Do I have to write an editorial on how many wrong things are in this Metallic Lame’ Tube Dress? I don’t think that’s necessary. I think you and I understand exactly why this is such a LAME dress. On every level. To quote Nina Garcia from one of the episodes of Project Runway this season :

I wholeheartedly agree. Do You? If you like it, bless your heart, it’s $19.80

Sarah Jessica Parker assigning contestant to create something for her clothing line BITTEN under Steve and Barry’s was the first episode I caught of this season’s Project Runway. I admit, I have been neglectful on catching up with Heidi and Tim, heh. It was quite a challenge for the designers ‘coz they had to spend $15 on materials to create 2-piece outfit that costs only $40. I’ve been to 2 Steve and Barry’s store. Once in Upstate New York during our vacation this year and one time here in NC. The nearest Steve and Barry’s store is like 35 …read more
