Balmain for Eight Crazy Nights

by

When I first glimpsed this studded Balmain tank top in Bergdorf Goodman, I thought it had a menorah on it.

Now I can’t get this Adam Sandler song out of my head.

That song is really very educational. I like that David Lee Roth is first on Sandler’s list of menorah-lighting Jews. Many years ago, I had a fun night out on the town with Diamond Dave after meeting him at a strip club. I wasn’t working there, fools! My friend Dave (another Dave) and I were there getting lap dances. Duh! Anyway, Roth was very smart and funny. I’d hang out with him in a topless joint any time. Call me, Diamond Dave!

  4. omg i had to click on the david lee roth page just to make sure we were talking about the same guy… i'm so envious of you!

  7. it kind of looks like ribs too, I hate when embellishments only cover one part and dont continue. the worst of example being flapper dresses that only have the tassles in the front half of the dress! i dont see the point of this other than being an expensive embellished graphic top.

  11. Boy, Balmain is just the designer du jour now? everyone loves the brand… i do like the top though. Does it cost an arm and a leg?

  12. It does look like a menorah! Or glittery ribs, like Belette mentioned. Brings new meaning to sticks-to-your-ribs! (Could be a new tagline for WB diamonds?)

  14. Balmain makes me go MEHHHH. But that menorah tank is hilarious. And so is Adam Sandler 😀

  17. hahaha hilarious post. i'd love to see a list of anyones top 5 people they'd like to go to a strip club with. it would be a companion to the ever famous "who would you invite to your dinner party" "who would you invite to a strip club" hahaha

  20. Of course you have hung out with Diamond Dave. That is what Wendy B does, bitches!

    Okay, I have been trying to hold this in and it's been too frickin' hot to wear it, but I found a cashmere cardigan…and the label is Wendy B! As soon as it gets cooler I promise to wear it and I will dedicate the post to you as one of your fervent, worshipping acolyte bitches. 🙂

  21. LOL! Sheila, that's fantastic.

    Fashion_Loving_Stylist, most definitely not! But I got a nice Roland Mouret dress. I think they were about the same price (before the dress went on sale) but one is a fantastic dress and the other is a man's undershirt that's been bedazzled! Basically, right?
