Open your loving arms and show these folks the way to redemption. Teach them to repent for all of their sins. Let them know how much Jesus loves them, and how Jesus doesn&#8217;t judge them but will punish them if they don&#8217;t repent. What better gift to give! &#8220;Oh, Jesus, please forgive me for the things I&#8217;m about to say I killed you in my mind today I cut you up, I watched you bleed I killed you in my heart today For everything you did to me I murdered you a hundred times I shot you dead and never cried I killed you in my mind today I laughed and watched you die Screaming at me all on fire Liar, liar, liar I buried you with my desire Liar, liar, liar I buried you so far below Liar, liar, liar I hate to see you go Oh, Jesus, please forgive me Oh, Jesus, please forgive me On my knees beside my bed Liar, liar, liar I&#8217;m sorry for the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Mighty and erect is this Will of mine, this Pyramid of fire whose summit is lost in Heaven. Upon it have I burned the corpse of my desires. Mighty and erect is this Φαλλοσ of my Will. The seed thereof is That which I have borne within me from Eternity; and it is lost within the Body of Our Lady of the Stars. I am not I; I am but an hollow tube to bring down Fire from Heaven. Mighty and marvellous is this Weakness, this Heaven which draweth me into Her Womb, this Dome which hideth, which absorbeth, Me. This is The Night wherein I am lost, the Love through which I am no longer I. —Aleister Crowley, &#8220;The Gun-Barrel&#8221;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Last week wunderkind and Lagerfeld protogé Jean-Pierre Braganza unveiled his A/W 09 collection, entitled &#8221; Totempyrean&#8221; at Milan&#8217;s Fashion Week. Braganza, a Brit-born Canadian, used to show in London, but switched over to Milan recently. The collection, Braganza told Coutorture, was inspired by Native American imagery and futuristic, sculptural tailoring. The hard-edges of the collection were softened by prints that came from digitally manipulated x-rays. For me, Braganza combines the best of Balenciaga (silhouettes), the sleek lines of McQueen, the rockstar attitude of Rick Owens, and mixes it all together with a whisk of origami-perfect pleating. Not that Braganza isn&#8217;t entirely original, he is. I wouldn&#8217;t call his look fresh or anything else that sounds like lemonade, but there is something new in his aesthetic. While I can find elements of many lines in his work, it points only towards the future. Braganza&#8217;s minimal use of color is spectacular. I love the combinations of black and purple, and the space age blues. Arctic fox rubs up against merino in a symphony of textures. You can almost hear the heart beating behind this collection, it&#8217;s all raging guitar solos and drum machine whirs and hisses. In fact, it sounds a little [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[What happens when Amanda Lepore, MC Escher, and the ghost of McQueen season&#8217;s past collide on the runway? Duh, magic. Absolute and total magic. It looks like a car crash gone terribly terribly right, and I can&#8217;t get enough of it. Okay, so I&#8217;m actually pretty sure that Ms. Lepore herself was not in attendance at the show, but her lips are everywhere, on every model, black and bold, and cartoon hot. MC Escher printed fabrics and the ubiquitous houdstooth abound. Silhouettes so ruffled and flounced and corseted they could only be McQueen. The theme of McQueen&#8217;s A/W 09 collection is reinvention, and while I think of him as a designer who is constantly revising and reprising his own work diligently, the idea of renewal was definitely underscored here. Models paraded against backdrop of destroyed car parts with spraypainted soda cans in their hair. It wasn&#8217;t just Mr. McQueen&#8217;s ideas that were being recycled and reused, it was everything. [nggallery id=13] Photo Credits: fashionologie]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So, I neglected to mention that Gareth Pugh also released his first-ever menswear collection for A/W 09, and it is every bit as swoonworthy as the women&#8217;s collection. With baited breath, I wait for a world in which all men dress like this. This leather jacket on the right is so effing hot, it&#8217;s black, metallic, quilted, and delicious. I&#8217;m totally nuts for the boots with that jacket, as well. To the knee, leather with studded straps? Yes, please. Are you shitting me with this jacket collection. I want every single one of these. I have a feeling we&#8217;re going to be seeing a lot more of this structured, belted vibe in leathers starting now. Check a video of the runway show from The New York Times. Photo Credits: Raras Coincidencias Neoyorquinas]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Remember in 1992 when Marc Jacobs sent all those ripped apart, layered looks down the Perry Ellis runway? The ones that simultaneously spawned nearly a generation of plaid-clad youth and also got MJ fired? Well, back in those days my all black, leather and lace aesthetic was deeply influenced by that grunge runway, and I have recently developed a deep nostalgia for those goth days. Nothing has hit a nerve more deeply than the Rick Owens F/W 09 line.   Whatever I actually looked like in my youth, this is what I was going for. I love the funnel neck leather jacket atop the black satin minidress atop the white cotton minidress atop the ribbed grey leggings with the always exquisite Rick Owens boots. I also love the sparse pale grey and black color palette that dominated his runway. It is my deepest wish that this is the runway that spawns a generation of admirers and teenage copycats. I mean, seriously, what would be cooler than a high school full of kids that look like this?   Photo Credits: fashionologie]]></description>
