For no particular reason, I invite you to listen to Flanders and Swann singing The Sloth. I am very fond of this song.

At a tangent that attests to my micro-second attention span, I look forward to seeing Adam Lambert attired in some of the items from the Dolce & Gabbana Fall Menswear collection. These are some awesomely absurd garments, although personally, I think all the menz should be wearing glittery balaclavas—don't wait until the autumn, what could be better at keeping the ears snug when the Polar wossname returns?

I think Adam Lambert is perhaps the only person who could genuinely pull off those trousers... wait, that doesn't sound the way I meant it. ;) I love the broad, colourful stripes, but most people I think would risk having the trousers wear them, rather than the other way around. They are indeed awesomely absurd.

Do you think the glittery balaclavas can be paired with the interestingly chunky tiaras crowns? I would definitely endorse that idea.

*cackles wildly* I think you're right, and yet, some of those trousers, and even the suits, are oddly gorgeous.

I think the glittery balaclavas should absolutely be paired with the crowns.

There are actually a couple of tops in that collection that I covet for myself, mostly because Shiny! But some of the coats look as though they were built for giant hamsters to wear, which cannot be good.

::peruses collection:: You're right, they do. Oh.... dear. ::giggles helplessly::

The striped trousers are gorgeous -- I particularly love the pair in shades of russet and burgendy. And I'd genuinely love to see someone really wear the suit in the last large picture -- it would be amazing. (The one before it, the burnt brown with the gold stripe? That as a coat? Covet.)

The suit in the middle of the PJs-and-underwear set confuses me. I can't tell if it's a weirdly trimmed suit, or bizarrely formal PJs. 0.o?

I do love the colours of most of this—despite the prevalence of grey, they look rich and luscious, and yes, the brown and gold is a lovely combination, and I'm with you on that suit, too. Also, I want to see Adam wearing some of those fabulous gloves, even though his poor little thumbs will get cold.

I'm a bit baffled as to why they're showing pyjamas, though. I mean... they're just pyjamas.

Hi Pen! Just a quick question, because my mom is looking for something similar to the puzzle piece looking mat you were pinning your scarf on - what are those called and where did you get them? (That is, would they be available online?) Thanks for any help :))

[pensnest]

www.easimat.com is the place to get them. :-)
