Pooh, right on. I'm like Huell Howser in that I find just about everyone and everything fascinating, lol. Once they tell their story I find them attractive in some way.

LL, how true!

Kate, the people I'm going with are definitely Hollywood style (direct from Hollywood, actually.) The other attendees will be just regular folks. I grew up around very judgemental people for whom looks and style were everything; it affects me still. I live in my own little non-judgmental bubble until the real world catches up with me, then I panic! Yes, there will be cocktails at this event :) Maybe everyone will be wearing beer goggles, tee-hee.


Pen, I was searching for an Oscar Wilde quote that I wanted to add to Doe's quote thread and came across this gem and thought of you.

"Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it every six months."  Oscar Wilde.  That cracked me right up.

Now I gotta find this quote of his I'm after, I remember the gist of it but want the exact thing.
   
People throw rocks at things that shine - Taylor Swift

How true is that? Some of the things so-called fashion experts come up with are very odd, and thankfully aren't around long; parachute pants, anyone? And who decided torn sweatshirts were the bomb (a la Flashdance?)
Respect ... is appreciation of the separateness of the other person, of the ways in which he or she is unique.
