Do you have a passion for fashion?
I'm trying to get away from watching so much politics, so I watch a lot of HSN and QVC for background noise.

Colleen Lopez - she is one of the hosts on HSN. I just can't imagine her closet. She must have so much jewelry - the home storage and management system for it all must be extensive.

It is starting to make me a bit nauseous. Just the excess of it.

It's taking all the fun out of what used to be nice, mindless entertainment.

1. Is that a reference to those old "Ideal" commercials from the 70's?
If you've got a passion for fashion
And you've got a craving for savings
Take the wheel
Of your automobile
And swing on down to Ideal!

Good grief--for decades my sister and I have thought that we'd imagined that terrible jingle. Don't tell me that you've been exposed to it, too?!?

5. Let me see
At last count I own four coats, zero purses, and three pairs of shoes.

Does that count as passion?


Thanks for the clarification--and thanks for putting that damned jingle into my head. I'll probably dream of polyester bellbottoms all night.

8. My 'passion' is that I find most modern 'fashion' ideas to be incredibly ugly.
