Moron of the Day :Happy Holidays All!

Here we go again. There is never a day that will pass, that someone will not surprise me with how dense and inane they can be. Here we go for today's imbecile of the day.

Thanksgiving Day! (at work, no fun, at all.)

(Customer, speaking first)

"Are you open today?"

"Why, yes, we are, please come in."

(Now, this is what my mind is saying.)

No, we are not open. The door is wide open with the cool November Breeze coming in, because we are closed right now. I am only standing in the shop, organizing and aligning merchandise because we are OBVIOUSLY closed and I am here doing all of this, with the door wide open, because we are closed, on Thanksgiving Day.

(Customer, again.)

"Oh, I did not think you were open."

There's No End to the Stupidity

Moron of the Day Award goes to.....

All stores have policies. Please make sure you read these policies prior to purchase.

If you have buyers remorse, that is not a reason to return an item, if you realized that you just used your rent money to buy these 450$ boots, also not my problem. If you spilled your Malibu and Coke all over your leather bag and want a new one you are sadly mistakin'.

So today, I said to myself, is going to be a good day. I will make some people happy, but not everybody happy, of course. Another foreigner, who thinks she is special and does not need to abide to the shops rules comes in. Frantic as ever. This is how it goes from here:

"Do you work here, miss?" (No, I don't, I'm coming out of the backroom and greeting you because i just hang out in random shops.)

"Yes, I do, do you need something today?"

"I am very annoyed. I bought this bag last night and everywhere I go I am getting stopped by security for my bag to be checked."

"I'm sorry, I don't quite understand."

"You know, the beep, beep when you go through those bars." "I think there is a hidden security device in this bag, can you inspect it and remove it please?"

"Oh, I'm so sorry. That has never been brought to my attention before, do you perhaps have something in your bag that is doing this, a wallet maybe, or something else that is triggering these alarms?"

"No! This has never happened before? So now, I am stuck with this bag? Can you inspect it?"

"Miss, we do not use any security tapes or anything like that, there is nothing in there. Being from this city, I know there are a lot of shops, that the alarms go off for any apparent reason and yes, it is annoying."

"So I have to keep it, I love it but it's ao annoying!"

"Im sorry this is not a valid reason for me to accept a return, also all sale items are final, there are no exchanges on it regardless of the reason, I am sorry."

"Well, if there's nothing you can do then there's nothing you can do! I just have to tell you how annoying this is and many others will be back with this problem I am sure!" "Why are you selling this bag if it makes noises?"

"I really am sorry you are having this problem with this bag, I assure you this does not happen normally and perhaps these alarms are ultra-sensitive."

See what I deal with. This woman came here to tell me she was annoyed. Well, she was annoying, so annoying that I dedicated a spot on my blog for her stupidity and arrogance.

Who does she think she is? And, for the record, there are two of those bags left on sale, we have had those bags for about a year and no one has brought it back telling me this drama story of alarms and bells!

Another Project Runaway... Sky BLUE Sky

Project Runaway.....AGAIN. What is going on here? Absolutely repugnant and offensive all at the same time. Some of these garments look like an arts and crafts- junior high school project, or worse.

Am I being a little bleak or am I not? I am so disappointed in last night's PR. 2 Looks in Blue was the name of the challenge, The designers, and I use that term loosely, were to create a look with two shades of blue, to be a "Sky" inspired look! Well, I was sure blue after watching these catastrophes strutting down the runway.

How on earth the judges thought this look was appealing and cohesive with the Macys INC label is beyond my comprehension. This outfit looks like something you would find in a discount store on Delancey Street or at the Fulton Mall in Brooklyn. Look at that hideous cut.....then that fabric, this screams CHEAP, not chic. What is wrong with these judges? Now is this really supposed to be a look for a sophisticated, fashion-forward woman? Maybe a 17 or 18 year old girl can get away with this tawdry disaster.

Love Number 2- Military Inspired Fashion

Yes. This my friends, is one of my favorites. Military-inspired clothing. Especially outerwear. And for women, it is lovely!The luxury bohemian fashion statement takes elements from the Cossack, there's another milutary look to choose from. It's a bit Sergeant Pepper; a bit rock; but it's also sleek and it's luxe.

We all need a little bit of luxury rock in our closets, don't we?

Love of the Autumn Season... Number 1

Many of you may think that I am a bitter, complaining misanthrope, which may be the case, however there are things that I adore. The season after summer and the fashion that comes along when the temperature goes down. It is hot! I have always been a fan of high boots, and I am definitely a fan of the over-the-knee or thigh-high boots. This can be a tough look to pull off. I think this look does flatter many body types though. A leather jacket, with high leather boots and some skinny jeans is sexy and goes right from Autumn to Winter. See photo here. Love this look! 5 stars in my book.

Yet, Again, Another HELL NO!

Hailing all the way from Brasil, we have the worst denim creation that could have ever been created. This cannot be the statement of Brasilian fashion, can it? The Whale Tail jean, along with the tramp stamp runs for 95 USD.

I am not sure if the tramp stamp kit comes with the wonderful jeans. It would be a shame if it did not, because these jeans are not at all trashy enough.

No to This Look

So here we go again with the MC Hammer/Aladdin pants, these are Chloe' harem pants. Even worse in metallic lame material than in jersey. Either way they are a disgrace. Did you ever think someone who was 6'1 and 112 pounds could look that wide, no? Oh and they are only a mere 892$, what a steal! Let's get 'em!
