Nobody Wants a Mile Long Wedding Veil…

Nobody Notes

I’m NOT a fashionable lady. Even though I had to dress up every single night for work..high heels, velvet dresses, red lipstick, push-up bras..(get your mind up one level…I was an ‘musician’), I would rather have on old jeans or shorts and no shoes at all. If you ask me to go look at pictures taken by Hubble, or go shopping, there would be no contest…I have closets full of clothes, and once in a while, I go look at them, and dream of selling off my whole collection of gowns to have enough money to buy a good telescope.

But fashion is art in many circles, and some of us don’t get it. For instance: Someone made a veil for a wedding dress that is 1.85 miles long. Who is going to marry someone in that dress? For $7,950 I’d say it’s a bargain. And look at it here…how many bugs, and mud stains, and grass stains, and dog doo stains, and rocks rips,  are ruining that veil just for this picture?  You can’t tell me after this picture was taken that the dress is still good. The price should be reduced by half. You’d have to have the ceremony outside and maybe drap it over the grand canyon. Or fall out of a plane…or get married on top of the Empire State Building, and let it hang down the side.

Still…when you consider the other fashion hits of history, maybe a mile long veil isn’t so bad after all….

Ugly Chair: Ugly Purses

Nobody Flashes

This is your ugly chair alert. Someone decided that a chair should have gold charms hanging off the side of it.

No doubt, they were denied a charm bracelet by their mother when they were a child. Maybe it was a boy whose mum didn’t think it would be very becoming for her son to wear charm bracelets. I try not to think about these things, but when they jump out at you, there is not much you can do.

Wait a minute. My own mother once deprived me of a charm when I was about five! We were standing in some store and she was waiting to buy something, and I saw this little tiny silver charm of a bicycle. It’s little petals went around and around as did the wheels and I begged my mother to buy it for me. She turned and said to me, “You know, there are so many children in the world who don’t have anything. There are little babies in Africa…STARVING and they don’t have any toys!” Yes, she used the old liberal “guilt” trip on me.

It was devastating. Not only did I know I would never in my life get to own such a beautiful charm, I also know my mother didn’t love me, and that I was trash for even wanting it. I didn’t eat for…the rest of the day.

Good God. My mother scarred me for life! Is it any wonder that I don’t like to ride bikes? (Nobody is hoping that her readers know she is having too much fun trying to blame her mother.)

Anyway, back to my rant.

Those dorky looking baby brambles on the legs also need explaining.  Just imagine, if someday the world is destroyed by a virus, which eats flesh, and leaves ugly chairs alone.

I’m not going there. Besides, who would FIT in that? Half of America couldn’t even try.

The world has way too many ugly purses and ugly chairs. And speaking of ugly purses, this one is not cheap.Those are real pearls. The skull–I must admit, is nice though. It’s nice that it has at least one redeeming factor.

So, dear reader, if you had to pick between the two…which would you choose?

Which is worth more? The gold charms or the pearls?

Don’t be shy. Just because I think they are both ugly, doesn’t man you don’t think they are really cool. I’m sure YOUR mother would have bought you a charm!

You know what? I don’t think those pearls are real—do you? And as far as we can tell…those gold charms are gold painted fishhooks.

Nobody’s Perfect: Mitt Romney VS Michelle Obama

Nobody’s Perfect

Mitt Romney got hit this week. After prolonging the release of his tax records as long as he possibly could, they were finally released. Many people were shouting, “Hey Mitt…be proud you’re rich! Show us the money!” The other half were saying, “Well, what are you hiding Mitt?”

And sure enough..it was just found out he WAS hiding something. Romney’s Federal Disclosures missed 26 accounts. He was hiding one, or two, or three..or four…bank accounts.

The paper discovered at least 23 overseas accounts on his tax return that were not included on his financial disclosure forms. Among his assets were funds based in what the Times called “low-tax foreign countries such as Bermuda, the Cayman Islands and Luxembourg.”

Not only that…this!

The top donor to former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney’s presidential campaign, investment banking and securities firm, Goldman Sachs, received over $10 billion in emergency lending and bailouts from the Federal Reserve after the 2008 financial meltdown, according to public sources and published reports. Goldman backed Obama for election in 2008, and the firm, like many Wall Street institutions, is now backing Mitt Romney for president.

Nine out of Romney’s top 20 campaign contributors are big Wall Street Banks like Goldman. Six of those nine top contributors received over $161 billion in bailouts. Goldman leads in Romney’s donation, but  Bain donated $327,000 to his campaign. Add George Soros telling the world there is no difference between Romney and Obama, well..just imagine how Obama is going to use this?

And speaking of Obama….it seems he’s married a serial thong abuser.

Our second contestant for having a problem with NOT acting like a big Marie Antoinette diva, is his wife, Michelle.

 It was reported by the Telegraph in Britain (just to let you know how controlled OUR media is here) that our Queen Michelle took Qatar’s Queen Sheikla Mozah out shopping for lingerie at Agent Provocateur’s Madison Avenue shop. The bill came to around $50,000 which to the King of Quatar is like 45 cents.  Of COURSE…the White House denies it.
*****

You know, I can see our Presidents wanting to impress the King and Queen of Qatar.  Qatar is now the location of U.S. Central Command’s Forward Headquarters and the Combined Air Operations Center. In 2010, Qatar had the world’s highest GDP per capita, while the economy grew by 19.40%, the fastest in the world.

What is not cool, is that they had to close down Madison Avenue just so the two Queens could go shopping.

As you can see…in addition to the thongs Michelle bought Obama some really cool sexy undershirts. But still…

Making half the city close down just so you can go shopping is more an action of a King than a President.  

And I know…many of you say that “Joyanna…Snopes says this was a hoax!”

Right. Okay. Sure. Next time she leaves three hours before her husband on Air Force Two to go to Qatar, I’ll remember that. 

There is no winner in this weeks contest.

Both Romney and Michelle were trying to hide their wealth and power. Nobody is used to it by now.

And I don’t know about you, but I’m having trouble picturing either one of those women in a thong. Do NOT look at this picture.

Fashion Evolution: Not Always a…good thing.

Nobody Flashes

Hot off the fashion beat: Are you tired of wearing old tee-shirts from your 2000 vacation at Daytona Beach? Do those jeans that you bought ten years ago…look like something Don Imus would wear to a barbecue? Do you have to jump up and down and yell “HEY, SOMEBODY WANT TO HELP ME? ” when you walk into Neiman’s? Is it getting hard to compete with all those fifteen year olds who wander the streets in bikini tops?

Do you JUST need a change? Now that you have figured out you might never have the money for a boob job, what other remedies can you possibly go for to get that important rush of “wow” look at HER, that you need …ladies?

Well, I’m here to help. Here’s some really great fashions, just come in from Italy.  All genius. One for a rainy day, one to wear as a hint that “Honey, it’s Valentine’s Day.” and you really need a present, and the third…shows you how hard at work our scientists are at inventing the best breast that money can’t buy.

The accesories, are also…very important. If it’s going to rain, you definitely need cool looking sunglasses.  I suggest wearing the banana shoes with any of these fine creations, because WHEN you fall over, and you will, you can actually say, “Oh…I slipped on a banana peel!” Oh..my!  Lady GAGA, eat your heart out.

Nobody’s Perfect: High Fashion VS Wal-Mart Fashion

Nobody’s Perfect

I admit…I used to buy Vogue every month. And most of the time, you could picture yourself walking down the street in some dress or even some funky hat, because you’d be VOGUE.

And now, Vogue has come into men’s lives.

So, forgive me today for indulging in the wonderment of…I’m not sure you would call this “art” it’s just that, now we are all aware that the Republican race is again going into “Both men are evil” scenarios and by the time they get to debating Obama, he won’t have much left to do to defeat either Mitt or Gingrich. But then, we all knew this would happen, didn’t we? Having this stuff on day after day is going to stress us all out more than we care to think about. 

Much like the pictures of these men: Stressed out is not the word I would use. I’m not sure if it’s the swollen knee pads, or the little black bow tie that really turns me on..but if I had to pick, I’d go with the guy who says there’s plenty to go around.

Anyway, while we all knew our politics were going to get crazy, I had NO idea that men’s fashion was going to get..this bad. I refuse to judge this one. You decide.

Let’s compare: High Fashion VS Wal-Mart.
