oh woe is me, every day I lament that I am too old to wear the marykateandashley line

Also from the news -- "Target Corp. posted a larger first-quarter profit gain than rival Wal-Mart Stores Inc., which missed analysts' estimates as unfashionable apparel and high gasoline prices hurt sales."

I love when stock analysts are forced to discuss the relative dismerits of the acid-wash and Lycra wasteland that is Wal-Mart fashion.

I once saw a fashion spread (I think in Sassy, bless its soul) wherein they took a supermodel to KMart and made her find an outfit she would actually wear. The model said she'd only ever been in a KMart once, to buy an umbrella. She ended up picking out a tiny t-shirt from the boys department and stretching the hell out of it.
