Sarah Palin's new Spring Fashion Accessory


Like everyone else, I have been scouring the websites of my favorite stores, looking for an extra bargain on a sweater or pair of pants, and I realized, that I have completely missed the trend train. I have always regarded national fashion icons as Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, Audrey Hepburn, Heidi Klum from Project Runway, etc. But, I underestimated the Power of Palin. I found the pink blazers, stylish boots, shiny business suits, and red pumps very inspiring. I even got a new pair of glasses frames, inspired solely by Governor Palin. Now, her corsage offers another option for adding a "pop of color", per Stacy and Clinton, to the corporate, government official look.  The prom chaperone-chic look will slowly seep through the runways of New York's Olympus Fashion Week.  Hopefully, it will be as quick a hideous fashion trend as booties and high-wasted jeans.  
I am actually experimenting with Bluefly.  The clothes are cute and they have the label-designer stuff that most people wish they could afford.   Along with the accessible BCBG and Theory, there is also the occasional piece from Hermes, Prada, Vera Wang, etc.  For those who live on their credit cards, are obsessed with emulating celebrity fashion, and have a psychiatric disorder, this is a great website.
