This morning, as I was writing this, I was looking out the french doors that face out to my side yard. It was then that I noticed that most spring colors are derrived from religion. I mean, just ponder this concept for a moment. If spring colors had anything to do with spring itself, it would probably be variations of green. But no, what we see are pastels... which are linked to easter... which is linked to religion. So, really where does that get us? I don't exactly know but I am quite sure that I am tired of pastel pinks, blues, purples, etc. being dragged down the runway and then their residual counterparts showing up at the mainstream retailers like Target. 2010 is a big year. It means that we've spent 10 years in this new millenium and new, fresh colors for spring would be a great way to celebrate a new, fresh era.

I Am a Poodle; Hear Me Yap
It seems to have been a while since I last saw the quick-fix of taking a hair tie and using it to tailor an overly-large T-shirt, but this hideous trend seems to be on the rise--again. I like to call it the poodle, for the wonderful tail it creates.
To start off, "the poodle" was not attractive. Then, on the Fourth of July, I saw something that really sent me off my rocker. Said "something" was this: a girl had taken a sweatshirt and tied it to make it smaller. The tail that resulted from it was no less than four inches long.
This is really just too much. If you know that the sweatshirt or T-shirt you are wearing is over-sized, why even bother wearing it?? You must have something in your wardrobe that is tight and tailored.
I mean, I understand there are dog lovers out there, but please is it necessary to give yourself a tail?! I think not. So, the new dog fad is on rise, but this time, you aren't buying your pooch a sweater.
