Admitting you have a problem is the first step

I'm Kalisah and I'm powerless over turtlenecks.

As I posted that yesterday, I found myself practically slapped in the face with...err...support for my argument.


First, there is Oprah's new mag, with the "How Not to Look Old" cover story, which stressed several rules, one of which is illustrated here:

And I quote: "Dowdy jeans and a turtleneck are functional and forgettable: another reason to take good old Mom for granted." In my defense, I have eschewed the mom jeans. My jeans are stylish and hip. And apparently completely offset by my sick reliance on the turtleneck.

Then, there is Katie Holmes on the cover of the January InStyle:

Obviously I would wear a SHIRT under the vest for the office, but look what we have...a funky fresh SUIT. Professional and creative. And probably WAAAAY out of my price range. Still, it's progress. Signs that I am at least facing the right direction now.
