Good morning & Happy Saturday, Wasteland Warriors. Yes, it is only early o’clock,, but that’s sleeping in for me these days (normal wake up call if 5am for exercise before work). I feel like a kid wobbling on a bicycle without training wheels for the first time; I’m really out of practice with my fashion critiques. I actually stopped doing Stylin’ Saturdays because I treated myself to a celebrity black out for a couple months…which turned into the better part of a year. I stopped looking at tabloids (for the fashion/beauty news), stopped visiting People and even GoFugYourself — which had been my after work de-stressor for years. You see, Wasteland Wanderers, living in So Cal, the news is inundated with Miley Cyrus/Lindsey Lohan/Justin Beiber/whoever’s daily movement. When you see a breaking news story about Beyoncé’s new weave followed by a report of 100 people killed in a roadside bombing or two children kidnapped & murdered the next city over, the triviality of celebrity life just hits you as a waste of time & resources.
However, that being said, the horrors & drudgery of daily life need to be counterbalanced by a wee bit of humor. So after several gentle nudges from friends (thanks Jenni4!!), I’m getting back on the horse. Please bear with me while I get my snark gland primed, I’m hoping to have my witty repartée up to full force by Awards Season in January. Click on thru for the return of Stylin’ Saturday!
