I was wondering when someone was going to do an extensive post on this new "intergalactic space" trend I've been hearing about. LOVE THE SHOES (surprise, surprise) and love the name of the post - clever! the perforated fingerless gloves are so cool, not sure if I could pull them off because I don't know where I would wear them, but I LIKE! and I would kill for those Brian Atwood purple suede pumps *dies*
