It's hard to believe that this sneakers were made with the modern woman in mind. These look more for teenagers. I'm sorry but I just can't seem to find a bone in my body to like these sneakers. And yes, you were right if you thought under the tiger print sheep wool looks like Converse All Stars. And for $385, you can buy a pair of Louboutins, and a few pairs chic and more stylish sneakers.

My eyes got so big with excitement when I came across this Comme des Garcons jacket. I first saw the unzipped photo and then came the zipped-up photo. Then head tilt to the side and uttered 'WTF' (what the fashion)! I'm a fan of Comme des Garcon don't get me wrong but why ruin a good thing? I love the structure of the garment, the color and fit but those damn slits just ruined it for me.

Seeing these sneakers was a 'WTH' moment for me. Personally, leopard print on itself is fine, but to embellish can just be to much! Don't get me wrong, I love me some metal in my fashion, in this case though to garish. And yes, the above photos shows brand new sneakers, the worn or should I say dirtied look comes with the $400 price tag. Overall, these sneakers are not a smart investment.

I've been a fan of Comme Des Garcons since I high school. The fashion-forward, edgy and unique designs gravitated me to the iconic Japanese fashion label. But sometimes their pieces can be to 'out-there'. Take for example this Half Jacket. This deconstructed jacket with a cropped sleeveless tank is undeniably a piece of wearable art. Unfortunately, when it comes to functionality and practicality it doesn't score well. Specially when you take into consideration the hefty price tag.

I'm big fan of DSQUARED, Dean and Dan are innovators and one of fashion's top design duo. But sometimes, like in this case they get carried away. I mean seriously? Trust me, I was on the fence with these Ice Skate Boots. I like the concept and all but at the end of the day they are just to out there for my taste. And the real reason why I picked them as this week's fashion crime is practicality. Yes, they are statement worthy but you can buy at least three pairs of Louboutins for the price. For me they are a 'one-hit wonder', wear them once, fab! Wear them a second time around... tired.

I have the utmost respect to Junya Watanabe he is one of the top designers in the world of fashion but even legends can get it wrong sometimes and this garment is just that. Best to describe this dress is Laura Ingalls meets haute couture. The Peter Pan collar gives the dress a dated look not in a good way while the hem on the back looks like it got caught in your underwear. Sorry Mr. Watanabe, this dress in one word... fail

The kimono has been a part of fashion for decades. It has been modified from it's traditional roots to fit the latest trends. And of course not all designers that have tried succeeded. Case in point, this silk satin kimono dress by Haider Ackermann. Don't get me wrong I am a fan of Ackermann, not particularly on this one. This garment is just to loose and messy looking. It also resembles an oversize men's sleepwear. I'm not even gonna talk about the price! Bottom line... not fashionable and over priced!
