Genius in Red Cowboy Boots

2 questions....

1. Why is Quentin Tarrantino giving people singing advice on American Idol?
2. Does anyone know the exciting thing about mid-April?

I can't answer the first question....but the second one, I can take a crack at. Mid-April means it's time for trend forecasts. FALL trend forecasts! We get to find out what's in for Fall 2009 and we get to plan our wardrobes accordingly. Obviously, no one who reads this actually does that...except for me of course. And guess what I just found out....

Cowboy boots are back! That's right, cowboy boots. And not just everyday cowboy boots, but colorful cowboy boots. Do you see where I'm going here? I owned a pair of red cowboy boots when I was 4 years old....red cowboy boots that I mulled over and cried about (I was an indecisive shopper even at that age) until my grandfather finally bought them for me and obviously, I was almost 20 years ahead of my time.

You know what this means? Trust your children and their crazy outfit choices because they might just be fashion geniuses. If they want to wear their black and white striped prison outfit with red cowboy boots, tell them they look fabulous and send them on their way. Who knows...20 years down the line, they might just be sitting pretty in a corner office with a window view of the capitol telling other people how to dress for a living. And yes, I'm bragging.
