I know they don't look alike



I know they don't look alike but not all idiots do.

Little girls in mom's clothes





I am amazed at how much fabric is in use in the spring collections. The white dress looks like a size 12 on a size 4 figure. The tent dress, while beautiful fabric, looks as if I could wear it. The blue pants have lots of extra fabric where many women have lots of extra. And the green sheet has been gathered on a skinny girl with a pretty good looking belt. I'll bet you could clothe a whole family in all that fabric.

In what world?


Hello. Charlie Sheen has made it to the Hall of Fame. He's a winner in my book. After all the idiotic things he's done, he is a firm inductee to the idiots Hall of Fame. He thinks he should have suck ups from Jon Cryer after putting the guy out of work and gloating about it. He thinks he needs a new house right around the corner from his already beautiful one. Maybe room for more women cause I don't think any judge in their right mind would give him custody of a dog, much less a child. He thinks he can go on tube rants and when the outcome sucks he can say, "I didn't mean it." What a rube.

Ahhhhhhh, Spring





At Blumarine, Anna Molinari has posted s collection that finally made me smile. She used a lot of tie-dye. But it was used with a big smile and lots of fun. I think the collection was probably fun to design and it will certainly be fun for women to wear. I don't envy the models their figures in the clothes because I think they are way too thin. But I do think many of the outfits could be translated to larger sizes and still be terrific looking. Happy Spring.

Saint Laurent




Always when I look at the collections by the best known design houses I expect to see several themes. This one is no exception. However I am surprised that 2 of the three photos show garments that might only look good, if that, on the models wearing them. The garments have a large amount of extra fabric which if worn by an average size woman would add many pounds to her appearance. I am glad I am not restricted to totally overpriced and underpretty clothes. I have noticed in the fashion world, on the red carpets, and especially on brides that the latest trends include clumped together fabrics, odd drapings, lopsided garments, and layers of fabric. None of these things appeal to me. I prefer to be able to see a woman's body in her clothes. Otherwise it appears that the clothes are using her as a coathanger. Not an attractive look in my opinion.

The other thing I mention about the designs is that there seems to be an extra strip of fabric at the bottoms of the shorts shown. Ha. A pair of scissors and that can be worn by anyone.

The Spring fashions are interesting to see. Not to buy.

Today we have 2



Today we have 2 idiots of the day. Charlie(look what they put me through)Sheen and designer John(your grandfathers would have been gassed)Galliano. I don't know how alcohol does it but it seems to turn semi intelligent people into idiots.
