The Keffiyeh; When it's 94 degrees outside and you're wearing your grandmother's antique doily around your neck just because fashion magazine douchebags think it's "hip", it might be time to rethink your look.

Arya Stark 09-19-2009 04:06 PM

You read my mind.

I was going to put that up.

I would hit that, and give her another pearl necklace to wear.








But no, really, it is kind of ridiculous looking.
There's no reason to have that many "best mardi-gras" beads around your neck. The woman is clearly trying to divert attention.

What's all this hate given to high heels? :( They are not everyday wear but some look fantastic on a woman.

I don't want to be the one to say this, but you're the last person who needs to be around a woman in high heels.

;)

















Ohhh come on don't get all pissy. You know I'm screwin' with you.

I'm not pissy at all but why would that be? do I come across as some old fella desperately pining for female attention due to my advancing years? Oh wait a minute....

Nah you're quite OK.
's long as you don't mind standing on your toes to get a kiss.






No really, I'm in the same boat.
Only 5 feet 8 and a date wearing high heels is like a slap in the face. Fortunately they're not very tall horizontally. Eehh? ehhhhhh?

Sigh...
I'm ronely.

I have never stood on my toes to get a kiss yet. Always make sure they are 5' 3" or less then the heels don't matter so much! And if you are shorter then when it's horizontally then use that deficit to slide up a couple of more inches rofl. She can be 6 foot tall but if the hands are small then you always look big anyhow ;)

i agree, i love my heels, although i should probably be the last person wearing them :laughing: but i totally agree they look fantastic & they give a woman some amount of confidence sometimes.

You must be about 6' in your heels! I hate being short as it is!

I can imagine...

Heaps of confidence is a result of looking as though you could stomp any ordinary man/woman into the ground.

Agreed. But they only work for certain people.

There's nothing more horrifying than a fat woman in high heels. It looks like bad cottage cheese.

Of course it does but then that goes for a man wearing a vest with coat hanger shoulders.

Say thanks to the kind of woman who turns your perfectly natural fantasy of large boobs into a disgusting nightmare.

It might be fun. I'd try it.

She'd definitely prove invaluable if you were planning on a romp while driving and you got into an accident but didn't have airbags...

I wouldn't like to be under those when that strap breaks.

Vanilla, do you not like this fashion choice because she's one of right-track's "Orange People" (below) or because you don't like the garish contrast between the orange skin and the bright, lemon-yellow clothing?

Hmm. Amazing coincidence. *I'm* 5 feet 8 inches tall.

Heh.

VEGANGELICA'S VIEW ON FASHION:
The only fashion trends I dislike, really, are the ones in which people hurt their own bodies or others' in the name of vanity. For example,
--high heels are bad for people's feet, spines, etc.;
--body piercings create small, unnecessary wounds (I avoid acquiring additional, unneeded holes in my body whenever possible);
--hair permanents use toxic chemicals that harm both hair stylists and those whose hair is being permed;
--make-up is often made with byproducts of animals and tested on rabbits causing them pain and suffering;
--sun tans represent UV damage to DNA causing the skin to react by increasing melanin production;
--bras, especially underwire, may increase certain health risks by reducing lymphatic drainage (“Premenopausal women who do not wear bras had less than half the risk of breast cancer compared with bra wearers.” (Hsieh, C.C. and D. Trichopoulos, D. Eur. J. Cancer 27:131-5 1991).
--unpragmatic fashion trends such as people getting their hair cut every month for usually $20 per pop (which includes most men). Getting your hair cut short frequently seems very unpragmatic to me since if you grow your hair longer you have...
(1) acquired built-in sun protection (no more Red Necks);
(2) saved $200 per year and purchased perhaps just one additional bottle of shampoo for a couple bucks.
My feelings on men with short hair, however, may be biased by the fact that my favorite fashion trend was Tricorner hats on men with ponytails. A Tricorner hat is very pragmatic, by the way: it protects you from the sun *and* funnels away water so that it spills to the sides over your shoulder!

Hiya, AwwSugar,
Yep...but I've never seen the movie, so I don't know the reason the orange person is strolling around in that yellow dress. I don't mind the yellow dress. However, as I mentioned in my diatribe against bras, I think she should lose the bra to maintain good lymphatic flow.
--Veg

Arya Stark 09-20-2009 11:37 AM

Hahaha. Veg. This isn't about the bras. Silly.

The Unfan 09-20-2009 12:10 PM

I agree with Vegangelica. More women should be naked.
