i never cease to be amazed by the abundance of designer rip-offs that make it into mainstream fashion. over the summer, there was a pair of flipflops with a wraparound strap around the back - saw them by at least 4 designers.
then, there was the casual platform peeptoe that came out first at KORS, then at steve madden, and then at payless, of all places.
and, i couldn't help noticing how much the steve maddens look like the dolce vitas, which look like the jeffrey campbells (which i love, by the way).....
i love playing fashion 'memory'....it's like a little reminder of childhood :)
