You're going to be late for the Salzburg Music Festival!

Um, also, as a reminder? This is Spring/Summer. The idea of wearing this in spring/summer makes me break into a sweat. Not the cold sweat kind, the HOT HOT kind.

But Gwen Stefani is calling Marc Jacobs to see if she can get a pair of these shorts like IMMEDIATELY, before her nascent baby bump makes them uncomfortable.

I do have concerns about this shoe situation.

It goes without saying that I also have serious concerns about this hair situation.

Is anyone else suddenly struck with a powerful urge to watch Hocus Pocus? No? Just me? Really?

A lot of these feel VERY Lady Mary Descends Into Madness. Like a lot of Jacobs's work, there is at the very least an interesting point of view happening here. I don't always think what he puts together is very FLATTERING but at least it's not boring, which I appreciate. He tells a story in a way that other designers don't. Sometimes it's a really ugly story, but there's always some there there. In this case, the there lives in her husband's attic while he romances the unobservant governess downstairs.

I feel like Winona Ryder's ordering this one even as we speak.

And Kiki Dunst has put in her order for this one.

This, I love.

I personally tend to think that Marc Jacobs accessories are amazing -- shoes, bags, YES. And yet these shoes make me want to slap myself unconscious.

I think this will end up being re-imagined for stores in a very cute way, actually.

And this will be darkly lovely enough that someone -- the right someone -- could wear it on the red carpet and have it counted as a success.

But no one needs a GIANT TASSEL hanging from her clavicle. Your chest is not a vehicle with which to summon Carson.

Eh, more of a Diet Coke fan myself.

The styling on this one feels super Old Lady. Although Marc Jacobs does have a tendency to veer a little Old Lady.

This feels so 90s to me. Not grunge 90s, but like Amber In Clueless Gets Depressed.

There's a lot happening here.

Are these...pants? I'm seriously asking.

Marc Jacobs - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Spring 2014

I do LOVE this pattern. Why isn't this on a chair in my living room right now?

This would also make a truly glorious chair.

And I love this. Have I given myself Stockholm Syndrome via the writing of this post?

Fraulein Maria's curtains have come a long way, baby.

I am so going to dress just like this, when I'm a crazy old lady. This will totally fly in California -- that pattern feels very SoCal to me -- and, also, I am about six days from officially BEING a crazy old lady. In case you were wondering.

New York Fugshion Week: Marc Jacobs
I look forward to seeing how some of these looks get adapted for non-runway events. Some of the dresses are going to look great on the right person. And obviously I can't wait for someone to wear the Kurt von Trapp shorts suit. I hope it's Bieber. I know it's womens wear, but still. [Photos: Getty]
