Pink is the New Freaky


Ever think Darth Vader was just a bit too dark?


His basic black, although a stunning example of Quasi-Bondage Goth Daywear, may have been more appropriate to the 1980's punk and underground scene than to the prefabricated, American-Idolized kiddies of today who are pressed out of the mold faster than Pimpercrombie & Bitch can say 'lawsuit'.



Darth, sweetie, how about updating that classic look with a splash of color and some iconography which speaks to a broader audience?







Now even little Suzie - age 4 - can be lured into the Wars merchandising machine.




And don't forget to accessorize!








That's it ladies. See? Epic intergalactic battles and semiautomatic sub-machine gun fire isn't just for boys, anymore!



But you don't have to lose your femininity. Think Gene Harlow, think Gretta Garbo, think...



Dita Von Teese


...Looking fabulous in faux fur and oozing silver screen chic, there is no doubt that pink can be perfect....




Of course, recreating this look outside of an international, multi-million dollar centerfold magazine studio can lead to dire impoverished results:







"Love your pets; just don't LOVE your pets."

Of course, the first thought I had about the last picture in your lovely witty commentary was...

"What does a woman with enormously huge breasts have to do with anything?"

What breasts?! I'm looking at the DOG!



(It's a poor use of pink....
Someone get her a pink bra!)

Oh yeah, the dog.

It'd be cooler if her dog had enormously huge pink breasts.
