Palate cleanser

Just to get back to the reason this blog exists.

Besides Pope bashing.

Nah it couldn't be.....could it?

So when we market a dress we often talk about what it reminds you of. For example when we made the flowing Anna Lucia belted shirt dress we said it reminded you of "I Love Lucy" especially when we made it in polka dots.

One of the shows we often cite is AMC's "Mad Men." Many of our dresses are reminiscent of the look of the sixties. Sometimes we see a dress and get an inspiration as to a design to work off of to create a new style.

So imagine our surprise when we saw what Joan Holloway was wearing in the episode this past Sunday. She was wearing our "Rosemarie Ruffle Dress!" HOLY CRAP! Did the costume designer for the show rip off one of our dresses?

Lately a couple of other plus designers have ripped off some of our designs and we know that several costume designers follow us on twitter and Facebook. So it is very conceivable that they adapted one of our original designs to use on the show. That's fashion for you. Everybody rips everybody off.

Life imitating Art. Or Art imitating Life. Or something.

This is our dress.

Peter Campbell must die!

I mean what will Lorelai do when she finds out. The last anybody saw of her she was either getting butt fucked by the Bad Santa or giving a puffy drugged up Chandler Bing a handjob in that failed series about a phony SNL in LA that lasted about a month.

Now her sweet young innocent daughter is having her perky teats fondled by a 1960's advertising weasel for the prurient pleasures of a bunch of dirty old men on the internet who are whacking their bags looking at her porcelain young ti......errr.....errr.....let me rethink this for a minute.

Pete Campbell must die!

Now he is sitting on his couch in his office rubbing one out while he dreams that Rory will be coming in with a trenchcoat and wearing nothing else but pearls and stockings and a garter.

It is not enough that he got his cocktail weiner in her Stars Hallow a couple of times but now he has to throw it in our face.

It was just like all the times that fuckin' old douche Bob Hope used to fondle Joey Heatherton's ass while they were on a USO tour or something.

It just ain't right!

Holy Crap...Pete Campbell is sticking it in her Stars Hollow!

It is really weird when people end on TV shows where they don't belong.

This week on Mad Men that douche Pete Campbell was banging his neighbors wife the young girl from "Gilmore Girls." WTF? Is he gonna go to pitch an account in Brooklyn Heights and have a three way with Patty Duke and her identical cousin?

She lives in my neighborhood you know. She even came in the store once.

Didn't buy anything though.

Bitch.

I take it back.

I hope he gives her herpes or something.

Did they have herpes back in 1966?

So whose the coolest guy on TV!?

Our new poll:

Whose the coolest guy on TV today?

Raylan Givens and his stupid hat.

Mr. Reese with his stupid suit.

Don Draper with his stupid cigarette.

Trooper York with his stupid.....err....his stupid...err.....everything!

You make the call.

Blake doesn't get it....

Also, that chick everyone's so ga-ga about...Joan Holloway? Hendricks? She's hyooge by Hollywood/Fashion standards. Size 14 at least. 30" waist, again, at least. She could eat Marilyn.

And she don't look nothin' like the female athletes with similar height/weight stats.

Seriously?

Did you ever get the feeling....

That you really wouldn't want to go to a party at Don Draper's house?

Hey I just got an email

I just got an email.

I have to stop making fun of Sally Draper.

Or else!

Sorry about that chief.

I have just been too busy to really write up any posts that I am willing to put here. I mean I will throw out a comment or two between customers but I can't give enough thought or effort to a post that I feel like posting for youse guys.

Plus there was a "Man from U.N.C.L.E." marathon and you know what that means.

I am relaxing today but am going Mad tonight!

We took the day off today so blogging and commenting are light.

But we are getting ready for the season premiere of Mad Men on AMC tonight.

I know our cousin Ron is all ready to go. He emailed me that he is already sitting in front of the TV naked and covered in butter while he is waiting for his first glimpse of Joan.

Enjoy!

Well if you are going to play this game... go ahead you can stare at them....just as long as you vote for them!

"That's right. Stare all you want. Look at them. You love them don't you? Yeah they are pretty cool. So if you like them.....well you should vote for them."

" And thanks to the Fluffy Guy who already voted one hundred and forty times."

We got this in the bag!

"We have this in the bag!'

"Great. Let's get in the bag."

"What did you call me an old bag?"

"No I called you an Old Maid."

"Well fuck you!'

"If you do that then you won't be an Old Maid."

"Another round!"

Seriously, put that away

"Seriously, you call that a penis. Put that away. I didn't divorce my husband fot that. I think I better give Rocky a call. I can make him happy. Or be Happy. Or something."

I am up here Paul.....hello

"I have really missed you Joan."
"Really that is very nice of you to say Paul"
"Yes indeed. In fact late at night I often look at the company photo where are standing in front of everyone. You know the one that Peggy started all the gossip about."
"I am up here Paul....Hello!"
"Oh yes sorry. Say do you like Ernst Borgnine movies?"

Cut the crap!

"I don't have time for this."

"Cut the crap."

"Have them come to my office. Bring the Ann Margaret photos and the storyboards. Oh and three cartons of cigarettes and two bottle of scotch."

Hey we have more Joan Holloway coming your way!

The wife has been preparing a post about five outfits that Joan Holloway wore on MadMen and how you can recreate it with a contemporary twist.

Never Say Diet liked it so much that they are featuring it on IVillage (the main NBC site) next week. I will keep you posted.

It is very exciting.

Pleased to meet ya!

The wife will be doing a blog on Joan Holloway and the way she dresses and how you can approximate the look without breaking the bank.

A lot of women have expressed admiration for her look. What they are doing is pretty simple. They are finding clothes that fit in great fabrics. I know it is hard to do these days with the limited selection in the stores, but it is still possible.

Don't you guys have some work to do?

Don't you guys have some work to do? Or are you gonna spend all your time staring at my tits? You must have an ad campaign to do. Better yet, it's almost April 15th. Shouldn't you be doing your taxes. I bet my accountant is busy working and not thinking about tits. Big luscious creamy tits. With aureoles like piquant cherries. What kind of perverts are you guys. Jeeez.

Have another cocktail there buddy.

Yes even old drunk impotent men like to look at my tits. It is from their childhood. They want to see if a "White Russian" will come out. Sorry pal.
