My first impression was... blurry. After that, I'm going to have to vote... feathery.

It has feathers.
It is traffic cone orange.
That means for most people it is something they should stay away from.
You are different.
I am sure that you either have or will find a skirt that makes it so cute I want to throw up.

the other white matt - is feathery fab or GF? let me know!

Michael - you've already seen the purse - I wore it at the rehearsal and the rehearsal dinner for the wedding with that huge white skirt and flow-y orange top. Also, F or GF?

It's as fabulous as something that feathery can be.

Can someone (anyone) define the difference between fabulous and ghetto-fabulous?
Remember this needs to be a description that your average, not fashion aware guy can understand.

I don't think it would go with khakis so I don't think I would use it.

Its all in how you wear it. Wear it like Carrie Bradshaw, its fabulous. Wear it like Lil Kim, its ghetto-fabulous. Kind of like a choose your own adventure, but with an orange feathery purse.

I don't know. Carrie Bradshaw wore some ghetto-fabulous things.

I vote fabulous. How often is it that you can incorporate orange and chiffon into your wardrobe at one time?

Just from the picture I would say ghetto fabulous. I've seen you put it all together ... and you make it fabulous. HOW do you do that?

Having seen this purse in person as part of a fabulous outfit, I must give it a fabulous rating. However, if I saw this purse in a store, my first thought would be "great for a cross-dressing prostitute." And yet somehow now all I see when I look at that purse is a bride-to-be with two X chromosomes.

And yes, Carrie wore some awful outfits. The disaster she wore to the club with the bed theme to yell about being dumped via post-it note comes to mind.

Today at work we had a vote on the purse - I wore an orange skirt (not as awesome as my original orange outfit, but still...) and we displayed the purse and e-liz had ballots made up. The results were tallied:
14 Fabulous
13 Ghetto-Fabulous
1 Faux-Fabulous (a write in)

Thankfully Fabulous won that contest. I would have been so crushed.

one of my coworker's reponses: I would think a politician's daughter would be better at ballot stuffing.

Michael: G-F is what Beyonce or Lil Kim would wear...

Michelle: I love that you called it a choose your own adventure with an orange feathery purse! Fantastic!

Nagemiu: If we could incorporate orange and chiffon more into our everyday lives, we could solve world hunger.

Susan: I do it because I'm FABULOUS!

Elizabeth: I think it's a compliment to be compared to a cross dressing prostitute - those ladies have style!

Marcia, where was I the day of this post?!?! Surely I would have commented. I agree with Michelle. But Marcia, I believe that you can pull off fabulous with anything, no matter how fluffy or orange.

ha! Kat, it was last friday, the 14th. And the purse is fabulous. Your new shoes remind me of the purse! Do tell me you kept the shoes, right?
