    Now you've started off my Monday morning with "b-b-b-b-b-BAD. Bad to the Bone" going through my head. I owe you an incredible debt of gratitude. ;-)

    Somehow you make "bad" look so good!

    Freakin' badassery all over the place! Does this mean you've had your birthday?? I should have known you were a fellow Libra, not that I put any stock in that garbage (astrology, not birthdays - birthdays are awesome).

    I resent the implication that big trousers are bad!! These are my ULTIMATE wishlist trousers!!! I like big trousers and I can't deny...

    Damn, that "farked tartan jacket" and massive pants are such a BadAss outfit (and your ass-kicking pose is pretty awesome too).
    You are bad Mel, very, very bad.

    You are an enigma - how old is Melanie - what sign is she - was she the youngest daughter in a family of 12 - is she allowed to travel outside Canada - does she have paint under her fingernails - does she swear when she sews (I do - a lot) - does she really eat cake for breakfast - does she know the difference between an em dash and an en dash and a hyphen? I think to answer to all those questions is YES.

    Whoops - I think *THE* answer to all those questions - and more - is yes.

    You were born to the Bad Look. Which is actually very good. It's talk like a sheep day now! xo

    Say it like a goat! Put that on a tee : )

    Are you really the youngest in a family of 12???

    You look like you could stomp on a few heads in this outfit.

    Suzanne, that's part of the "enigma of Mel." Haha. No, I prefer to think more along the lines of Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast as Tiffany's and I have a whole passel of youngins' I left back on the farm with Jeb. Soon I'll run away to a ranch in Brazil.

    I think I need to add "plaiderday" to my vocabulary. And I also think you are responsible for a weird cameo appearance of Michael Jackson in my dream last night singing "Bad, I'm bad, you know it..." ! LOVE those wide leg trousers. When can we go shopping together???

    Clad in plaid, by Gad - no fad - a one-woman ad for being BAAAD… Oooh dear,I seem to have had a wobbly, rhyme-y moment there. I think I was overcome by all the delicious badness.

    I'm curious. How is it to be Vancouver's biggest star? Do you have authority in matters concerning the city development authority and so on ...?

    Gah- you look stunning, chic and so good at being bad! Love the jacket- the plaid- what a pity my humble plaid linkup closed before you could link it. I wish you were in my magazines.

    You're so bad that it becomes good again. And reverses back to bad. Ooooooh, trippy!

    Looking fab, Mel, as always.
