LOL!<BR/><BR/>Tawny - forgot to mention I recently got an idea for a para/chicklit type thing with a young woman whose PI grandfather's ghost gets her to help solve his last case. Which is odd since I don't write para, chicklit, or in first person. But that's how the story showed up in my head. I'll need to pick up your book to see how that kind of thing works.

I love Clinton and Stacy so I'm sure after a few days with them, you'd have the perfect genre to fit you frame! <BR/><BR/>I didn't get a handle on any kind of fashion sense until my 30s. And I'm still not that great at it but I'm better at knowing how to dress my body. Thanks again to all those make-over shows.<BR/><BR/>I blame 12 years of Catholic school. When you were that uniform for your entire childhood, you don't have much call for developing a style of any kind.<BR/><BR/>I admit I wore LA Gears in my Sr. pictures and I wore jeans with the knee ripped out. Thankfully I never did the parachute pants but I did have the spandex capris and colorful bermudas. Gotta love those 80s. LOL!<BR/><BR/>Oh, and historic western erotic?

It wa...Hey there Emily and Tawny!<BR/><BR/>I loved your blog! It was great having you here! You brought back memories of funny things I used to wear. I was into leather fringe in the 70's. My mom even bought me a leather fringe jacket that had fringe all along the arms, pockets, and bottom edge of the jacket. It was so cool!<BR/><BR/>O.k. one fashion faux pas was when I was maybe 11 or 12 and wearing loose underwear on a warm summer day. Of course, I was always running to and from the school bus. So the one time I run off the school bus I was sweating, on my period, wearing a skirt, and of course, you know what falls out of my underwear as I am running across the yard to my front door. Yep! The dreaded pad. Yep again! In front of the school bus as it drove by after letting us off. What a dope I was! Of course I turned around and picked it up, didn't even think while I did it. I bet everyone on the bus got a laugh! Never, ever wear loose underwear when it is hot out. Fashion Rule no. 1<BR/><BR/>One thing to remember is never wear flip-flops on a rainy day. I did one time and walked into a grocery store and fell in front of all the cash registers. Everyone went silent, while inhaling their breath, and me, I am beat red from embarassment, try to get up and slip some more. O.k. never, ever wear flip-flops when it is wet out! Fashion rule no. 2!<BR/><BR/>Hope my little life experiences have helped you all out!<BR/>This was fun, let's do it again!<BR/><BR/>Michele L. zzz.....Michele L.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15827059770508809460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4542417548623715196.post-17288688903490405052008-05-04T17:27:00.000-05:002008-05-04T17:27:00.000-05:00bamabelle, even my early 20s were a fashion disast...bamabelle, even my early 20s were a fashion disaster.

I used to make the shoulder-pads look even worse by ripping out the shoulder pads. <BR/><BR/>Christie, I trust Gemma's taste implicitly. She won't do you wrong. :D<BR/><BR/>Virginia - I didn't confess my at-home attire. ;) Unfortunately, I can't wear my Pink Floyd t-shirts and my sweatpants to my dayjob. As soon as I'm home, though, everything stylish comes off and I dive into the play clothes.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4542417548623715196.post-75341588749107620112008-05-04T17:21:00.000-05:002008-05-04T17:21:00.000-05:00Thanks, Faye!

My most vivid 80s fashion memories are of legwarmers and neon shoestrings as a popular hair accessory LOL.<BR/><BR/>Gemma - thanks again for having us. :) I wear Uggs, too, but I try to limit my wearing to wintertime. It's the miniskirts/Uggs and the sweatpants/Uggs combo that mkes me cringe! (Here's an embarrassing fashion confession: the only pair of boots I own are a pair of Uggs. How's that for a fashion faux pas?)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4542417548623715196.post-73120169344392059882008-05-04T17:12:00.000-05:002008-05-04T17:12:00.000-05:00I guess I am not much into fasion.

It's better than when I was a kid and my grandma used to shop at a store called Pretty and Plump. LOL. <BR/><BR/>I'm not sure what I'd put as a fashion faux pas. In the 9th grade, I had to wear these legging suits. It would be a long sleeved shirt with small shoulder pads and matching pants. So, the color might be magenta or orange or red or similar. Ugghh. I am fairly tall so I also wore jeans in high school that weren't quite long enough. They didn't completely flood, but they were borderline and I had huge white high-top sneakers. Bad...<BR/><BR/>In college, my roommate called my fashion sense eclectic. I wasn't sure what she meant by that, but I can now agree with it. I tend to buy things on sale whenever I can so my style can be interesting at times. Sadly, I took fashion classes after I graduated from college and considered getting a second degree in fashion, but I was fairly lazy and pattern-making was difficult for me. The thing is you would never suspect me to be a fashionista because I am not trendy. Maybe it was the fact that I only wanted to design bridal wear and costumes, so I never quite learned how to be well put together.Vivienne Westlakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18088151138842469476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4542417548623715196.post-36337127597871120192008-05-03T20:03:00.000-05:002008-05-03T20:03:00.000-05:00Lol, great post!

There was the leg warmers with a mini skirt phase, the year of the concert t-shirt, and the fashion don't du jour, MC Hammer pants. It's amazing that I ever dated lol.bamabellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15986745648983981412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4542417548623715196.post-44791484092639144332008-05-03T18:31:00.000-05:002008-05-03T18:31:00.000-05:00Thanks so much for coming to hang out with us, lad...Thanks so much for coming to hang out with us, ladies! <BR/><BR/>"What Not to Write" - I love it! What a funny idea. I'm sure the Stacy and Clinton of publishing would have a few things to say about some of my early attempts. <BR/><BR/>My fashion confession... I wear uggs. Sorry! But I live in a beach town and we all wear them here. They're sooooo comfy on those winter nights. But I will say I never let stinky happen and I don't ever do the mini skirt/uggs combo. <BR/><BR/>~GemmaGemma Hallidayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04677167276575234867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4542417548623715196.post-84613270396348039442008-05-03T17:32:00.000-05:002008-05-03T17:32:00.000-05:00Ah, the 80s and all things Flashdance.
