I’d like to thank my stylist- Frisky. She made this look possible.
Oh, how embarassing- she has it on backward- I’ll bet she feels foolish!
No, I lied. It’s this one. It looks like she violently melded with a surfing cowboy.
This is for all the Moms who ever wished they could just throw a trench coat over their childs outfit.
No, I didn’t need help getting dressed- why do you ask?
Wanda was never invited back to the Bird Sanctuary again after the incident.
I’m sorry, embellished hems are just silly looking, what was the designer thinking?!

It is obviously their salute to Native American designs simulating buckskin and headdresses and the moccasins/booties have been embellished with bear claws or bird talons. The talons came in handy for slashing the horizontal cuts in the garments. The surfing cowboy look certainly is a salute to NA weaving with the deconstructed jeans thrown over the whole ensemble…guess they didn’t quite finish those before the show…kinda like being back stage at the Project Runway…frantic designers hand stitching clothes onto their models at the last minute…whoopsie…oh well, walk down the catwalk anyway honey…no one will notice.

The only thing I like about this collection is the heavily feathered headdresses at the end. Mostly because that obscures the bird’s nest hair.

The surfer cowboy reminds me of many an expat here in Baja after they have run through their money, their boat has sunk, and their friends don’t want them sleeping on the spare hammock.

I do think that when you run over a pheasant you should just humbly throw it in the hedge and keep quiet. Shredding your clothes and wearing it on your head is carrying penance too far. Some would call it ostentation.
