I normally would not do this. I am a news writer, an editor no less. I write about serious problems, you know, UJ cases, the union elections, guns on campus, the city of Waltham, Mamoon Darwish. But I had a revelation from the other night. This is serious. I never thought this happen. My whole vision of world-turned upside down. I wear a pair of skinny jeans. And it expects good. Not just good, which expects warm. I know this sounds presumptuous, but you will not see me in jeans.
I was sitting in my housemate bed, and brings us closer to evoke the good old days. I would be lying if he said a beautiful rendition of "Close Games (With My Heart)" was not sung. It was and is unbelievable. I thought about going to bed because it was the smart thing to do, but I decided to rifle through her closet.
Standing there, before a mass of tissue, I had a thought. "Hey Danielle," I said, "it would be okay if I tried H & M in your jeans?"
"Of course," he replied.
So I took the jeans from the rack and decided to take a risk. Before proceeding further, a brief bit of history would be useful.
I am a fan of the TLC show what not to Wear. I take seriously what they say about closure and clothing and skirt length. I realize the creation of an hourglass figure and elongating the leg. For the first season of the show, the tapered leg was defamed Pant. I even say it was demonized. Exaggerated the hip. Has the body seems less proportions, and so more and Stacy and Clinton were right. A wide leg pants balances out the hip and lengthens the leg.
So when it became trendy skinny pants, I thought, "WTF? Unless you have the body of Audrey Hepburn, there is no way to the pants can work."
During the Olympics last month, and then again at the U.S. Open, as it manifests itself as a racket in his head that the world of sport has become the latest domain in which the ultimate goal is not win, but to have a clothing line. The gymnast Nastia Liukin has just announced its own collection of jeans, and Maria Sharapova is playing the drums at Fashion Week for its new deal with Cole Haan. Even Michael Phelps mom just signed to support the boy.
Now that the cultural nexus, which has already tied designer / musician / artist / actor / celebrity in a profession, has grown to include athletes, the potential of sport, fashion have not gone unnoticed by old-school designers. After seasons of punishment from the media for promoting a stick-figure unhealthy physical, which have finally wised up to the Olympic ideal. Nowhere was this more evident than in the Duckie Brown show on Friday, when one of the designers, Steven Cox, said the idea "is to make a high-end collection of Nike, as if they had asked us to."
