Spike's Bitches 36: Did I Sully Our Good Name?  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

2) People wearing clothing that is too small for them and therefore muffin-topping all over the place, which ties in to:

3) Ultra-low-rise jeans. These flatter no one. NO ONE!!!!!

I can see your ass crack!

AND YOUR HOO-HAH!

Seriously.

Trust my rage

I've said it before and I'll say it again, I hate the cammo-cargo-capri-with-drawstring-legs look that I see all over this city.

I don't mind these pants, but I hate them with high heels. Sandals, okay, but the heels do not match!

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

This whole flowy, unstructured, over-the-hips top thing, especially the empire style. I have yet to see those kinds of tops truly flatter a woman with curves.

Again I must ask for the pregnancy exception! Empire-waisted peasant shirts are my friends these days - most maternity tops are ridiculously overpriced and nothing else fits over the belly.

I just got an excellent onesie (gift from a friend's mother) that says "I Already Know More Than The President." Only problem is it's 3-6 months, so I hope he grows into it by November!

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

My objection to flip flops is primarily that I'm seeing them everywhere. I wouldn't wear them because I don't like shoes/sandals with the thing between the toes and I don't want my bare skin coming into contact with the sidewalk. ew.

But I dislike the constant thwap-thwap of people walking in them. And the majority of people seem to wear the rubber ones that, when I was a kid, we wore at the beach. And I really hate that they make almost everyone wearing them walk like they're in the last stage of pregnancy.

But, yes, pregnant ladies get an exemption ... for just about anything, including murder and bitch-slapping the annoying. And SoCal ... it's a different world out there ... and 3,000 miles away, so I don't care.

The shoes I would like to see banned from most public appearances are those mesh-topped Chinese sandals. I don't know if they're trendy outside of NYC, but here they are everywhere, and nobody (white) seems to realize that they are NOT OUTSIDE SHOES. They are SLIPPERS. They are what middle-aged Chinese women wear around the house to do laundry in. They are not meant to be paired with a cocktail dress!

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Again I must ask for the pregnancy exception!

Always granted. If you are actually pregnant, you get to wear whatever the hell you want. Even caftans!

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

They make EVERYBODY look pregnant! That's their problem!

Actually, this trend makes you look statistically NOT pregnant. That's sorta cool.

Unsurprisingly, they're trendy here too. Mostly among the tourists, though.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

1) This whole flowy, unstructured, over-the-hips top thing, especially the empire style. I have yet to see those kinds of tops truly flatter a woman with curves. I like empire, as long as there's structure underneath the bosom. These don't have it.

Heh. I'm wearing such a shirt right now, as a matter of fact.

That said, I don't like those shirts if they're in a fabric that's able to -- almost -- stand away from the body, rather than drape along it (NOT cling to it!), like gauze or even starched cotton, because it makes you look pregnant.

The shirt I'm wearing is a great stretchy jersey that drapes very well, and has a contrasting color band underneath the bosom.

So, really, it's not the kind that juliana dislikes. But her post made me giggle, since, superficially, I *am* wearing that kind of shirt, and it *does* go over my hips.

Oh, wait! Linky: [link] That's the exact shirt. God bless Target.
