Not everyone has a drawerful of Affliction tees and the latest hoodie offerings from RZST—but you do, so why on earth would you visit Fashion Co-Op OC this Saturday at the Bridges Facility in Irvine? Oh, right: you're never satisfied. That's it. (Also: skull graphics are kind of in their 13th minute, right . . . now.) So—you should go. It'll be fun.

You can bask in the reflected glory of togs by Jodi B. Wise (don't look at us—we didn't name it)—jeans all wrapped up in some sort of Topanga-y patchwork hippie splendor. (But clean!) They—we're quoting—were apparently given out to the American Idol finalists by Extra TV, which really shouldn't make up anyone's mind. Also? The dressed-up, low-cut effrontery of tops from The Runway, which some of you could probably wear to the office. It's all 40 to 80 percent off, or so they say—you really do look like hell—and there'll even be Tab. It's back—on ice!

Best, whilst you spend to save on the work of what seems like about a hundred up-and-coming designers, you can crack wise about Alex Hooser and friends from MTV's Laguna Beach. They're supposed to be there. How is that not a posse?

FASHION CO-OP OC AT THE BRIDGES FACILITY, 8800 IRVINE CENTER DR., IRVINE, (323) 302-4758; WWW.FASHIONCOOP.COM. SAT. VIP ADMISSION, 10 A.M.-12:30 P.M.; GENERAL ADMISSION, 1-4 P.M. $3-$5.
