  1. one zip shopping for the “johns”

    December 28, 2009 by shishnit

    Dear Macy’s….this is just so bad.  No one should wear this giddyup…least of all as a dress..and certainly not if you are plus sized.  And I’m thinking that for $47.40 I really want an ENTIRE dress.  But hey call it what it is.  “Apple Bottoms Whore dress, with hood to cover ashamed face.  Wear backwards for maximum slutiness!”


  2. Preppy Plus Size Girls? Let’s try for “pretty”, “feminine”, “stylish”..mmmkay??

    Dear Old Navy,

    Are you f’n serious?  Who the hell writes your copy? ” Pop the collar for ultimate in preppy style”  Really Old Navy…..I swear I may have to eat crow when I see these “preppy poppy collar’s” crop up everywhere and god help me I hate them!!  I hated them the first go around…oh ya know back in 1982!!  But I notice something odd about you O.N., you don’t have these pop collar’s available for the regular girls…just the chubby ones.  Do chubby girls need to pop da collar to draw the eye away from something?  I think not!! 

    Please ask me what kind of styles I want.  I’ll clue you in.  But for now…I’m thinking preppy is so yesterday. Oh and horizontal stripes….REALLY? Can I please work in your plus line design department, just for a minute?

    Thank you!

    Kristy

    (disclaimer: I didn’t buy this top so I have no idea if my preppy poppin’ collar would bring all the boy’s to the yardage or not!)


  3. Vaseline Sheer Infusion Body Lotion, Botanical Blend

    October 28, 2009 by shishnit

     

    I really like this lotion. I personally cannot detect any scent. I asked Rick to smell it straight out of the bottle and he couldn’t smell anything either.  If it is scented, its scented so lightly that I cannot detect any scent.  This is fine by me because then it does not interfere with my chosen perfumes and scents.

    Chef’s talk about “mouth feel” and I want to refer to that because this lotion has a “hand feel” or smoothness to it that makes you think of slathering on something smooth and creamy into your skin.  The simply texture of it is lovely.  It does not leave a greasy residue or any residue for that matter.  Within ten minutes or so you cannot tell you put any lotion on.  I do not have skin issues, no extreme dryness etc.  I am your average lotion user who goes to lotion to relieve the occasional lackluster feel my skin gets from long day’s in the heat of Florida. 

    The only suggestion I would make to Vaeline is that they do not print such tiny text on the bottle with such a difficult to read color. I had to strain my otherwise normal eyesight to read what it said on the back.

    New technology?  Really….it’s hard to tell.  It’s just a nice unscented non-greasy lotion if you ask me.  All that other hype…I can’t tell. My skin feels the same using this as any other Vaseline product.  Perhaps you have to have some major skin issues to give this product the true test of its abilities.  It has made my skin soft and in the week since I’ve been using it I have noticed the small bumps on my elbows, etc. are gone.  Smooth and soft now.  Thanks for that Vaseline.  I really do like the fact that I can slather it on my feet and within five minutes I can walk across my tile floor and not fall on my behind in a slick trip. (ie: it really soaks in and leaves no grease behind) That’s a plus because now I’m using it more on the soles of my feet! :-)
