So, yesterday, I think my "gay" quotient went up about 15 degrees.
I was at the drugstore to pick up some stamps so I could FINALLY send out the last of my mailed invitations, when I saw that Lady Gaga was on the cover of Vogue magazine. You heard me, I bought a copy of Vogue because Lady Gaga was on the cover.
Now, I've never actually bought a copy of Vogue before, but I always wondered what the big deal was. That thing is less of a magazine, and more of an epic tome of fashion!
When I went to go pick the thing up, I only grabbed the first 50 pages or so, 'cause I figured it wouldn't be that big! It must be at least 2 inches thick, and is pretty much filled cover to cover with ads of all of the major fashion houses around the world.
I must admit, it was definitely interesting to flip through the "magazine" and see all the different styles that the major fashion houses have. It was also fun to see the actual clothing/shoes/make up that you always hear about from places like Gucci, Prada, Michael Kors, DKNY, Cover Girl, Juicy Couture. Mixed in were the hilarious ads from KMart. That was definitely unexpected. I don't normally pay all that much attention to how clothes are made, but when you put a KMart ad next to a Gucci ad, you're bound to notice a difference in craftsmanship...and man was there ever a difference!!
Anyway, back to the topic at hand, the wedding! I have always said to my good friend April that I would walk down the isle in nothing less than Vera Wang. Well, my copy of Vogue magazine has a spread of Vera Wang outfits, and man, that woman can design a dress! (As well as flowers, plates and shoes. Her name sells things, I guess...) The next time you see a copy of Vogue, open it up and see if you can find it. It is absolutely gorgeous!
If only my budget were a little bigger...
