
