I do realise that many of you look to this distinguished blog for a lead on various aspects of your lives including, perhaps especially, the very latest in fashion trends. Of course, this mostly applies to the ladies but even you chaps require some guidance as to what's in, what's out, what's up, what's down in the fashion world lest, when you're dozing off on 'the husband's couch' which so many thoughtful dress-shops provide these days, your wife suddenly returns from the dressing-room and does a whirl in front of you in some concoction and asks you what you think? By and large, falling off the couch shrieking in hysterical laughter is not a good idea! Now, to be honest, I am not perhaps the most qualified guide when it comes to the arcane mysteries of ladies' fashions. For that sort of thing I am utterly reliant on my very good e-friend, 'Sister Wolf', aka, 'Big Sis', who, as they say 'over there', tells it the way it is - so be warned!
On her always scintillating blog she offers up a keen critique of the latest fashion in designer denim which she sums up thus: "the most hideous, fucked up denim monstrosities ever to blight this earth". Er, yes, quite so, 'Big Sis', but I can't say that when the 'Memsahib' strides out of the changing-room and does a twirl in front of me wearing this, er, latest creation:
Mind you, I can't argue with 'Big Sis' over her description of this outfit which she describes as "The real job of hideous denim is to mock the consumer on all levels. I’d say this Junya outfit is a ten out of ten."
I understand that the 'Rosa Klebb' shoes do include the 4" blades we all enjoyed seeing in that old Bond movie! However, for all you big babies out there, and that includes you chaps, you could always indulge yourselves with some denim rompers:
'Big Sis' sums this item up in question form: "What about something really, really stupid and embarrassingly twee, like a denim romper?" And guess what, it only costs $2,490! As part of her service to Mankind, 'Big Sis' has another site dedicated to hideous denim which she has wittily entitled, er, Hideous Denim. This is the current creation, I use the term loosely, on offer:
They are an absolute snip at only $895 and, this is the clincher, they are an absolute favourite of Mr. Justin Bieber, need I say more? Apart perhaps from who the fuck is Justin Bieber? 'Sister Wolf' closes this particular post with the following words:

File under: what WERE they thinking of?

$2490?
I am pretty sure I just bought my grand-daughter a pair of denim rompers just like those, in ASDA, for about £4.50. She looks very smart in them, but then she is only 19 months old.
Fools and their money, eh?

I suspect, Cuffers, that they don't 'do' thinking!
Andrew, I don't want to see you in 'The Sun - We Love It!' caught wearing your grand-daughter's rompers, I mean, they're just not your colour!

$2490 for a pair of ragged denim trousers.
If you tried giving them to the Salvos you'd get the sex and travel advice.

Well hang it all! I thought I had today's wardrobe all laid out and someone has to put the pictures on line! Now what? Stay in my skivvies and bathrobe all day and blog away my upset?
Pardon the exclamation marks. Some days!

"sex and travel advice". You Aussies are so delicate!
Oh, come out of the closet, Whiters, and show us what the well-dressed man of NC is wearing these days!

David, you may have seen the ongoing saga here in NC about who or what is allowed to go into which bathroom to do what? It is unbelievable. The well dressed man in NC had better have alternative accessories with his wardrobe or else!

Yip, life sure is confusin' these days!

Duffers the Salvos are far too polite to tell you to fuck off.
