you like Pez?
That terrified me even before I saw the price.
Kaylee: So how many fell madly in love with you and wanted to take you away from all this? Inara: Just the one. I think I'm slipping.

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

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
My problem with the non-black shoes was mostly the hosiery, which wouldn't be a problem with non-black sandals, I admit. But it always made me nuts to wear navy shoes with a different color navy socks and aNOTHER color navy pants. BAH.

I am always perplexed by women who seem to have matched not just jacket, skirt, and hat, but jacket, skirt, hat, shoes, and purse, all in the same (non-black) color. It's usually a color like lime green or bright pink, or some other shade that I can't imagine owning that much of, period, let alone all in one outfit.
I always wonder if these people have several matched sets of shoes and purses, or if they only ever wear lime green.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Oooh, I like. Shiny! And it's Pez! The only think not to like is the price. Bah.

But they're Swarvoski crystals.

Yeah, people are perplexing. I think they do have several sets of matching whatnot.

Given the sample of my neighbors in formal sunday wear, this. I'm frankly rather impressed. My main coordination rule is it doesn't look stupid like my closet threw up on me.

You know what baffles me? Women who write novels and/or sex scenes in which the hero is turned on by the fact that the heroine's bra and panties match.
I think this is an issue that resonates deeply for women, but not so much for men. Once you're to the bra-and-panty stage, it's time for underwear to start hitting the ceiling fan anyway.

Me too. Mainly by the matching purse element -- if I had the space and money, I'd have many shoes in many many colors as well. But I haven't anywhere near the necessary patience to switch purses every day.

I've seen purse gadgets to solve this -- basically, there's an inner purse container that holds your wallet, pen, cellphone, and whatnot, and you just move the container from purse to purse.
Me? No. Sometimes my purse clashes with my dress, adn I am too lazy to do anything about this.
