pen @ 03:22 pm: The Rules explained....
Based on some things that have happened in the last month, I have updated the rules of the community again.  Please check the userinfo for the updated rules.

I do want to say to the community that I think this is a fun and enjoyable community that I want to see be more active.  Even if I can't update everyday, I would love to see this community updated everyday.  But I have some concerns based on some things I've seen in that last month.

The biggest concern that I have right now is that posts to the community generate discussion within the community.  All that means is if you're posting something, there needs to be something people can talk about here within the community.  Links going elsewhere that generate discussion elsewhere make the community appear dead to a casual observer.  As long as your not promoting anything, you're not breaking the rules, but please do try to use links to generate discussion here.

Posts of quizzes and memes will be deleted.  They are truly meant for your personal IJ.   It's one thing to discuss a meme that's popular or a quiz, it's another to post your results to the community.  Please don't.

Like I said, keep the discussion coming! 

Thanks, guys!

A recent article in the Wall Street Journal made mention of couture designers who select runway models to fit their clothes, and in turn they carry it over into their ready-to-wear designs that expect the potential wearer/buyer to fit their bodies to the clothes, rather than designing clothes to fit peoples' bodies.

Do you think that's true? Have you ever bought something that didn't exactly fit, but you were determined to make yourself fit into it because it the latest, greatest thing in fashion?
