Calvin Klein fall 2012 makes me miss Carolyn Bessette Kennedy

Calvin Klein went ahead and doubled down on everything that Calvin Klein represents.  Precision understatement & perfect shapes. It makes me miss looking at Carolyn Bessette Kennedy in clothes.  If you say you don't, you're lying.

 TWO PERFECT DRESSES:

One perfect LBD

One perfect LPD (Little Poppy Dress)

You can see why the collection makes me miss Carolyn.  She was a publicist at Calvin Klein and always rocked classic all American style. 

Bam!  I remember this like yesterday.  This pic was taken on the morning JFK JR. formally introduced her to the paps as his wife, and asked them to respect their privacy. Snoring.  Loudly. You're a Kennedy and not just any Kennedy, you're freakin' John John.  You get no privacy.  Or at least not the kind daddy got when he was taking afternoon swims with the 19 year old intern during the Cuban Missile Crisis.  

But none of that is important.  What truly matters is her hair.  Mom and I shared a very organic obsession with her BLONDE. It  took up a lot of "long distance" minutes between NYC and Austin.  (Remember "long distance?"  Hahahaha.)  So much so, WE decided I should go to her THEN hairdresser, Brad Johns. Who, BTdubs, eventually received a cease and desist letter because he couldn't stop talking about her as a client.  

I was always slighty overstimulated by her make up on this night because she used a little red eye liner in the corners and it worked!  That's the day I learned a hint of red or violet around the eyes can be gorgeous.  

So, I go see her stylist Brad Johns.  And the shit that transpired was next level A**HOLE.  Brad himself touched my hair and informed me I could NOT be blonde, which knocked the wind out of me.  He said the best I could hope for would be a "Jen Anniston dishwater blonde."  He spent exactly two minutes with me, and had one of his minions give me the fugliest prison grey "highlights" I had ever seen.  IF there is one thing in this world I CANNOT ABIDE, it is a GODDAMN ASHY HIGHLIGHT. 

ME, NOT BEING ABLE TO BE BLONDE!  AS IF!

AND THEN, THEN, AFTER WASHING MY HAIR, THE MINION HANDED ME A BLOW DRYER!!!!! TO BLOW DRY MY OWN HAIR!!!!!!!  WHAT BITCH?  On the tip line, I wrote, "AS IF."  In short, Bite me Brad.  I might give you a decade+ overdue shitastic YELP, BRAD.  Look for me!

A heated fight between JJ and CBK. You're Welcs!
