Some, not so wearable

What I've found to be the most striking out of all of the Fall Fashion trends on the runway,
were the Dr. Seuss style mink hats worn in the Marc Jacobs collection.
I loved them.
Were they wearable? Not so much.
So, I've found my wearable (and affordable) alternative at Couture Allure Vintage
Most of the what I saw in the Fall Collections I found to be totally over the top and unwearable, not to mention inappropriate.
(When the economy is tanked, is multicolored head to toe fur really appropriate?)
But I still think that we can add a little whimsy to our wardrobes with a funky brooch or two
or a fun hat.
What do you think?
