I was thinking that Amal looks similar to Jackie and wondering whether that was Clooney’s ‘model.’ It is interesting you showed Jackie.

When a culture kills its traditions and gods, it looks to authorities like Hollywood to give them meaning in life.

As always, it leads to corruption, as Hollywood directors and producers are full of child rapists and other normal rapists.

The strapless wedding gown fad is popular with the stores because they are the easiest to alter, since most are constructed by attaching a bustier to a skirt.

I much prefer a gown with shoulders.

Jackie’s right about her wedding dress.

Our mother’s (1950) was stunning: heart-shaped bodice, and lace sleeves (to the wrists) with a ruffle of lace at each; peplum lace at the waist; and over a hoop skirt, a full satin skirt and full cathedral train, with lace panels over the skirt in the front and rear.

I don’t really like his politics at all. But, I can easily see him stepping into politics and winning the Democratic nomination and then the Presidency. Look at the optics and timing here. Look at the dress. Conservative Kennedy Democrat appearing style and grace. Really, think about it.

After going through all these posts especially on the topic of Clooney, I am happy to report that I have never seen a single movie or TV show he has acted in!
We came close last year to the one about being stranded in space but something intervened, probably a pleasant walk on a balmy night !

That’s okay, don’t worry. It takes more than that to insult me 🙂 .

All that you say is without a doubt true about this little space. In the larger space of checkout lane magazines, it is a huge factor. I did not mean to insult you, I merely wished to comment on celebrity worship in general. Your interest in fashion in general, or the ‘cutting edge’ of celebrity fashion is your thing and I have no issue with you our gracious and magnanimous hostess to do your thing. Please note there is no tongue in my cheek.

parker: Well, I can assure you that they don't affect or influence my opinions in any way. I doubt they affect the opinions of any regular reader of this blog, either. Nor am I adding to their influence. I'm not writing for People, after all. I'm just writing this blog.
