Marc Jacobs

Yes’s: 231 No’s: 120

Don’t get us wrong…we think Marc Jacobs is a total genius…but this “Madame” motif that he overused for his Spring ’09 collection particularly reminds us of that crusty old hag Emilra Gulch from the Wizard of Oz…Run Toto Run!!! Tell us what you think; is Marc Jacobs a fashion visionary or is his spring line going to straight to the dogs?

Bottle Cap Earrings

Yes’s: 88 No’s: 49

Like the Bottle Cap Furniture we showed you, these earrings are made from recycled bottle caps. Tell us what you think: would wearing these make you look like a badass, or a boozehound?

Montreal Gazette’s Ad Campaign

Yes’s: 82 No’s: 46

Montreal Gazette’s television, radio and print ads have captured everyone’s attention in Montreal as well as all of Canada with their clever word-focused ad campaigns. They are clever, witty and biting combining pop cultures references from President Obama to Paris Hilton. Tell us what you think; Loves it. Word.

Blockbuster

Yes’s: 192 No’s: 115

All hail big business! After finally banishing those annoying late fees, Blockbuster has a new offer specifically targeted for these tough economic times—offering 99cent movie rentals for the month of January! While at first glance this seems like a kind gesture, they haven’t been quite clear if it’s for “any movie” (i.e. new releases) or just some classic DVD’s. Let’s face it, if I want to watch Scarface all I have to do is channel surf on any given night after 1am and I’m sure to find it for FREE. Tell us what you think; is this a kind gesture for these challenging economic times or just a veiled cash grab from corporate filth?

#38

Lady Ga Ga

Yes’s: 230 No’s: 140

Ok, so we can tolerate the catchy single “let’s dance,” and we definitely love that Canadian rapper Kardinal Official is showcased on the dance remix version, and we can even appreciate the glam homage to Bowie and Queen, but let’s not mince words here—where the hell did this bitch come from and is she here to stay? Tell us what you think; does Lady Ga Ga have any staying power or she a flash in the pan one hit wonder like Right Said Fred?

Dan Levin Mash Up Dolls

Yes’s: 158 No’s: 99

One man’s trash is another man’s treasure and that is certainly the credo for artist Dan Levin, who loves to use raw materials in creating what he coins as “objects of curiousity” in weird and wonderful mashups. Tell us what you think; is this ingenious high art or just hillbilly collage that gives us the heebie jeebies?

#40

Yes’s: 91 No’s: 58

Can't you just picture someone combing their hair with this? You might not want to bring this comb with you while you're traveling - I'm just saying! Tell us what you think: is this a wicked creative comb, or is this... a little scary?

Accesorize your buds! Budclicks give your earbuds a whole new look and tell the world you aren’t just another Owelian herded sheep walking around with PLAIN earphone buds. Heaven forbid.

Gas Mask Vase

Yes’s: 79 No’s: 53

Like the Three Gun Vase also featured in this section, the Gas Mask Vase by Alvaro Uribe combines the imagery of violence and war with beautiful design. The two together would help you create that “I’m a tough guy/gal with a tender heart” vibe you’re trying to pull off in your living room. Tell us what you think: Do you like the violence/beauty juxtaposition, or is it too deep for you?

Yes’s: 69 No’s: 49

Crafted by Joao Sabino, these bags are made up of 393 computer keys of varying sizes. Tell us what you think: is this a key addition to your wardrobe, or would you rather your work didn’t leak into your fashion sense?

“Sweet Tooth” Shirt by Brian Walline

Yes’s: 79 No’s: 57

This shirt (available on Threadless.com) features what looks to be a T-rex greedily ransacking the innerds of Triceratops. Take a closer look and you’ll see that the victim is actually a pinata full of Candy, and the T-rex is just trying to enjoy the loot. Tell us what you think: Is this design clever or vaguely disturbing? Would you wear it, or hide it in the nether regions of your closet?

Louis Vuitton Ads

Yes’s: 134 No’s: 99

Madonna! Louis Vuitton! Two (three) words that go together like Porsche and Strawberry! We love the new ads showcasing the 50-year old icon in various Marlena Dietrich inspired contortions, that we almost forget how unrealistically photo shopped the whole sham, (ahem, shoot!) really is! Tell us what you think; are you Go Madge Go, or No Madge Noooooooooooooooo!
