11. LOLOL!!! You're good!
Trimming around the horns!! That's very challenging, delicate work for a hair dresser, you are right!!

Ok, I laughed so hard I had tears streaming down my face.

You're too funny!

Thanks for the laugh.

:)

15. I remember that!!! And it still makes me laugh today.
I was but a little pup and my father and I were watching the Carol Burnett Show. I think we laughed for HOURS over this! :)

Thanks for the memories, there!

4. She was ripped off
The style is not fashionable.
It should have some soft bangs in the front. Apparently Laura is so pleased with her Botox job, that she wants to show off her wrinkleless brow.

8. A $700 HAIRCUT???
I hope that at least included color and highlights or something???

And the freepers went apeshit when they thought KERRY had an expensive haircut????

She needs her money back. And NO haircut is worth $700, sorry.

(Sheesh, I thought mine were bad.)

9. The cut's not bad, although nothing particularly special
She could use a colorist, though. The hair color and slash of bright red lipstick give her face a sallow, unhealthy cast.

The rose/taupe moire gown doesn't help much.

I have a feeling she'd glow if she toned down that brinzy hair, that garish lipstick, and wore cooler colors.

18. Apparently she never looks in a mirror.
That's the only think I can conclude when I see pictures of her. Or maybe the designers who make her clothes actually hate her and are secretly laughing themselves silly at how terrible they can make her look.

And her hairdresser is vastly overpaid. And does a crappy job. She needs a softer hairdo -- it should be a little longer-- more highlights so that it looks less like a friggin helmet.

I wish Stacy and Clinton of "What Not To Wear" would do her. Actually, just envisioning the episode is a hoot. (Dear Stacy and Clinton, Our mom really needs a makeover. She wears clothes that are very frumpy and don't quite fit her. She's stuck in a fashion rut and needs your help. We've enclosed a few photos to show you. Please help! Jenna and Barbara)

21. I like the cut, but $700???
I think the color is a little brassy.

Yeah, she needs a colorist. Those darl lip shades make her lips look thin.

22. I saw different dresses a few days ago.
In the pictures I saw, Laura was wearing a skin tight silvery blue sort of lacy latex gown. Looked like she had been poured into it. It made her look fatter than she probably is. Jenna was wearing dark green and Barbara was wearing a nondescript color.

As for these outfits, I believe Barbara and Jenna must have traded dresses. The black and white stripes might look ok on Barbara. The light green is definitely Jennas. Maybe Jenna's was too small, and she couldn't get into it so the girls traded. They are definitely wearing each others styles if unintentionally.

As for Laura's looks, I think her hair is the best part. No comment as to the dress other than it looks like something Maria Theresa or Queen Victoria would have worn after they had given birth to their umpteen children.

These dresses remind me of the costumes I wore in my high school musical.

What a waste for people with no aesthetic sense to have the Bush's money. Is there no justice? I think we should fine members of the rich elite like the Bushies if they spend their money on ugly stuff. The proceeds would go a long way to fund public parks and beautification projects.

28. Yea, that's probably it. Those people don't even have enough
taste to hire someone with good taste to design their dresses for them.
Even the girl's dresses don't look good. Laura's looks particularly un-attractive, though.

29. The pic above is from the BLACK TIE AND BOOTS
ball, held the night before the coronation. It was full of Texans. The coronation balls, held the following night, is when she wore the silver dress.

I feel sorry for anyone having to be in any proximity to the weecowboy. That includes his family. How they must cringe, privately. They've GOT to know....

24. Recently saw an article about how their fashion sense had "evolved"
and improved over the last 4 years. But it included pictures of the Bushes wearing many unappealing outfits, so I didn't see any validity to the article at all. I'm not a fashionista, but I'm still a little puzzled by some of the things I see GW and Laura wearing.

26. I don't get it.

One would think that with all that money, they could afford the best designers. Yet, her dresses are very un-attractive and dowdy looking.

33. I think it is the way she carries herself. The woman is crass & stiff.

30. Now if it were Hillary
we'd be hearing wailing from the "liberal media" about how she was wasting the taxpayers money.
