bright shiny colors

Okay, the weirdest store of all time came to our mall recently. Just yesterday I decided to take a stroll through the mall, crossing my fingers for big discounts at Banana Republic... and I stumbled upon the newest addition: American Apparel. Before I go any further, let me just say that I do appreciate their blank, brightly colored, soft, sweatshop-free, cotton tee's. And those stretchy cotton scarves? Beautiful. They have some cute clothes.

But this store is weird folks. I have never seen so many stretchy glitter spandex in my life. And shiny leotards & bodysuits... and stirrup pants. Now, I don't like to be a critic. (I know I have poor taste in movies, and you probably shouldn't listen to a restaurant recommendation from me because I do not eat like a normal human.) So, naturally, I am no fashionista and far be it for me to judge the glitter clothes- I was just overwhelmed in this store. The thing that made this store totally bizarre to me was the gentleman who greeted me; who was wearing one of everything in the store. Yes layer upon layer of cotton- most of which was shiny and stretchy.

And to top it all off, the music in the store sounded just like the music that they play in a horror film just before the girl gets unexpectedly knifed in the back. I am not kidding, creeptastic horror film music.
