Let’s discuss this

Let’s discuss this:

This is a crystal sleeve by Philippe Audibert. Pretty much a long fingerless glove, or a giant cuff bracelet. You just wear one, as styled here:

Maybe it’s poorly styled in the above picture but I think it looks ridiculous. If you don’t think this thing is silly, too bad because it’s sold out (they could’ve just had 1 in stock, who knows) and the price tag was $3,595! It is silver-plated and it’s covered in Swarovski crystals but seriously? The stones aren’t even set nicely. I pass up crap settings like this on a $3 ring at Forever 21 for crying out loud.

I’m not trying to be a fashion curmudgeon. What you you think? Would you wear something like this? How?

Hah! I love when people call out overpriced shit designs. Which it kind of is.

No, but make it 1/3 the length and I definitely would. (But for 1/300 the price!)

I don’t know where I would wear something like that. But if I did wear it and was around my co-workers, I can guarantee the Michael Jackson jokes would be thrown out left and right.

I think it’s yet another Michael Jackson inspired trend. Also, ugly.
