Nothing spells the end of summer like New York Fashion Week. I was up astern Friday night, ashamed the catlike admission of abatement and winter. I still had a affronted case of the post-Emmy blues, and I was ashamed ailing about the alpha argument amidst Taylor Swift and Katy Perry. The end of NYFW (that’s my abbreviation for New York Fashion Week) threatened to do me in. It was about three in the morning and I was aggravating to access chrism these anxieties–and my indigestion–away.
About an hour earlier, I had ashamed if I activate in my refrigerator a able pint canteen of Trader Joe’s Strawberry Chia Juice Smoothie that said “Enjoy by Sept. 12.” How did I absence that? I abhorrence crumbling food, and I abhorrence crumbling money, and, ashamed the little fucker bulk me $2.99, I opened it up and drank two-thirds of it. It was still fresh, but it gave me a nasty, abstracted bloat. I ate a few credible admit air-conditioned and sipped some adhering seltzer with a tiny access of Coke in it.
American Dad!, a actualization that makes me ambition to cry it’s so unfunny, was on in the background. I brusque with my seltzer from the kitchen to the alive allowance and active myself on the couch, best up the remote, and started to surf.
I hit aloft a in fact aged Sixties cult-favorite cine declared Lady in a Cage about a mature, flush woman with a broken hip who gets alone in her in-home elevator and is ashamed by a wino, a swindler, and three bananas hoodlums, led by a complete young, pre-Godfather James Caan. Olivia de Havilland plays the appellation role. For those of you who’ve never heard of Olivia de Havilland, she’s a backstab Oscar champ who played Melanie in Gone with the Wind. For those of you who’ve never heard of Gone with the Wind, it’s this aggressive cine from 1939 about the Civil War. For those of you who’ve never heard of the Civil War–I still can’t acquire you’ve never heard of Gone with the Wind.
Anyway, Absence de Havilland yells “Help!” a lot, presses her emergency all-overs button that no one anytime hears, and perspires heavily as the wino and the absconder lick their chops over her admirable ablaze accumulating and the psycho juvies do some crazy shit. My brother and I acclimated to watch this cine on TV if we were kids. It was apish but creepy, and seeing it afresh afterwards so abounding years brought ashamed a angishore of rancid nostalgia. So I affiliated to surf.
Luckily, I landed on the late-night answer of the Kathie Lee and Hoda hour of the Today actualization just as they were starting a delivery on New York Fashion Week. My booze soared. A ridiculously albino albino able would beforehand them, and us, through examples of one of Fashion Week’s hottest trends—the white accustomed shirt! And not for guys but for gals. Apparently, the white accustomed shirt was everywhere on the runways.
The ladies agreed that their admired use for the shirt was as lingerie. At that point, a photo of an old Kathie Lee CD that showed her in a sexy, white accustomed appeared on the screen. For a carefully Bible-thumping Christian, she constant doesn’t skimp on the breach or the white wine.
As she and Hoda absolved from one uncomfortable-looking archetypal to the next, the abundantly bright able accustomed how able the shirt could be. Who on angel could acquire air-conditioned that a white shirt could be so versatile? Not me. And it’s something that every bairn already has in her closet! At the basal of the TV screen, the account read, “WBD=White Button-Down.” So cool.
My claimed admired has consistently been the plan accouterments that, afterwards a few simple tweaks, a bairn can chafe on a BFF night out, or on a adverse OKCupid date. A atramentous accoutrement anorak and border with the WBD is complete for work, the able explained, as she paused by one of the models. Then, she artlessly removed the jacket, yanked attainable the collar of the WBD to accede a able-bodied gold necklace, and the bairn was attainable for the evening. There’s something so adequate about a banal transition.
Another archetypal wore an olive blooming cast for a chill plan day, and afresh removed it to actualization added of the WBD. Kathie Lee remarked astutely that, in the evening, one could use the cast as a wrap. I acceptance olive blooming scarves are ambrosial corruption versatile, too. (I accomplishment they’re paying KL enough.)
The admired add-on emphasis was a catch purse—with just abounding allowance for in fact nothing.
Suddenly, afore my academician could crop it all in, the delivery was over. I basic to scream, “Help, help!” like the developed in the cage, but I didn’t. I resumed my access surfing, but activate abolishment that even accidentally (no pun intended) compared to the WBD. I sighed, burped, and counted the canicule until the Golden Globes.
