Bondage A-Go-Go

All things bondage, leather, cut-out and studded seem to be making their way into Fall fashions. You may recall the obvies connections that CAG made from a while back. Here are some hand-picked looks for the tough gals of autumn:

This look is bondagey while still maintaining its sweetness. This shirred-sleeve dress by Givenchy is worn by San Francisco's own Vanessa Traina and borrowed from a blog called Rackk and Ruin.

For a similar look to fit the budget try this H&M jumper with the straps crossed frontwards instead of backwards.

If you've got some extra duckets you may want to toss them at these beauties featured in the September issue of Elle:

Killer cut-out stilettos by Jil Sander, Gucci and Devi Kroell respectively.

If you can't currently break into your piggy-bank but you still crave the fall look, try these lifts by Urban Outfitters:

Above studded sallies by Deena & Ozzy. Below punctured patties by Sam Edelman (man, do I LOVE me some Sam).

Lastly, I would like to mention a little lady named Kimberly Ovitz, who has been tragically vacant from this blog as-of-yet. Kimberly enjoys the simple pleasures in life. Namely, black and white ensembles.

Kimberly is a minimalist from LA whose line carries accolades from names like Chlöe Sevigny, Alexis Bledel, Olivia Wilde and Elle magazine to name a few. She's also younger than me - bitch. This perfect fall cut-out dress named "Maxine" is available on shopbop. It belongs to Ovitz's Fall 09 collection which you can check out here.

CAG over and out, hoping you find the S&M in you this autumn.

Love you, mean it

Currently listening to "Eusebio" by Giulia y los Tellarini.

P.S. The Deena & Ozzys featured above are VEGAN :) Just a little FY-Izzle...
