When Fashion Bites the Bullet


In the days before anesthetics, soldiers were given bullets to bite down on to help them endure excruciating pain. As a result, the term "bite the bullet" was born (now a common euphemism for the harsher "deal with it" and/or "don't be a wuss.") Fast forward to fall 2008 and you've got soldiers marching up and down the runways as though John Galliano himself gave a call to arms.

So it's little surprise that fashion is biting the proverbial bullet with accessories that leave little to the imagination. (Try getting through airport security with one of these bad boys!) This proliferation of ammunition-inspired style is also a clear sign that the emerging "gun as fashion statement" trend isn't losing any steam. (Oh, and Karl, be a dear and put down the gun shoe before somebody gets hurt.)
