It's gold damask and purple velvet with bejeweled buttons. I saw it and thought, "Mick Jagger would wear this outfit while smoking hashish and getting his dick sucked in a crumbling Notting Hill mansion, circa 1970."<BR/>And that, dear Anonymous, is my standard of sartorial excellence.vjduttonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09844779236206943495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31301795.post-79760392699967094722008-09-02T16:30:00.000-04:002008-09-02T16:30:00.000-04:00I do also recall a BASYS memo sent by no other tha...I do also recall a BASYS memo sent by no other than Tom Johnson that set forth a few CNN fashion rules as well. I believe they were as follows:<BR/><BR/>-- No Sweatpants or Track Suits<BR/>-- No Tube Tops <BR/>-- No Tye Dye T-Shirts (unless its Versace, of course!)<BR/><BR/>The second rule sabotaged Lynne Russell's career (no tube top = no ratings) and in regards to the third bullet, Versace, really? We might have been poor and couldn't afford it anyway, but most of us at least had taste.<BR/><BR/>Speaking of, VJ Dutton, that dress in the photo above is fabulous.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31301795.post-88039701235615411642008-09-02T09:03:00.000-04:002008-09-02T09:03:00.000-04:00I never stopped perming my hair.

There were actually 12 rules, but I trimmed it down to 10. I cannot believe you remember that!
