| | The age of No Nylons - Spandex was a better style! | | I just have to say I hate it! The "no nylons" look for women these days. I mean, if your legs are not exactly perfect, in shape, size and color, they are just not going to look very nice, yet you have them all out there for all to see. I am not one to be judging on appearance or saying you look ugly and things like that, I'm no Heather Locklear! I'm not trying to offend anyone, but why is this style so well loved? Its' been around for so long, but still -- it just looks like she stopped getting dressed! And then with open toed shoes and toes sticking out - I just think it is hidious. And since you know if no nylons on, then there is nothing else on under the dress, but maybe a dainty pair of panties so that is rather disgusting. ANd they wear this in the business world to! I mean how unprofessional to be sitting at a meeting with bare legs! Just so unprofessional and gross (can't think of a better word to use!) Even unkept personal hygene. I am sorry but this is just a really annoyance to me. Nylons are not that big a deal. They make your legs look nice, and keeps everything all together and looking nice, no veins showing or other blemishes and just puts a nice appearance to one's... | |
| | What was your favorite piece of clothing as a youngin? spandex pants, skorts.... | | When I was in grade school (1990s0, I used to wear these bright neon, iridescent pink spandex pants! With a big old sweatshirt over that and big old socks "scrunched" down by my L.A. Gear sneakers. And I used to wear my hair in a half ponytail, which my mother always used to call a "princess ponytail."*laughing* how cute.
Another favorite: I had this favorite pair of shorts that had a skirt over them. But they were the old style, where the shorts were longer than the skirt. Now, I look back and they are hideous! hahahaf a better word to use!) Even unkept personal hygene. I am sorry but this is just a really annoyance to me. Nylons are not that big a deal. They make your legs look nice, and keeps everything all together and looking nice, no veins showing or other blemishes and just puts a nice appearance to one's legs. Throw in the colors to accessorize the outfit and you got a winner. Plus, if no nylons, then you know she is bare foot in the shoe. Gross! Sweaty, stinky feet in the board room? ANd open toed - again, bare feet, toes sticking out..this isn't the beach! Okay, what do you think? This just... | |
| | For Lindsay Lohan, Healing Begins With Spandex | | We always knew Olivia Newton-John was like chicken soup for the soul. As Lindsay Lohan works hard to fight her inner demons, we applaud her channeling of this Australian icon.
Kudo to you, Linds. If you feel the need to get animal-animal, we suggest you try to avoid any and all exposure to overweight men with bad perms before afternoon therapy. | |
| | Dollar Store Smackdown! What is it With Big Gals And Spandex, Anyway? | | This is a recounting of an incident that I witnessed while shopping at a dollar store about a year ago... it's taken me 'til now to stop laughing my "A" off, so I can type...I love the dollar stores around here... They are places where a guy who loves to cook-could find some really great bargains on those crowded shelves: Peruvian Vacu-sealed sealed coffee sells for $8.00 a pound elsewhere, here it's only $1.00! Frozen Keta Salmon fillets, 4-5 ounces, $3.99 elsewhere, here it's a buck... ditto for gourmet olives, tea, cookies (I love the fudge-stuffed ones) and 102 ounce soda (Ginger Ale)... Great shopping for good stuff is a win-win for me!:)Now, this particular store happens to be in a somewhat dicey neighborhood... the owner has done his best to hire people from the community, and keep his store in great condition, so that it's a good example set against the "eyesores" that some people have allowed their properties to become...Big Spandex Babe, Number One (Henceforth designated as BSB#1) was working at the "Bag Check" counter, customers must give their bags to her before entering the store to shop, this is to... | |

Why the hel only spandex, why not a virsace jacket + levis jean + addidas shoes." that some people have allowed their properties to become...Big Spandex Babe, Number One (Henceforth designated as BSB#1) was working at the "Bag Check" counter, customers must give their bags to her before entering the store to shop, this is to discourage shoplifting (You know things are tough when some people actually consider stealing from a dollar store!) and most of the customers appreciate and co-operate with this procedure...Big Spandex Babe, Number Two (BSB#2) was a customer who was shopping merrily (Drunk) for all kinds of snacks, her shopping cart was so packed with candy, cookies and chips of every kind, that it resembled a kid's party on wheels!After I had paid for... | |
| | BBW's in Spandex | | Now I know it is to each his/her own when it comes to tastes in fashion. But when I see a woman or man in something so tight that every roll and dimple shows it makes me shake my head. There are so many flattering fashions out there for plus sized people to wear. skin tight just doesn't cut it. Choose clothing that is flattering. Take a friend with you when you shop. Do not solely rely on the opinion of the sales person. They are likely looking to increase sales and will tell you anything to have you buy something.Let me tell you as story of a good friend who bought new clothes for herself. She asked if she could model them for me. She came in with the first outfit, it was spandex. The top was okay, but the skirt looked like it was a web that she walked through. Not that it was a web, but it clung to her hips and thighs. It did not flatter her pear shape what-so-ever. The next two outfits were about the same. The next day we went back to the clothing store together. She got had her card credited for what she bought. The woman said that she thought that my friend looked great in the outfits. This woman was a size... | |
| | Is it okay for a man to wear spandex shorts to work? | | I have asked the question regarding women without a bra, but what if a man wore spandex shorts to work?e next two outfits were about the same. The next day we went back to the clothing store together. She got had her card credited for what she bought. The woman said that she thought that my friend looked great in the outfits. This woman was a size 2 if that. I helped my friend pick out some outfits that I knew would flatter her figure. She was delighted and thanked me for her help. I asked the skinny sales girl if they were hiring because I would love to work with people and really show them how to dress. She stuck her little nose in the air and walked away. | |
