Check out this article in the daily beast about "FACE MASK CHIC," the new trend sparked by that pesky little airborne swine flu pandemic. We're not sure if its horribly inappropriate or positively upbeat...who says when life gives you lemons you cant make a chartreuse minidress?

Consumers, save your dollars for that Balmain jacket you're drooling over. Buyers, well, you should just know better.
