The classic gray sweatshirt, long a staple of high school and college gymnasiums everywhere, has become a fashion favorite. From vintage reissues from Todd Snyder + Champion, to chain embellished from Saint Laurent, to flower appliquéd from Alexander McQueen, to silk backed from Jason Wu… the gray sweatshirt is no longer for the gym only, but a must have chic and sporty layer for spring.

This fall 2012 architectural shoe of wonder by Alexander McQueen defies the laws of fashion and gravity. Only the most experienced fashionistas should dare to wear… trained professionals like Lady Gaga and Daphne Guiness or perhaps a prima ballerina. Despite the claim of stability due to the elongated base, the rest of us better hit the gym fast because I’m guessing 1 minute in these shoes equals about 60 calf raises. I wouldn’t worry too much though. With a price tag of $6395, I dont think too many of us will have to start training.
