actually, it might be a capelet.

Matching goofballs. That's funny. My mom made matching outfits for us once - I hated it. What is it with moms and the matching outfits anyway?

my older sister liked having us match for some reason, even though she is 5 years older. we had swimsuits, coats, shirts, etc. that matched. in retrospect, not a good plan for her during her awkward adolescent years. the matching outfit photos have been kinder to me (most of them were taken during the always cute 3-5 yo range).

Tell me about it. It took years for me to get over the ridicule from fourth grade.

I have never been too drawn to capelets (although I have been drawn to capes, especially Superman ones, which I frequently wear to the office), but it's hard to go wrong with anything cashmere. I just bought a hot pink cashmere hoodie because I really liked the way it felt on, even though it's like so Paris Hilton from two years ago. If you like it, get it.

But remember, we reserve the right to openly ridicule you. At all times.

Especially if the poncho/capelet is from the poncho department at Macy's.

I am currently on a cashmere bender. not necessarily good on the checkbook. but it is making me happy.

it is not. it was not hanging with other ponchos/capelets. it was in the cashmere sweater department (at Bloomingdales, if you must know). I think it will look fabulous over my go-out tops (many of which are sleeveless and therefore cold) this winter. with jeans or black pants and heels.

(yes, I'm gonna buy it.)

Ridicule away.

I hope you realize that you are purchasing the Rudolf of the poncho/capelet species.

I probably purr when I have cashmere next to my skin. It's a good thing that I don't/can't go bra-less, because the feeling of cashmere on my bare breasts is amazingly erotic to me. I'd never be able to actually leave the house if I could wear it that way.

I am taking an online traffic school class at the moment. And I am quite sad that the only thing I have to distract me from it is this discussion of ponchos and capelets.

That said, I'm sure you'll look absolutely fetching in your capelet, ncs.

eta: thank you, rt. The image of cashmere against bare breasts will get me through for quite a while.

She's hideous. Wouldn't touch her.

She's attractive, but for a movie star, she isn't and never has been that hot. Don't get me wrong, her body is phenomenal, but her face is well...leathery. There are women working at my office who are better looking than her.

Plus, she's an unbelievably bad actress. So bad it makes me angry. She single-handedly destroyed "A Few Good Men".

I thought she was a pretty convincing coke-head in St. Elmo's Fire, but she probably spent years practicing up for that part.

My fucking SBC Yahoo homepage just spoiled last night's Apprentice for me by putting as the main news item on the page a picture of the loser, along with the headline "[Loser's] Fatal Mistake". Should I cancel my DSL service over this?

No. You should shit on someone's desk. Weren't you paying attention yesterday?

That's like me getting a gig where I have to play a convincing masturbator.

Depends on whether this is a national box or a regional box. I don't expect to see Red Sox World Series Wheaties boxes at my local grocery store as previous World Series champions have been regional according to this list.

The national ones may be limited but, judging from a Google search, they've even done regional ones for league champs. It's all about sales and I suspect there will be at least 10X as many BoSox Wheaties boxes stored in New England closets and basements as there are Twins 1987 and 1991 World Series boxes stored in Minnesota basements (the Fugee Mom has at least one of each).
