Getting Ahead of Ourselves?

'Since you haven't kissed yet, you might want to hold off on the redecorating.'
Kirsten to Julie, The O.C.

Sometimes words of wisdom come from unexpected places.

And then sometimes the unexpected just falls from the pages of a magazine. Like this /parka cape/, described by Lucky Magazine as a 'Stylish Hybrid.' More like a costume worn by human-esque alien women on the original Star Trek.

The description also used the word 'weekendy' to describe the model's skinny white jeans. (Note: the FG doesn't recommend white jeans. Especially after Labor Day. And don't get her started on turquoise T-straps. Or T-straps in general.)

This isn't The Colbert Repor(t), people, you can't just make words up and expect us to use them. And that's the Truth.

  • Seriously? That parka thing? With the white jeans? Is totally hideous. How do people come up with this stuff?

  • I KNOW! This is what I'm saying. I don't know a single woman who wants to look bulkier, especially in brown. Also can't figure out where one would wear this - it's not warm enough for east coast winters and is too warm/not waterproof for the Pacific NW. The designer is French ... but that doesn't make it right.
