There's more than one way to skin a cat. And I happen to know that's factually true.

"If my daughter had the body to wear it, I'd let her!"

This, I found disturbing on a couple of levels.

"You couldn't dance in that dress - actually, you couldn't do anything at all,"

This I found oddly sweet, 'cause... actually, yeah, you could.

"This dress would look great at a prom if the model in the picture wore it," says senior Vlaz Ermant, "but we don't have any girls like that at our school."

And this, I admit, just made me laugh.

That dress is appalling if it's targeted to teenage girls, which, apparently, it is. Yeesh. I mean, I don't think much of it for grown-up people either, but, whatever.

ETA:

gownless evening strap

Ha!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Karmann Ghia

eta: damn, y'all are nattering fast tonight.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I think I like my prom dress (link 1) better than the Karmann Ghia, but I can see the Ghia's appeal.

$495! That's the most shocking bit.

But I'll take one of that first dress, sure thing.

I think your Prom Dress Link 1 sitting next to me in a Karmann Ghia would be pretty neat. Who is it, anyway? Or was it just random pretty?

Which, at $495, is a steal.

Marat Safin, Australian Open champion, all-purpose hottie with a fierce self-deprecating sense of humour -- "Never give up. Last year I was trying to give up but I couldn't."

Plus, nummy. Or did I already say that? And speaks fluent Spanish, in addition to his native Russian.

You didn't have to, really; the link spoke for you. And, hmm. Tennis. Perhaps I've given too short shrift (not our shrift) to tennis in my time.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

"I was shocked when I first saw it, but now it's one of our top 20 dresses nationwide," says Nick Yeh, the CEO of Xcite, the Stafford, Texas, company that designed the dress and some 200 other styles this season.

Uh, yeah right. First, it's January.
