I admit I don't know much about fashion, but I sure
know tacky when I see it. And it was in full force
this week for the Restless Style launch party.
Did they ask Gloria to decorate for the party? Jack
and Sharon made such a stink about the way she
redecorated the living room with lava lamps and bean
bag chairs then turned around and did the same thing
for their big party. There were cheap blue fiber
optic lamps on the tables and strobe lights
everywhere, like they bought out Spencer's Gifts or
something.
Chloe is supposed to be such a fashion expert and
the next thing you know she's wearing this little
red hat and dress combo that makes her look like one
of Santa's elves. And she's got Lily decked out in
feathers that make her look like a cross between a
Vegas stripper and Big Bird from Sesame Street.
I don't have much hope for this magazine if its
founder, Nick Newman, thinks his sister Victoria is
a "fashionista." The woman wears the most hideous,
frumpy dresses in town and can never keep her hair
out of her eyes. And did you see what Victoria wore
to the party? It looked like someone wrapped toilet
paper around her and left the end piece hanging down
her back and her hair was pulled back in a ponytail
like she was on her way to a barn dance.
And what the hell kind of a name is Restless Style
anyway? When you have restless leg syndrome it means
you can't keep your legs still. If you have Restless
Style it makes it sound like you can never decide
what dress to wear. Got Restless Style? Ask your
doctor if Mirapex is right for you.
You do realize that this new "Restless Style" set is
just the old loft where JT used to live, right? I
mean, they barely made any attempt to make it look
any different. The window everyone keeps popping in
and out of is the same window Victoria was staring
out of when JT told her Nicholas was killed in a
plane crash. And the big red neon sign outside is
the same one we used to see from the loft's window.
If it's not the loft, it's right next door.
Everyone's been spending the last week begging
Victor to go to this party and when he finally shows
up everyone is aghast and outraged by his presence.
I know they sent him an invitation because we saw
him throwing it into the trash.
But I love how all the reporters just assume Victor
is fronting the whole project just because he shows
up at the launch party. Even the media thinks Nick
and Jack are big losers who couldn't launch a toy
boat in the bath tub let alone a new business.
I'm starting to think Sabrina's French accent is
about as phony as Alistair's Scottish one. When she
was waving goodbye to Victoria she called out "Avec
mama." That's French for "With Mama." Only, Reed was
not with Mama, Mama was going away. Go back to Paris
and brush up, Sabrina.
Wouldn't even the room service people recognize
"John?" Or the people downstairs at the club, even
if he's wearing sunglasses? You'd think Jack and
Sharon would be smart enough to stash this guy at a
cheap motel somewhere instead of the one place
everyone in town spends half their time, including
Gina who runs the place. They might as well have
"hidden" him at Crimson Lights.
