You think you know me?

I enjoy writing about what I see. I enjoy seeing changes in fashion everyday. We as people are not only evolving in life, but our fashion is following the evolution. I enjoy painting when time allows. I also enjoy my two dogs that keep me on my toes at all times. Watch out when you have a wine glass near them, they are winos. Where did they get that from?? Who knows.

"Mother may I borrow your fannypack?"


This blog is meant to be fashion inspiring. The blog will not consist of worst dressed articles. You will not be seeing me making fun of the countless horrifying outfits of the celebrities. This being stated, I am about to break my rule. I am going to write ONE blog about something I detest. Never would I have thought to make this a blog topic. My close friend however brought this topic to my attention, and requested my thoughts. I followed her request with a sharp no.  This though was not the end. My mind has been thinking about it for weeks now. So here we go….. FANNY PACKS.  Even with my very open mind, I can not understand this concept. Upon seeing a fanny pack a few questions are raised. First, when adding volume to your stomach, as a woman, does this make you feel as though you are hiding your own stomach? If you have nothing to hide, then why add a pouch where there is none? Second, are you that busy, that you need “hands free” everything?  Your shoulder can no longer take on the stress. You need to upgrade to your hips? The process of the fanny pack coming back is a very disturbing one to me. I saw this coming. A few seasons ago I saw the belt with the small pocket hit the streets. My reaction was not that of amusement.  I froze with fear. I knew what to expect. I have to say this normal looking belt, with tiny a pocket was wearable. It was not my favorite, but people could pull it off. There was one problem. These belts were not happy being what they were. I think that something in the L.A. air contaminated them. This led to the mutation. This mutation caused them to grow larger, and reproduce. There is something alarming to the way they sit on you. This little pouch suctioned to your stomach. I am reminded of a parasite attaching to a host. There is a reason we have all seen “Alien”, the reason being is to be warned. I don’t know about you, but I don’t even have parties at my home. I will be host to no one.
Fashion, or alien parasite, you decide.
