My 17 year old sisters had to wear them and fend off patients. They quit because of it.

This was back in the 70s and some reason the hospitals were OK with minors being groped.

All I can see is the blonde hair. Of course there is nothing wrong with changing one's hair color. I've done it myself, albeit less drastically. And really, it's none of my business. It really isn't. I just can't seem to help really not liking it on her. At all.

I was already having a hard enough time trying to imagine her being governor of a whole state. I wouldn't be shocked if she'd run for a congressional seat, or even a lower statewide office. But governor? I just can't get my head around it. I guess I shouldn't be that surprised. I guess anyone named Huckabee is automatically a big fish in the little pond that is Arkansas.

I just find it all profoundly weird.

A stylist can craft a professional, polished, serious look.

Right, even a friend or a mirror would have told her this outfit was a complete disaster.

She’d look better in a dark pantsuit, white blouse, business pumps, about a foot less hair and a reasonable amount of makeup…but looking like she got dressed with the lights out is her personal style.

I’m more concerned about her governance, which is almost guaranteed to be worse than showing up for a press conference in a dress she made out of a mattress cover.

…and a snarky sense of humor, and loves bright splashy colors and outfits that are cut to fit her body-type. I may not like her politics and I don’t think she looks Senatorial, but she carries it off. (By the way, any woman in elective office who loves bright colors and wants to look professional should get an album of Nancy Pelosi photos. Impeccable.)

Poor Sarah wouldn’t know what verve is if it bit her on the nose. She looks depressed and angry in equal measure at all times — and her fashion choices reflect that.

I thought she tooks Scaramucci’s advice to heart. This looks less like a relapse and more like a bad hangover.

What has she done to her hair? Where do you even get a dress like that?
