good afternoon to all my readers, particularly the one, the only, the singular Yuval. my, he's a good egg.

as many of you remember, a while back i spent some blogtime ranting about the Levi's super-low-rise jeans ad with the headless woman whose navels sang "I'm Coming Out." well, for some strange reason, today is the day to revisit that dark time. don't ask me why, i started looking at book reviews for Naomi Wolf's new book about pregnancy and childbirth (which apparently is not so terrific anyway), and i wound up at a slightly flaky yet heart-warming site called loveyourbelly.com. ahhhh, props. so read that and then contrast it to the evil empire of Levi's, and then get a slightly more balanced view on this hilarious lowrise jeans bulletin board. all i have to say is, BRING BACK THE 80's! and by that i mean big layered pastel knits, stirrup pants, thigh-length sweaters, and all, not this Debbie Harry spike-heeled dealie they're on about these days. that's my fashion $0.02, i suppose.
