I have yet to get sucked into the wide world of Pinterest. All my friends keep talking about it but to be honest, all I ever hear people talking about is what a time suck it is – I don’t understand why in the world people would voluntarily sign up for something they know was going to consume all their free time! But you know me, I love being part of a trend so I checked it out with my internet.clear.com connection but I just don’t understand what all the fuss was about. I mean, it’s like a giant bulletin board – what’s the big deal? I don’t get why people seem to think it’s the greatest thing since sliced bread when all it is is a regurgitation of other things on the web. I think it’s cool people are able to show off their style and all that but at the end of the day it’s still just a bunch of images pinned to a board – what’s so cool about that? I don’t get it.
Well It’s Good in Theory
I love burnout shirts. They are everywhere right now. I thought that most of them wouldn’t survive a lot of washing but so far they have held up a lot better than I expected them to originally. However, the disappointing part comes from the new application. Now there are tons of burnout cardigans and long sleeve shirts. While this may look cool it is actually cool. I live in Utah and wear long sleeves because I actually need them. Whenever I see someone who doesn’t feel good or has had new back surgery I hope they have comfy clothes against their skin. However, I have found that also the material is weird. What looks fine as short sleeves make everyone even with the skinniest arms look like they are ripping out of their sleeves. I guess it would be fine if you want a Hulk Hogan moment but unless you layer it; there things are useless.
Bella Bird
Bella Bird is a new fashion line at Wal-Mart of all places. It basically looks like an inexpensive version of Downeast Basics. It’s still pricier than what you’d usually pay at Wal-Mart. It’s more of Kohl’s price tag. At the moment it’s only available in select stores in Utah and Idaho. Sometimes when there’s just a statewide company like pennsylvania energy I wish that everyone else had a chance for it too and Bella Bird is that way too. I don’t now if the modest fashions would do as well in other states though.
I would actually go out of my way to shop at one of these stores. I hope that it’s around to stay and that the line expands. All of the fabrics are so soft. The other thing I wasn’t expecting was that certain pieces were hand wash only which also isn’t usually a Wal-mart Trademark. Have you tried the Bella Bird line?
