orange you glad?

okay, we all know that laying out in the sun is bad for you, but fake tans are just as bad - seriously, tangerine is not a natural color for human skin. i work in a relatively affluent shopping center (and to clarify, i don't work at b.dalton or payless shoes - my office happens to be in the 3rd story of a building in the shopping center) and half of the women shopping there have the whole paris hilton thing going - platinum hair (probably extensions), orange leathery skin, aviator glasses the size of a small car, and clear lucite stripper shoes - can someone please explain the appeal of this look?

  • I take complete offence at your remarks. It's better to look bronzed and healthy, without getting skin cancer than looking white and sickly...

  • first of all - i take OFFENSE at your spelling
    second of all - sure you're ian thorpe the olympian, and i'm the queen of england (and if you were an olympian - 1 - you probably wouldn't identify yourself as an olympian and 2 - you would have taken much more offense at my rant about how lame the olympics are)
    third of all - admittedly, lightly BRONZED skin can look fine, but, had you been paying attention to the actual post, i was ranting about people with ORANGE skin - bronze - orange - two different colors (pick up a box of crayons sometime and research it sometime)
    and lastly - thanks for stopping by :)
