Dear Lucky, are you kidding me?

Since Domino magazine folded several months ago... thank you economy and other stupid heads... they've been sending me LUCKY as a replacement. While I appreciate the gesture, let it be known that LUCKY is NO replacement for DOMINO. It just isn't.

Domino was the "Lucky" for the home. It was the perfect blend of inspiration & products both fancy and affordable. I could find great lamp ideas, sheets, wallpapers... I mean it was my dream magazine, next to Blueprint which also folded. I just LOVE looking at other peoples homes, don't you? So many home magazines are either too designy, modern or country for my taste. Domino just seemed like my people, you know? We had a great relationship and I miss it.

I thought I could ride out this whole LUCKY business, after all, I'm strong and I like clothes...maybe I might find something or learn something... right??

But then I turned the page one day and saw this... please excuse my high school-esque notes!

 

 I mean, what more do I have to say?? Animal prints, black nylons, tight rolled pants (which I think could be cute on tighter, darker pants maybe) moccasins, fringe?????

The top two outfits, while not horrible, are certainly not what I'd call fashion forward or inspirational.  if I want to see normal outfits I'd like, got outside or something!

And I don't care if it's "IN".... If my "Interior Designer" (top right) showed up wearing two plaids, I don't think I could trust her!
