thursday is the big day.
back when the photos of the collection were first released, everyone was elated. then the complaints started rolling in. first it was the anti-H&M cost. then there was the photo of katie holmes wearing the polka-dotted blouse pre-release to the rest of us & then at least one more actress was seen wearing the pieces pre-release (i forget who) & suddenly the CdG for H&M collection that everyone was so jazzed about was a piece of crap that nobody would be caught dead in.
listen. i will be the first to admit that katie holmes was gagging me on a regular basis long before i saw her wearing the CdG for H&M pieces pre-release, so the photo just added insult to injury & made me want to toilet paper her house. all i'm saying is that it would be nice if just once *the collective media* covered some different ground before things actually happen, instead of the whole revere/pan/resuscitate cycle.
while i'm annoyed at *the collective media's* hijinx & hoohaa, i'm not letting them rain on my parade.
we're leaving for H&M on thursday at 9:30am. we are not making a big deal about this. we're just going to taking a general temperature of the situation in front of the H&M store & then we will either get in line or not get in line.
we are not, perhaps, as excited as the tokyo crowd about this (it was released there on 11/7), but we are excited nonetheless.
