Make No Mistake, Accessories Count

Tuesday, June 29th, 2010

I stop­ped dead in my scro­lling tracks when, while peru­sing my feed-reader, I saw an article tit­led Elena Kagan v. Sonia Soto­ma­yor: Who Wore It Bet­ter? I kid you not. An article on whether Sonia or Elena wore the blue jac­ket black shirt ensem­ble with more panache. I was appa­lled. How dare they treat women like this. There was even a poll for rea­ders to vote. Again, I kid you not.

Dis­gus­ted, I chose future jus­tice Kagan simply because she acces­so­ri­zed bet­ter. Make no mis­take, acces­so­ries count when you’re han­ding over this country to the likes of Veri­zon, Pfi­zer, Blue Cross Blue Shield, and Bank of America.

I’m simi­larly astoun­ded that peo­ple are wri­ting about being appa­lled, and it’s get­ting more cove­rage than say.… the depres­sion we are surely hea­ding into, and that pesky oil leak

But never mind that. What do you think? For the wee­kend warrior look, who do you feel here? Roberts with the open neck no undershirt, bla­zer and kha­kis, or Tho­mas with the kha­kis, logo shirt and undershirt pea­king through?

Who really looks like a Supreme Court jus­tice on a wee­kend sabbatical?
