Someone left a GQ MAGAZINE in my mailbox yesterday, and being the fashionista that I am I had to read it. Did you know that if you spend $1,700 on a PRADA jumpsuit that you will not look like a male porn star or a Guido? I looked very carefully at the article and aside from the missing Adidas stripes and logo, it looked like the satin shiny stretchy same old fabric that you can get at any mall for $50 unless it is on sale then it's $29. Who is this guy Prada and why are people willing to pay $1000 for a small nylon handbag that is made from the same material as the free totes you get at a convention? Is that little gold triangle REAL GOLD? It's no wonder the New York cops put Canal Street out of business. Though it may not be as easy to create a Hermes Birkin Bag knockoff, Louis Vuiton vinyl and Prada nylon were a cinch. A $1000 bag for $20? They are, or were, everywhere. We can't stop illegal aliens from crossing the Mexican border, but we've got a real good system for stopping the importation of fake-Prada. Way to go, Janet Napolitano.
