It’s like Betsey designs based on my dreams.
My neighbor, a fashion designer, told me today that Betsey Johnson is where high school girls shop for their proms. That is the store's primary clientele. Interesting.
Welcome to the terrible majesty of the bray and the cray!
I know she's sort of obligated to plug Betsey Johnson in return for the loan of those fugly sequin birthday dresses, but that does not make these shoes cute. I wouldn't even have put these on my Barbie's feet in 1988, and that's who JA reminds me the most of, style-wise. (Rambo can be Skipper.)
ReplyDeleteWTF is wrong with this woman?! She is 38 years old for fuck's sake. And those shoes are hideous.
ReplyDeleteJacy, your neighbor is correct about who shops at Betsey Johnson and why.
It is a brand that skews muuuuuch younger than Julia Allison.
Ps. I am trying to use the name Julia Allison at least once per day to drive this site up her google rankings. Heheh.
I wore a Betsey Johnson prom dress. It was cool when I was 18, 12 fucking years ago.
ReplyDeleteHorton Foote died today. The screenwriter/playwright of Tender Mercies, To Kill a Mockingbird, etc. Makes me vomit to think that I care about such stupid people as these when there is real talent out there.
ReplyDeleteAuntie Em - I love you!!
Julia, Mary, Meghan - you all suck away life from your followers. LIFE SUCKERS!!
Hey Toolia - thanks for the gift suggestion. My 6 year old nieces birthday is coming up and she would adore those shoes!
ReplyDeleteLooks like some of her New Year's resolutions are coming true. This is some serious "A game content" right here. Fucking old lady shoes with plastic hearts strewn on them. Cutting edge journalism.
ReplyDeleteCheck her twitter:
ReplyDelete"So Happy."
SO HAPPY.
Do people point and laugh when she walks around town in her whack-ass getups? How could you not?
ReplyDeleteMy dress (more like a two-piece suit) was from Betsey.
ReplyDelete...13 years ago.
Julia Allison Baugher WANTS people to point and laugh, or just to look at her period. She doesn't care what kind of attention she gets, as long as it's attention. HELLOOOO fucked up daddy issues.
ReplyDeleteUm yeah, I went to Betsey Johnson to get my high school prom dress. I've purchased a handbag there since, but the dresses are for MUCH younger girls. JA is a nutcase.
ReplyDeleteOh, whatever, don't rag on Betsey Johnson just because JA wears her stuff. A lot of it is really cute and just as appropriate for people in their late 20s as for high-schoolers. Not everything has tulle underneath or ridiculous bows everywhere.
