London Fashion Week..Smashing!

It’s good to know London fashion week was the best EVER; first off, I love the fact that James Long found a clever way to use all fire-retardent blankets!  He spins a new twist by showing gold lame´leggings for men!  I’m entranced with all the lounge-lizard glitter!

And, I saved the “best” for last.

These aliens, er, models are wearing designs from the James Long 2010 collection.
Brought to you by Ludicrous London.  That’s London, as in, the UK, and not the Londone on the south side of Uranus. ( And, this is all the rage for Londoners.  Tells ya something about Gridiron Brown, doesn’t it?)

This fashionista says, I saw one of these liztards crawl under my wood pile
just last week!

I’m that dowdy girl next door

Yes, I’m thatdowdygirl who gets sand kicked in her face at the beach. Yes, I have long, brown straight hair, moustache, beady eyes. And bangs. I wear glasses and I’m brainy. No, I didn’t go to my Senior prom. Who’ll take the girl with the skinny legs? This dowdy girl is mental, like in cerebral, not nucking futz or interested in fashion, hats, nail polish, or the newest kitchen gadget. I live on the sidelines.  I didn’t learn early on the fine art of flirting, wearing 4-inch high heels, or drawing on red blubbery lips. No, thisdowdygirl takes after Sybil Shepard -wears flats – not the gorgeous looks. I pick at my food, spend more time on the bathroom throne fighting off the effects of nerves. I ruminate a lot, too. What the hell is wrong with me?!?! I’m not that freakin’ ugly. Just plain vanilla. You know, when it comes to ice cream, plain vanilla is more appealing than, let’s say, some dum old banana split with strawberry, chocolate, peppermint, and salmon ice scream, artificial cherries (avec branch on one end), glob of whipped cream out of the can, smothered in, well, nuts. Thank you very much.  Plus, vanilla goes with everything [grrr].
