    I fully approve of the dizzy heiress look, but you must act the part. I require the starlets to buy lion cubs as pets, and fly airplanes, and stake their Pulitzers on things.

    I am jealous of your vintage dress, Sadie. The only vintage clothes I ever find in decent condition are 50s (with waists too tiny for me) and later!

    Can there be a "dizzy heiress" tag? Though, "like baby" is cute as well.

    Read that as vaginias. Have officially studied enough for today.

    Wait, I thought the dominance of ultra-safe old Hollywood glamour rose with the rise of the Joan Rivers' and tabloid weeklys?

    @HanaMaru: Basically... I miss the days of Cher's crzy headresses and whoever it was that wore a dress made out of credit cards. It may not be beautiful, but it is definitely more entertaining than looking at 100 variations of a satin fishtail gown.

    @LaFemme: There's hardly any bad fashion because there's such intense policing of it. I wish crazy creative stuff like that was celebrated more. That's why I cheer on Bai Ling from my couch.

    @HanaMaru: It was Lizzie Gardener, 1994, she is an Aussie costume designer (Pricilla was the movie). As an Aussie I am proud of her, because we like to do things a little differently. Here is a link to a replica of the dress (Can't find ANY of her in it??) [farm3.static.flickr.com]

    If Hollywood was so intent on comforting me, maybe they should have dressed like my mom.


    She does not wear slinky dresses.

    I'm afraid this look is too billowy for me. I need more structured stuff. Also, all of that satin and other light and airy fabrics freak me out. I do not need the entire world to know the condition of my nipples.
