Attach two small, pointed feline ears to the top of anything and the transformation is instant. Ever wondered why? Cat’s prowl. They stalk. They can purr with a quiet, knowing satisfaction or with a low rumble of just-try-me. Unlike human follies, feline error always lands on its feet. These things are all the strengths of association.

I’m normally wont to hate the cliche lingerie that raises its ugly head whenever there’s a celebration to be had. You know the kind. They’re all of the horny Halloween and “oh, hasn’t Mrs. Clause been a naughty girl this year” variety. Today will prove the exception to that avoidance rule, however.

In our latest fashion podcast we discussed Lady Gaga as fashion inspiration… for Halloween that is. She’s widely known for her crazy, often over-the-top sense of style; and this shoot is no exception. With hair reminiscent of Marilyn Monroe, this Lady-Gaga-meets-Hello-Kitty shoot is a unique take on Hollywood in the 21st century. Not only is she covered in Hello Kitty in weird and wonderful ways,…
