Heather is a stronger woman than I am in many ways, and one of them is that she has managed to avoid getting sucked into the Bravo programming black hole that is The Real Housewives of Wherever. I watch them ALL. It is my SHAME. In fact, I was driving home from somewhere yesterday and I found myself ruminating on how I think it's kind of surprising that Bravo hasn't phased out The OC for Malibu or Beverly Hills, because apparently this is how I'm using my brain power now. (I also just want someone to explain to me why all of those specific members of the franchise look like their wardrobes have been exclusively obtained from Forever XXI. No offense to FXXI -- I've gotten many a piece of disposable fashion there -- but when you've shelled out for Gucci, you don't want it to look like it cost $12.99 and can be returned only for store credit and yet they are all always flouncing around in shiny jewel-toned halter tops with giant diamond brooches on them and I do not understand where else they're even getting those any more.) I do not know why I watch these shows so religiously. I just know that I do. I don't even want to question it. I just let it wash over me. But anyway, RHNY was pretty entertaining this past season, and Jill Zarin here was, I thought, possibly the LEAST crazy of all the ladies in the cast:
Although I would also argue that Alex is not crazy either. She is ECCENTRIC, but not crazy. But we could be here all day talking about these women, you know? Let's just say that after much thought, I decided Jill was probably the best-adjusted. Maybe. Although...never mind. Let's table this discussion of the varying mental healths of the women of this show and talk about her outfit. I feel that while the silhouette is flattering, I may have seen it on the person playing Guenevere in a Las Vegas revival of Camelot in which everyone was also wearing roller skates. I suspect that it's a bit much of a muchness, as a former boss of mine used to say.
