Mariah Carey I Love You – We Should All Wear Evening Gowns To The Park
I heard today that Mariah Carey was seen in NYC at a park pushing her kids on swings while wearing a full length evening gown and heels.
I don't care about the gown. What is goin' on with that black Micheal Jackson glove?
It's Mimi's business if she wants to head out to the park dressed like that or not.
Her wardrobe is probably only consists of boob enhancing glamourous evening gowns that she only gets to wear once.
Once.
Otherwise people are all up in her bi-ness saying, " Why did you repeat that dress? What happened? Are you on welfare now? "
Maybe this is her way of getting a bit more use out of her wardrobe.
I personally would love to wear all my fancy clothes more often.
Heck if I had kids maybe I'd even be taking them to the park while I ran after them in my mermaid tail gown…falling down in the sand every few feet.
Note to self: I don't think I'll be having kids so I can wear my "good clothes" more often. It just seems like too much work for the sake of wearing a gown to the park.
I can do other stuff in my "good" clothes.
This outfit below would be perfect for…oh I don't know…
…taking the dog to the vet.
Her white fur wouldn't really show up when paired next to all the sequins and embroidery.
I could keep a few doggie treats in the clutch and several poop bags. One can never have enough poop bags I find.
The gold heels could act as a form of payment since it seems like it costs the equivalent of few ounces of gold every time I'm at the vet.
I'm really pumped about this.
I'm all excited thinking about what I'll wear next to wash the floors.
Do you get enough use out of your fancy items in your closet? Or are you like Mimi and me…trying to devise new activities and every day chores where you can wear them?

More Photos & Unusual Facts About The South of France
While in France we were lucky enough to have a private tour guide (Robert's sister's boyfriend) drive us around a bit. Thanks Phillip! This shot is looking down on Cap Ferrat.
Cap Ferrat was named in 2012 as the second most expensive residential location in the world after Monaco.
We ate a great lunch at this marina there.
Visiting a village in the mountains.
I love how this lady was dressed to do her shopping! One of the very few that caught my eye when I was away.
A quickie tour through Monaco, the smallest and the most densely populated country in the world. It also has one of the largest police forces, 515 officers for 35,000 residents. You can see them on every single street corner. Oh! And they have elevators on the street so you don't have to walk up the steep hills. No joke. San Fransisco…are you listening?
Beautiful old monastery in Nice.
Taking a little after lunch nap.
Someone asked me if I went shopping while I was away. I tried. I found very little in the way of unique items of clothing and also the prices were outrageous. The Euro is almost double the Canadian dollar and even without the conversion I found all the prices too high.
More Interesting Facts About France
They don't quite "get" the idea of a thrift store.
We were in Galeries Lafayette (their nice department store) we came across a section marked as "Vintage". It was quite well merchandised.
It was a thrift store in the middle of what in Canada would be a similar equivalent, The Bay department store, or in the States, Macys.
A crazy vastly overpriced thrift store. As in, a pair of cut-off jeans from the 1980's for $70. WHAT???
I am sure that they got the product for free, or less than a Euro. All they had done was maybe clean it, hang it, and attach a fancy Galeries Lafayette store tag and a hugely inflated price.
Pffffth.
Seriously.
I don't know if this is because thrift stores aren't as popular, or people don't really know what they are, or what. It is one huge scam though.
Also, as my husband pointed out, no French people were shopping there. It was all tourists, many Asian, and some from the US and Canada.
Needless to say I didn't buy a thing.
They Don't Have Kale
They don't even know what it is. Thanks to protectionist laws in France that keep a strict control on what is imported as far as food is concerned they are without the number one trending superfood in in the world today. Apparently a gal from Pittsburgh is trying to introduce kale, the wonder green to France by bringing in seeds for the farmers of France to plant. I don't think it has gotten too far though since no one in Nice seemed to know about it.
I didn't see one smoothie shop either. But I did find a wonderful traditional ice cream shop : )
Over Tanning
People in the south love to tan. I mean, really really tan so that they start to look like a well used leather handbag or a version of The Tanning Mom. To each his own I suppose.
I saw something hilarious when we were walking on the Promenade des Anglais one day. It was a bit cool with a little wind. There was a man walking down the promenade wearing a white man-kini (barely there swim trunks). His body was hairless, toasted cinnamon bronze, sleek & slippery as a seal, slathered in coconut oil. Walking next to him, what I assume was his partner, a gal dressed in a knee length down coat wearing a wool hat and jeans.
????
How I wish I'd taken a photo!
I will have one more post coming up with our photos from France.
Have you noticed anything unusual about some of the places you've travelled to?
