Your Opinion on Fashion!

Dear Reader,

If you have spotted an interesting new trend, found a cool fashion revival, or spotted Croc shoes *shudders* or some other fashion atrocity, feel free to express yourself on this blog!
Send the topic, your text, and/or copyright-free images to me at dame_nimoue@yahoo.com (with "Blog" in the subject line), and I will most likely post it!
Please, nothing terribly obscene.

Stocking and Leg Apparell....

Hello, lovely reader. I am back to gripe about the latest trends I have been seeing. I thought it was isolated to my small college campus, but I observed the same sinister trends playing out in the Big Apple. Leg warmers. They are back. BAD! BAD HUMANS! Stockings under shorts? That died in the the '90's! What is wrong with people? I guess this separates the posers from the truly fashion-conscious.
Ugh. It burns my bohemian soul. If you find yourself leaning towards these trends, do what I do. Think to yourself: "Would it fit in a 1980's movie?". If you get visions of Madonna traipsing around in it, put the object of consideration down, step back, and think of corsets.
Corsets and skirts ala the 1940's. The nipped waist-skirts, the cute cute shoes.

A dash of bitter from the sweet.

Hello all. Although at this point it seems that no one is reading my blog, I am going to continue my rantings and fun.
What is going on with popular music lately? Before you all roll your eyes, know that yes, most of us are generally displeased, I have a specific complaint. Apparently singers think that it is more appealing to throw their voices into the backs of their throats to make them sound like 12-year-old girls. I know that sex sells, but this is too much: suggestive songs being squeezed out by a chick who sounds as though she skipped puberty? Puh-leeze. Good job, American media.
At least the British singers sound like women. Somehow, even in the (awesome) music that you hear in Bollywood movies, the women who sing with hyper-high vocal ranges still sound like women. What does this mean? It means that it is time for a music revolution.
