Taking the Little Black Dress to Its Logical Extreme

I just came across a fascinating little blog called The Uniform Project. (Hat tip: Beauty Tips for Ministers).

The blogger has 7 identical little black dresses and is wearing one every day for an entire year. She says it is an exercise in "sustainable fashion". She posts a photo each day of the outfit she puts together and notes where and to what events she has to go each day then asks her readers to rate her efforts.

She's really quite creative though some of them totally miss the mark, but it's all for a good cause as well. What's your favorite outfit? Which one is a true fashion disaster?

Something fun to browse through on a hot summer's day!

Thanks to my friend TJ for sending this to me!

John Who??

It's the silly presidential primary season, so the whole QG family sat down this evening and took one of those little internet quizzes that tells you which presidential candidate's positions are most like your own that was sent to El Jefe from one of his friends.

El Jefe, DK and Portia were told that John Cox was their candidate. My candidate was Tancredo (who dropped out a long time ago), with Cox as my second choice. Babs's top candidate was Obama, which she attributed to the number of "undecideds" she checked in her quiz. Cox was her third choice.

Which leaves us with the question --just who the heck is John Cox? And why do we match up with him? And is he even still in the race? If so, where? And should we care because he isn't going to be on the ballot in Texas anyway and we couldn't vote for him if we wanted to?

Hugh Cort, Duncan Hunter and Hoa Tran are on the Texas Republican primary ballot for president, though. Anyone know who they are? Didn't think so.

So much for internet quizzes! Bah, humbug!

I saw this at Jan's place, and couldn't resist trying it. Wonder if this will convince Portia and Babs that Mom knows whereof she speaks. Probably not!
