What Was Sista Thinking? Wednesday

{The Art of Crassy}

I saw this article in the July Allure. It is far too good to pass up. All I ask is that you don't get your panties in a wad about this. I had plenty of thing on the Trashy list that I j'adore: Kobe Beef Sliders. Yes, please. I love my fair share of tickity tack-- sequin anything, the more bejeweled the better. Besides, I'd way rather be trashy than crassy. At least if you're trashy, you're reveling in the trainwreck. Crassiness involves total oblivion. Being completely unaware of trying too hard. Now that, is truly trashy. And while I'm on a roll, I think the word "classy" is crassy. PS: I love blogging because I get to say the things I think in my head without it being too terribly offensive. Glorious!

Here are some of my crassy/tacky additions:

Exploiting your designer gear (especially when it's emblazoned with their logo). And, Paris Hilton, for that matter. She is the epitome of Crassy. Can you think of anyone who tries harder?

Square. French. Manicure. The square took it from Trashy to Trailer Park.

What are your favorite crassies and trashies?
