    1. And this is why they need to hire a women's designer. Quick. Before Frank brings back the ruffle.

  3. OMG - that would be funny except it is so scary...

    When I stopped into the JC store in Florida (mind you am used to Rock Centre) I was so disheartened by the choice. At least online I can still find some basics. My lord there was ugly clothes...

    1. Yeah, interesting how piecemeal the restocking and rollouts are. I wonder what life is like at a company that's not worth $5MMM!

  4. If I remember correctly you bought the COTW sweater, didn't you? Now you can wear again it as right on trend for FW14.

    1. No, now I have to out it away for a rest until the madness is over, then it can come travelling.

  5. I wanted that twinset so so much 3 years ago. Now I realize I would have looked like the flag of a banana republic.

    1. It was really cute with a wine-colored skirt, but I avoided white jeans. Now I guess I have to avoid the whole package at least until those pocketbooks are marked down and clearanced out.

  6. Yes, have heard there are more rumors of a JC company sale on CNBC.

    Are we all immune to ruffles now? We can swear an oath. I'm enjoying not being interested in JC at all at the moment.

    1. Count me in for the oath-taking!

      Don't you wonder who starts these rumors? Like maybe someone in Dear Leader's own Ministry of Random Ideas, to test the waters...

As Alice Roosevelt Longworth said, if you've got anything bad to say, sit next to me! No, really, please remember to be kind, and don't say anything fred's mother would not approve of (Diner's mom didn't approve of anything. Including fred.)
