April 24



I had a pretty photo of my landlady's "miracle flowers," all lined up for the Photo of the Day today. Then, on my commute to work, this lady walked by.

Oh. My. God.

On the spot, I decided that today's POTD would be fauna, not flora. I drove by this woman and stopped at the red light, three or four cars back. Then I got my camera and waited, hoping for once that the light wouldn't change too soon.

Our fashion victim strutted past. Yes, strutted. From her attitude, it was obvious that she thought she was lookin' goooood in this outfit. It was fascinating to watch, really. I know a new outfit, a new hairstyle or even new accessories can make you feel good, but I've never seen an example quite so heinous as this ensemble have that effect.

My friend Sean describes this look as "the Great Wall of Panty Line," topped by "the Golden Gate Bra." I couldn't have said it better myself.

As for the Photoshop, I was playing around and liked the effect on the right side. While it didn't make her dress look better, per se, it at least made it less startling in context.
