But isn't the coupe de grass the model? I mean, I know there are a lot of haggard anorexic junkies in the modeling world, but usually they were at least once attractive, say, when they were 16. That guy probably spent his teen years having his dungeons and dragons buddies make fun of him for being such a loser.

i'm not:( everyone here was saying "work on abs" "work on core!" now I find out I need to show my thighs and I've not been working them:mad: at all.

Is boy cellulite an okay look? and follow up, is there a way to minimize showing the backs of one's legs on the runway?

I'm getting pix later today ($500) then I'll be registered as a MODEL on a computer database ($50/month) that AGENCIES can access. they can see my head shots along with an evaluation of my runway work. I will probably get work.

so me? I go to high fashion shows for the CASH motherfucker. Now?

I'll be watching for you on the next season of America's Next Top Model.

It was indeed plf. He had this specially designed, just for him, with the front of his shorts attached only by velcro and the identity shielding star-wars inspired mask.

He has his reasons.

The shrunken leather jacket is interesting. I could actually see that proportion working, but I think it would look better with a pant baggier than his typical. Were the skort full-length, it would be wider than his normal trousers, for example.

For most men, though, the shoulder is an important feature, so I wonder how comfortable they are minimizing it.

The rest is more early March when the temp drifts above 15 and they believe it's spring.

I like ironweed's post, not the outfit (though the short skirt, or possibly skort, is not without its charms). Hey, hey, hey.

Just like the bare legs, right?

I feel compelled to add here that anyone with bitchin' legs like that should bare them at all times.

Well, sure, because despite 4 nominations he didn't win anything, and even conceded defeat to Beyonce on video of the year.

Exactly. He had already lost the battle for Sunday night. But he was smart enough to stay focused on the future. On Monday morning, he could have just been some guy who did not win. Instead, he's now got the president calling him a jackass. His star is rising.

I think it is a pair of shorts with a little Home Depot attendant apron-type thingie on the front. To hold your pencils and box cutters and the like.

Righteous! It's like my Utilikilt, only more outwardly sexier. Not sure I could wear the Thom Browne one without underware (as I do with the Utilikilt, boc) without being in a constant state of "hanging out", iykwimaiastyd. ww nn.

See if the yellow card button is available under a post. (You may have to log out and log back in for this.) There's now a "like" yellow card that regular posters can use.

I'll be happy to add other yellow cards.

OTOH, pipe cutters I'd avoid.

Not for me there isn't. *sniff*.

Maybe I'm an irregular poster. Though I try to eat sufficient fiber.
