[...] AB: Dolce & Gabbana Play Opposite Day [...]
They’d have to have a whip in their hands to make me wear those f—ing clothes!
Wild clothes, edgy people and kinky situation.. woo-woo? Forget it.. It seems they are too desperate for attention on the staged posing part and no great effort was put into the design and style of their fuggy old clothes..
There’s a restaurant near here, in St. Augustine, where you can’t even get a hamburger without guava and mango. Their ‘blackened’ scallops?…blackened in cinnamon!
They are trying so hard to be cutting edge that it wreaks of desperation. They only stay in business because most of the folks who eat there leave town the next day and don’t return.
It’s one of those places where it’s so bad, you have to go back just to show your friends how bad it really is.
Funny I should have though of that particular restaurant when I saw this ad.
…they wanted to create only the theatrical aesthetic of the Napoleonic period.
Oh, well I can see how…huh? Is that supposed to be Jane Austen in the little leather number?
No, no — I know what it is. They’re re-enacting the scene in Persuasion where Louisa Musgrove playfully jumps off the steps at Lyme, and Capt. Wentworth doesn’t quite catch her. That’s Wentworth bending over her, and Capt. Benwick and Charles Musgrove in the background, along with various hangers-on. I believe Chapter 12 specifically states Louisa was wearing slut sandals, which is what caused the accident.
Now, don’t you all feel foolish.
But were they cute slut sandals?
But were they cute slut sandals?
Thinking to be clever (and more, to be seen being clever), I wrote half a chapter of Persuasion here to answer the question. But that took up a lot of room, and you don’t have a preview function, and I had to impugn poor Louisa’s character, so screw it. You’ll have to settle for knowing that I was really terribly clever.
The answer is yes, by the way.
