I think it might be time for me to go to fashion school. I’ve always been fashion stumped. Sure, I’ve done my best to look cool. When New Wave hit the scene back in 1983 I busted out with a pink blazer and hot pink tie. I feathered my super thin hair. (And that ain’t easy!). I rocked a blue pair of Top Siders. I slithered into high-waisted white pants. I adopted an alluring hair in the eye I’m too cool for you so snap that picture quick ’cause I’ve got places to go and people to see ya dork stance.

Im the *sigh* one on the left.

I'm the *sigh* one on the left. Body language says a lot here.

I didn’t say I did it well. Part of the problem may have been that I did it all at the same time. It’s not my fault. Wendy or Nancy should have hit me over the head with a fashion stick. Little did I know that I looked more like a gay Joey Ramone than Debbie Harry. No offense to the gay community who by and large have a lock on lookin’ good.

Better yet, I’ll do y’all a favor and stay away from fashion school which, I suspect, is better suited to people who get heart palpitations at the sight of a Jimmy Choo. The Carrie Bradshaws of the world. If you can’t tear yourself away from The Rachel Zoe project (which reminds me a whole lot of The Devil Wears Prada, not that I watch The Rachel Zoe Project or any of that other trash they show on Bravo like Real Housewives of Orange County not that I watch that either), fashion school just might be the catalyst to a life of letting the beauty of what you love  be what you do. Check out fashion school to learn more about the fashion industry and about getting the education you need to score yourself a fashion related job. Joey Ramone will thank you for it.
