Snuggies Sexy?

I was recently making yet another trip to one of my favorite stores 'HEB'. As I am rummaging through the store, like the hungry girl I was, I couldn't help but do a double take on what I saw standing on its own shelf in the middle of the aisle. No, it wasn't delicious cookies, or fresh baked bread. Nor was it food related at all. But low and behold my least favorite item......the dreadful, hideous SNUGGIE!

You see months ago, when I saw the infomercial I laughed 'oh how funny', people can't actually like this thing, just another infomercial. But then I got a frightening e-mail a month later of one of my beloved authors wearing one of these things. As a girl in the fashion world, I pride myself in helping the ones I love look stylish, trendy and cute, as well as dressing age appropriate and never falling for stupid fads that will fade with the times. So as you can imagine to see my favorite author in this, I was appalled! I wanted to call her and have a reality check with her, let her know that someone with her beauty and talent and cuteness should NEVER wear this, let alone take a photo of it.

But then the worst news of all, as I wa reviewing designers fashion shows for the season. I came across something that was terrifying. A SNUGGIE FASHION SHOW!..... yes I said it. Really, people its bad enough to have this thing on the market, and people actually buy it and look like an idiot, but to give it its own fashion show?!? What's next a 'sham wow' designer bottle? Its $19.99 and you want me to pay $999.99 for a designer snuggie!?! You have to got to be out of your mind.....

Take a look for yourself....

The snuggie fashion show

Now it is one thing to make this horrendous item , for people to buy and wear in their own home, when no one is around, an item that they hide and deny that they ever bought. It is another thing to think it is fashionable, create its own fashion show, and sexy? REALLY! you have got to be freakin' kidding me, and a snoggie?!? for a dog, I can barely get a collar on my dog never the less a blanket that attacks his whole head, body and legs?!?..... enough is enough.....snuggie out!!
