For some reason, I get Nia Peeples confused with Sheila E. There is no good reason for this. They have very little in common. I think it must be all the similar vowels in their names, and I guess they look sort of alike, say, if you only have one eye (for what it's worth, I am not so afflicted). Of course, I also get Sheila E confused with Sheena Easton. Basically, it's a wonder that I ever leave the house in one piece. But despite my confusion and ignorance regarding 80s musical acts (did you know that Nia was Liberace's opening act in Vegas? Neither did I, until just now), I am pretty sure that NO ONE -- not Nia, Sheila, or Sheena -- should be wearing this to any event that didn't include the words "belly-dancing lessons" or "dress code: sequined beachy" on the Evite.
