Been shopping much?

Seen the latest "store-within-a-store" Fiorucci boutique at your local Target store? All that "retro" 70's/80's gear made me giddy.

If I were 15, I'd be all over that merch unless...

...my parents saw this Fiorucci website  (warning: not for viewing at work!!) from their fall fashion campaign last year and thus forbade me from buying any of it.

Gee, I wonder if Target corporate knows about the questionable (is it me, or does it look like kid porn???) material their vendor has online. I mean, the satyrs and nudie sillouettes are campy but a nude teen(?) with the slogan "Fiorucci Made Me Hardcore", uh, not sure how that's going to fly with most American parents. Not to mention, the brand itself it was always kinda funky, if not "colorful." I mean, alot of it leans on a fetishy, punky, handcuffs-'n-high heels rock 'n roll sensibility. The NYC stores back-in-the-day used to have some wild window displays, if I recall.

Just for fun I fired off an email to Target corporate about this issue and how it (the website content)  made me uneasy  - and I'm not even that conservative of a person! I can't wait to have the store detective shadowing me next time I'm shopping for cleaning supplies and goldfish crackers. *Wink*
