Browsing Perez Hilton a while ago, I came upon this picture of Lady Gaga donning a Thierry Mugler-inspired dress:http://perezhilton.com/2009-01-27-lady-gaga-debuts-a-new-look
I like Lady Gaga (a friend of mine recently sent me an acoustic of her and she has a lovely voice), and I like Thierry Mugler not only for their perfume, Angel, but just for the appeal of all those crystals and the idea that if I bought something from them, I, too, could become queen (Naomi Watts?) of all those glittery stones. http://fr.boutique.thierrymugler.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/TopCategoriesDisplay?langId=-2&storeId=10101&catalogId=10701
At Galleries Lafayette, I thought the star-adorned purses were pretty cute, but sometimes I wonder if these kinds of things I could buy at Forever 21 and get it out of my system...when is it worth it to splurge? Is it ever worth it? I just started reading a book called Deluxe by Dana Thomas about the luxury goods industry and the amount of markup on purses is turning me off from designer bags in general...
