My dear anonymous friend posed an interesting question that got me thinking. As people get older and older, why do they seem to slowly wither away. Their sense of style becomes drier and more sober. Perhaps, age and experience just sober you up. Or perhaps its just the nature of life. They go through the four seasons. It certainly got me thinking.
As I was flying a few weeks ago from Kansas city, (sidenote:which has the easiest airport I have been to till date), I boarded into a relatively small airplane. It was one of those planes where there are only two seats on either side. It was pretty entertaining as well. It had two, very nice ladies as stewardesses. They were particularly funny and super friendly. Interestingly they were probably in their mid to late 50s. They hadnt lost the chutzpah to life. And it was a delight to watch them. Reminded me of the Golden Girls(yeah, I watch that show)
Although, I was completely entertained, I made a mental not to self to write abt a fashion peeve that had briefly escaped my attention. One of the golden ladies had tied her blonde hair into a high pony tail with a black velvet scrunchie. To add to that, there was the gold ear rings and bright red lipstick. Instinctively, I had the reaction one has, when you scratch a blackboard with your finger nails. I quickly forgave herthough, given her pleasant attitude and demenaour.
But please people, scrunchies have been long out! I dont even know where one can buy them these days. But if you do find them somewhere, stay away and spare the rest of the poor souls like me please!

That is so Sex and the City, Deeps! Do you remember the episode where the foremost thing Carrie comments on about Burger's book is the scrunchie his lead - being a New Yorker - wears?
Also, I do hope it's not a crime to wear a scrunchie at home. They are awfully convenient, you know - fashionable anymore or not.
yeah...but the thing is that it irritated me no end before i saw that episode! its a case of which came first - the chicken or the egg:)...neways, due credit to Carrie Bradshaw...And I am definitely the one to believe that convenience and fashion dont necessarily always go together:) aah..if wishes were horses...So I forgive you:D
I went to Doll House to by a Sherri Hill dress 1403 for the best price quoted $450 for my daughter. I was told that Doll House has a registry and that I would be the only one wearing this style dress at my formal. When I arrived at my formal, there were two 2 other girls wearing exactly the same style dress and they also got it from dollhouse I can’t begin to tell you how angry and sick that made me feels. I will not be taking my daughter there for her year 12 formal.
