Sorry Horatio: About the GLAM, I just couldn’t let it go

Even though I’m sure I’m affected by it in some way (don’t ask me how), the fashion pages in papers and magazines strike me very funny.

Glam it up, they say.

Sorry, can’t do it.

Bling it on, they say.

Say what, I say.

Luxe up your life.

Are you kidding me?

In yesterday’s Free Press, the following photo (by M. Lamont) appeared amongst a collection of clothing styles meant to deliver an ‘animal attraction’ theme.


If a salesclerk tried to sell gloves to me in that fashion I’d say, get away from me with those gloves.

But, can you point me towards socks and underwear?

I just couldn’t let it go, Horatio.
