Something to look out for, I’ve named this fall (based on what I’ve seen so far) as “Random Grandma.”
Disconnected and boring colors of shawls, sweaters (all big granny knot-knits)
Jumbled messes of large silver and gold jewelry
Baggy Unfit cuts
This fall looks like baby’s playin’ dress-up in grandma’s wardrobe.
I find it fucking hideous.
Designers: FOR SHAME.
I want my Tweed Librarian of ’04 and ’05 back. Gimme the fitted skirt and boots! ARRGH!
So remember, when you see it, remember: “RANDOM GRANDMA!”
See, I’m thinkin’ that you wouldn’t look so good in fitted skirts. Boots, yes. Fitted skirts, not so much.
Ha ha! Not for me, silly! Fer the wimmin (and looka-lika-wimmin) folks.
HEY I am still missing the days of men in skin tight 501 jeans. MAN that is damn sexy.
Hummmmm I wonder what they are doing for fashion in Germany or England today.
or they may be wishing……. ^_^
Yeah, thems too.
^_^ Only kidding ^_^

It’s obviously a damn good thing I stocked up on tweed during the end of season sales last year.
Yeah, ’cause I think it will be thin on the ground out there this season. And that’s a shame.
Oh christ yes. And why are the colors so goddamn hideous? All muddy turquoise and poopy mustards and f’d up oranges and ugly greens. It is SO HARD to make green ugly! Augh!!!
If I succeed in losing a few more pounds, I am going to wear the following outfit every day this fall: my favorite awesome gray tweed trousers that make my butt look good, black turtleneck, and black boots. Fuck the random grandma! (Note: not advocating sexual violence against random grandmas)
I’m so bummed that the knitting publications seem to be following this trend as well. *sigh* I want my carefully tailored cardigans, not huge flappy sweater-dresses.
You know you want it, Grandma.
I’m hoping it’s a fluke.
Bring back tight jeans!
