I love this idea- looking at how the country engineered fashion. I love the Victoria and Albert, and I would totally move to London and go all the time if I could. (still in college, but maybe someday!)
I see the lasting treasures of East German fashion here every time I wander into a vintage shop. I think the furniture (or some of it at least) was cooler...
So wait, are we supposed to be recessionista chic or cat-eyed wheaten-terrier-clutching ninjaladies? Or both? When is the Two Minutes' Hate? Is it too early for Freedom Gin?
I love that Obama has a sense of humor and it doesn't seem forced. Some go on the Daily Show with quips in their back pocket. Barack just rolls with it.
Ugh, not entirely related, but I just have to get it out there. My absentee ballot application got screwed up by the powers that be and now they've told me about it too late to allow me time to apply for another. So basically I don't get to cast my vote for this man. :( And I'm even in a swing state! I've been thoroughly upset about it all day.
@ohnokids: Oh girl, I am so sad for you. I would be just miserable about this. Can you volunteer like a maniac over the next few days? Shoot a known Republican with a 24-hour tranquilizer? Something?
@ohnokids: Can you vote on a provisional ballot? Or do you not live in the state in which you are registered? A lot of times, they'll let you vote at your designated polling place, which you can find on the Secretary of State's website.
That was freakin' hilarious. I haven't seen the Daily Show in years, (now I don't even have my TV plugged in!) but I wish I had time to watch the whole episode before I go to class today (I don't). I just don't want to get too excited about the election because I really got burned in 2004 (I was John Kerry's biggest fangirl).
I hope Obama manages to slip "polar bears" into his acceptance speech. I loved the way he said it, so reassuring and steady and comforting, and at the same time quietly jovial.
Obama makes me feel good, too! His confidence and quiet intelligence is soothing and inspiring at the same time.
I was watching McCain on some clip last night and all I could think was, "When did you sell your soul, old man?" He used to be okay. Sigh. Then the had to stop thinking for himself and go all hard Republicany.

Jeebus, I wish! Tell me more. I want a functional everyday uniform that doesn't involve high heels, thongs, or anything else worn by the Kardashians.
