Over Gaga

When I sat down to write this post I was flirting with the idea of discussing one of fall’s biggest trends: camel. Then I came across this picture and decided that I couldn’t comfortably ignore it. My apologies to those of you who would have preferred to read a post about taupe colored accessories. This image, taken at Lollapalooza, pretty much sums up the feelings I have been nursing for Lady Gaga as of late. In classic passive aggressive fashion, however, I have been biting my tongue only to reveal my true feelings later in a less composed manner, like that time sophomore year when I fumed for a good forty five minutes before snapping at my roommate for spring cleaning at 4 o’clock in the morning. Although I was completely on board when she made her pant-less debut and believe that she is truly a phenomenal entertainer, Gaga’s usual antics have recently become meaningless and dare I say, trite. The theatrics, that until lately showcased her confidence and individuality, now reek of attention-seeking fame whore. In my opinion this outfit looks less chart topping diva and more hot mess. What do you think? Do you love or hate the fishnet body stocking?
