The skull and cross bones has traditionally been associated with piracy and hard edge motor-cycle gangs. British designer Alexander McQueen reversed the trend with his delicate scarves and very classy clutches adorned with skulls, in a trend that was picked up by other designers and celebrities the world over.

However if your budget doesn’t extend to $2500 for a purse, this season you can still rock the designer look, at a fraction of the price.

Fake It ‘Til You Make It! How To Rent Your Wardrobe

Paigion — Sat, 22 Jan 2011 14:00:34 +0000

Ever heard the old saying ‘fake it ’til you make it’?. Well it is now a whole lot easier to look the part, with the current explosion of rental websites, where you can rent everything from handbags, designer outfits and jewelry, to home and office furniture.

Now you don’t need to resort to buying outfits you really can’t afford, wearing them with the tags still attached, and praying that you don’t spill anything on the dress, sweat in the dress, tear the dress, or (gasp) that someone sees the tag, all in the hope that tomorrow you can convince the sales assistant to give you a full refund.

Here are three of the best websites for rentals, at prices that won’t leave you feeling faint when you open the dreaded credit card statement…

Rent the Runway.
With a tag line that emphasizes high fashion at only 10% retail prices, it really is America’s best fashion secret!

Bag Borrow or Steal.
You probably remember the website from the Sex and the City movie (the good one, not the sequel), where JHud gets her very own Louis Vuitton handbag. This site has a massive array of designer bags, jewelry, sunglasses and watches, just take care not to drool on the keyboard as you browse.

Cort.
Cort is the world’s largest furniture rental website. You can rent a single piece of furniture, or furnish a whole room. Whole living room sets, start from as little as $174 per month. It is the perfect, professional look that should be your number one port of call if you are thinking of selling your home, or simply haven’t decided on what style you prefer.

Now good style really is affordable!

Woman Sues LeBron’s Manager For Robbery And False Imprisonment

Big Greg — Tue, 19 Oct 2010 15:48:32 +0000

VaNeisha Robinson is suing LeBron James manager, Maverick Carter for robbery, false imprisonment and mental anguish. Vaneisha claims she was tricked in to going to Carter’s house because she had a valuable pendent that once belonged to LeBron, only to be intimidated into giving the pendent to Carter. TMZ Reports:

TMZ has obtained a lawsuit filed by VaNeisha Robinson — in which she claims Maverick Carter and his mom staged a 9-man ambush to jack a $10,000 pendant she claims she bought at a garage sale for $5 back in 2005 thinking it was costume jewelry. Turns out, it was real.

But in the suit, filed in Ohio, Robinson claims Carter concocted a diabolical plan to lure her into his home, insisting that LeBron would be present to make a deal — instead, she claims, a horde of 8 or 9 people held her in the house against her will and forced her to give up the bling.
