Just what were we members OF?



"I don't care to belong to a club that accepts people like me as members. "
~ Groucho Marx

Dearest lovelies,

I saw one of these in a window display of Macy's the other day and I tell you I about fell over on Michigan Ave.  So I HAD to go into the store.  Readers, I will NOT divulge to you what I paid for it "back in they day," but Macy's was asking $59.50.  I about died.  What's worse is I saw it again at Urban Outfitters for $88.00.  


Now, I shall reveal to you what it is I've been just in upheaval about.    It is a Member's Only Jacket.

I am tired of reminiscing, but I am also tired of seeing repeats of fashions that just didn't work the first time around.  Next thing you know we'll be seeing plexiglass shoes with a place to keep your goldfish in the heel.   Which by the way is another bad idea.  I think I'll just go ahead and alert PETA on that one. 
This jacket was stylish at the time, but even then it was a bit questionable.  I mean really, is there a point to the having your neck cinched shut?  You are not climbing Everest and I don't expect this to be any form of a technical jacket.  If it were, it wouldn't leak.  

With that dear reader, I leave you with this as a "fashion don't you dare!"  I could think of better things to become a member of.  

Until later my lovelies, stay fashionable!

Sister Mary
