IKEA No-shlag No-shlag's

A day at IKEA is fun if you can master the parking situation and the unique names. No, those aren't light bulbs they are keldenfelders.

It was crazy shoe day at IKEA.




Betty: This gal was super cute in her 60's black and white houndstooth dress with matching black tights. Her boots however were a yucky tan that frankly just didn't go. I would suggest these as an option:




Wilma: Oh, good choice. Honestly, any boot in black would have been better. I love camel color boots but not with black & white check. Amazingly enough, I don't think her husband even noticed!













Betty: Tisk Tisk Tisk, the black skirt with the blue athletic tights were terrible enough and then add the Nanook of the North Let's-Trek-Alaska boots and I want to hurl. (Girlfriend, Carrie Bradshaw you ain't.) I wouldn't ever dare to do the black/blue tight combo - but if I was forced to I might soften the look with ballet slippers:


Wilma: It's as if we've gone back in time to the 80's. The 80's were not good. I'm sorry, I can't right any more, I'm having some terrible flashbacks that involve off the shoulder sweatshirts a la Flashdance and neon.









Betty: This one is a little bit harder to see, but these are the appropriately named "UGG"s paired with a blue earthgirl skirt. I think she forgot that with the earthy clothes Burkenstocks are the preferred footwear. I might have chosen these shoes instead:

Wilma: Honestly, only women of a certain age should wear Uggs. Trust me, she was not in the appropriate demographic.
