june 26, 2008 no offense D&G (after all, who am i??) plaid just reminds me my catholic school uniform. one must be totally committed in order to pull of plaid. such as an overlaid argyle sweater vest as seen in D&Gs fall/winter 08 collection, which was just a lightning round of plaid-tastic ensembles. the plaid opaque stockings are so tempting! looks like ill be increasing my treadmill sessions to look thin in those! one piece added to your outfit wouldn’t hurt, but please, just promise you’ll put the plaid to rest by December – don’t want your outfit to be camouflage to a macy’s window display. at least Dom & Steph didn’t do paisley… psych!
now for the ugly: upon reading the collection description by style.com, “balmoral” caught my eye. assuming it had something to do with plaid/scottish attire (c’mon give me some credit), i went to wikipedia to confirm. my curiosity led to scrolling ..”northern ireland” … “scotland” … wait– “balmoral chicken” ?! “this is a popular Scottish dish comprising chicken breast stuffed with haggis”
wait– what?! haggis? just look it up and get back to me…
Plaid has always been a fan favorite and as for the haggis… well i’m sure its plenty tasty. Doesn’t seem to far off from the things i’ve tried.
