Bargain Chic: Andrew Gn

January 19, 2009

I can't believe it is finally here -- Inauguration Day! I am so excited and wish I could be in D.C. to be a part of all the festivities and the excitement of this historic moment in American history. Alas, I am thousand of miles away from the balls, the parties, the concerts and the cold. (Well, I could do without the cold, as I am happy in my 70 degree weather.)

But just because I am not physically there, doesn't mean I can't dream of what it would be like to be in the thick of all those taffeta gowns celebrating the night away. So, if I were there -- giving air kisses to Michelle and fist-bumps to Barack -- this is how I dream I would ring in our country's new beginning...

And, of course, for those many imagined cocktail parties I would be attending, here is a cute, sophisticated, LBD.

Short people are everywhere in Phoenix. But I don't mean the vertically challenged-kind. I mean, people that love -- no, covet -- shorts. It's a must if you live in a city where 100+ temperatures are the norm for at least four months out of the year. Even if you don't live in the sweltering heat of the desert, shorts epitomize carefree summers and laid back lounging. What's even better is that shorts are making a fashion statement with looks ranging from casual cool, wearable workwear and sexy satin. Take your pick, and be proud to be a short person!
