I have to thank The Real Housewives of New York for one thing -- well, other than for entertaining me while I do things like work on this here Web site. Anyone who watched this past season surely recalls the episode where Kelly Bensimon here yapped about keeping up her fitness whilst jogging... THROUGH THE STREETS OF NEW YORK. No. LITERALLY. IN the street. Not on the sidewalk or in the park. In the CENTER of a LANE in the ACTUAL STREET with, like, taxis trailing her patiently. Girl, please. If the Bravo cameras had not been there and arranged that entire shot, you KNOW those cab drivers would have run her skinny ass down. As it was, that scene was HILARIOUS. And every time I myself go jogging -- on the sidewalk like a normal person -- I think of it and giggle. So thank you, Kelly, for giving me one brief moment of levity during my runs. And thank you for giving me some material for today:
I happen to be wearing those shoes right now -- holla at your J. Crew! -- but the rest of this is a total misfire. Leaving aside the fact that it MIGHT be a romper, it's DEFINITELY not supposed to be belted thusly, any more than your swimsuit cover-up requires belting. The fabric is cute, but Ms Kelly might a little too old to fully pull it off. Although I probably shouldn't say that too loud. Anyone who will blithely run in front of a taxi wouldn't have any problems with pushing me in front of one.
