I love the Cakewrecks blog. Such dreadful cakes -- whatever are people thinking?

Creme de Menthe?

Is that supposed to be the last words of a soon-to-be-aborted fetus? Otherwise I don't get it. (and I agree, wtf?)

Maybe it's a Rosemary's Baby homage?

And it looks like a c-section, which doesn't make any sense if it's supposed to be about abortion.

PLF, care to explain?

I was in your city this weekend and was disturbed by the latest in sorority girl chic: cowboy boots with short skirts/shorts.

I thought this was just a Daisy Duke thing and that once Romo dumped her we would all see the shame in all things related to Jessica. Apparently not.

I was only there for the game, so I didn't venture out to my old haunts. Please tell me this is just a campus thing and does not extend into the rest of the city.

the only possible explanation is a going away party for a Ob-Gyn fired from a hospital for botching a c-section. nothing else fits.

This look was huge in LA in 1992.

As I've not seen this in person, I think we can safely say it's campus-specific. Sadly, it's a "fashion" that predates Jessica Simpson -- it's a way of saying "woo! Texas!" in a way the natives seem to find appealing.

Women in LA are still overly fond of the boots with short skirt or shorts look. Only now the number of types of boots has expanded. I find the entire thing to be moronic, but for some reason these women don't run their outfits by me for approval before heading out.

More or less SFW.

I still think this is the gold standard: www.njguido.com

Men are also fond of the boots and short skirt look. I have no idea why it's sexy, but it is. Probably some latent dominatrix fetish.

Shirts and boots? No. I'd think the woman was challenged.

What about the summer scarf then, what's the story with this trend?
