I see where you're coming from with this comment, but I disagree. I think "flattering" refers to a garment that's been tailored to fit the wearer's shape. Even a "Hollywood thin" person could still end up in a garment that's unflattering, if it hasn't been tailored correctly. Of course, I guess that doesn't mean that…

Marchesa: Who says you have to be getting married to wear a wedding dress?

I hope none of my coworkers overheard me trying to stifle my giggles, because Robin motorboating anyone would be hard to explain :P

It totally is. I could see any of the 1940s stars rocking the hell out of that.

Yes to Michelle Williams, especially with the pixie cut. And a bright red lip colour.

I think her stylist hates her. She's always wearing something that has a whiff of disaster about it.

I know it's probably fabric, but my eye sees rubber and loves it >.>

Holy crap, I love this dress.

Cute shoes!

Love the fabric, but the style of bodice is flattening, and the inverted pleats make her hips look bigger than they are. If the dress was cut to mid-shin, it might offset the width the pleating creates, and maybe a black choker would help...

I'm reminded of the crocheted toilet-roll dollies my grandmother and her peers would keep on the back of the toilet...

Well, that's unflattering...

At first glance I didn't like this dress, but on second glance, I do. A lot. It suits her, and it looks soft in spite of the angles of the pattern.

I like the floral motif, but it's a bit bedsheety for me, at least from this angle.

His blacks aren't the same black. I know that's a petty gripe, but it's jarring to my eye.

On a more serious note, I get where you're coming from. We expect our friends to be supportive, and it's baffling when they can't set aside their own ego-stuff to be happy for us.

Aww :( I wish I could give her a big hug, then take her out for lunch with some of my friends. She doesn't deserve the crap she's getting. She's just a kid.

I've known this for a while. I adopted my cat in 2002 and he was a yowling bag of bones and matted fur. He had been in a less-than-optimal living situation. He was so jazzed about the idea of there actually consistently being food that he went from underweight to overweight in about two years. Part of it was my fault.…

I don't watch either show. "Quirky" as a main characteristic doesn't appeal to me at all; it smacks of trying too hard to be cool. I mostly just came here to mention that it's "flesh out", not "flush out". You flesh out the skeleton of an idea; you flush out the enemy from a foxhole. I usually don't point that stuff…

I'm with you. I couldn't stand Seinfeld, and I didn't get the appeal at all.
