Ok, so what are the chances a friend of yours will come across a random picture of you on someone's obscure blog under their worst dressed list? Well it happened to me, lool! This picture was posted on http://poorlydressed.failblog.org.
Yes, it is odd that I am sitting on a leopard print chair, wearing leopard pants on the NYC subway.. but you gotta do what u gotta do! I bought this chair from a girl on craigslist for $40! amazing deal.. At the moment, Maury is holding the chair for me until I get more space...Apparently a few readers found this image disturbing, enough to threaten to punch me and call me an a-hole..Even after that awful comment I still found this funny...and I actually enjoyed the press ;-))
Here's the direct link to the blog but below I posted the picture and all the comments thus far, including some of my own. Hopefully you guys can laugh along with me :-)

.....and here is my fab chair temporarily adorning Maury's office...
Hope y'all got a kick out of this post ;-)

I've never heard of that blog before (and unlikely will return, I don't want my eyes to get damaged), but judging from the list of awfully dressed people there, you don't belong there, they were just hating.
ReplyDeletethat is the most random thing ever! and it's sad that someone can sneak a photo of you and post it on the internet without your knowledge - a little bit scary actually. I don't understand why people would get so rude about a picture though - who would take that so serious? Do people really think someone would bring their own leopard chair to sit on the train? Really? LOL!
ReplyDeleteI commend you for taking the high road and standing up for yourself in the comment section. I love your fashion sense because you do whatever you want when you want, and how you want! kudos to you my friend!
You are so awesome for how you handled it. I was pleasantly surprised that so many took up for you. There is hope for us yet!
ReplyDeleteOOOOMG...this is AMAZING...cause ur AMAZING! hahaha...the power of press and context. The conversations made me lol, ur funny Gisela. xx
ReplyDeletethe 2nd person's comment cracked me up! I thought that one was cute! It's good to have a sense of humor though and you handled it well. :)
ReplyDeleteThis is amazing. What an honor. I guess you haven't really made it until people are trashing you on the internets.
ReplyDeleteI also like to quote Diana Vreeland at times like this: "Too Much good taste can be boring."
Can I get an A-to-the-Men!
God, what a stupid blog. I don't even know why you're on there! Nevertheless, I'm glad you handled it with humor!
ReplyDeleteHilarious! Love how you handled it...
