On Our Way To Crazy

… like disco lemonade…

A great pair of high heels, a good shade of lipstick and a stiff drink. January 22, 2007

Okay, people.

We have got to figure out a way to get me on What Not To Wear. Seriously.

I will do whatever it takes. I will wear sweats to work. I will curl my bangs like I did in junior high. I will tuck sleeveless polo shirts into mom jeans. I will wear pleats and tapered pants and hot pink lipstick and furry clogs out in public. All at the same time.

I watch this show, and it just makes me crazy. These women do not understand what they have been given! FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS, PEOPLE. Just for clothes.

They balk at pointy boots and straight jeans and velvet jackets. They recoil at the prices. They can’t imagine spending that kind of money on clothes.

You know who can imagine it? ME.

I would love for them to hand me $5000 and tell me what to buy. I would be all over that. You want me to buy tweed trousers and wrap dresses and funky jewel-toned heels? I’m on it. This coat is $500? NO PROBLEM. Ring it up.

So. I’m about to lame up my wardrobe. I just need y’all to nominate me.

    Maybe you should nominate Adriene and get her to nominate you. She’s been thinking about this same strategy for about a year now.

    My best friend and I have been plotting this for EVER. I have the exact same reaction to all those people. “I’M willing to upgrade my wardrobe if you give me MONEY to do it!” Ungrateful wretches. :P

    as much as i’d like to nominate you, that’d be like nominating normal people for mtv real world. there would be no drama! :)

    I’m sure Brandi would be able to bring the drama along with the lame wardrobe.

    “NO, NOT MY PINK FAUX FUR COAT!”
