Dream Sequins

“Sequenced”? So does that mean she put the sequins on in a very precise order which she repeated several times? Or did she just fall asleep on the piano and dream of a unicorn in a misty forest?

    I am most concerned. The extra pictures seem to be of the model having some sort of allergic reaction to the hat, and suffering a seizure. Quick, get the adrenaline pen!

    If it means she cracked the gene code for it, I sorry, she has to go, before this hat reproduces. Simi Valley though, you’d be back in time for Leno Helen. I think.

    Aside from the obvious lack of literacy, this person is also clearly afflicted by Meitis. In other words, thephotos have basically nothing to do with the ITEM being sold and are all about “me me me me”. “Look how ironically I can bend my arms and purse my lips! Oh yeah, and I’m selling a hat. Look how cute (yes!) I am!”.

    Or maybe it would be better suited on Lady Gaga. Either way, at least the seller’s humble enough to only charge $20.

    Poor grammar and spelling really get my butt necklace in a twist. A sweetheart may love the hat, but English teachers everywhere are cringing at this description.

    Let’s try:
    This all-American teardrop hat features bold colors. A blue sequined wing rests on top of soft white netting. Four bronze star buttons dot the front, tying the piece together. This delicate hat would be the perfect gift for that special patriotic sweetheart!

    Apart from the fact that the seller’s completely illiterate, I think the hat’s rather cute. It could definitely work for a Rosie the Riveter or vintage kind of look. I’d probably wear it – but I’d never buy a hat from someone who couldn’t spell “sequined”!

    I don’t get it. If people are so bad with spelling, why not spell-check? Firefox has a lovely spell-check feature. Although it doesn’t help with “born and bread” (see bio), or “sequins” vs. “sequence”. That requires common sense (since?:O).

    At first one simply thinks it’s a common-or-garden sequenced yarmulke — the last photo reveals it in all its ghastly splendour and one finally realizes why it’s described as having been “hand cut and molded from a children’s disney record”.
