Meow

Posted by Robin on 12 March 2008 23 Comments

I'm not doing a Britney Spears and just putting my name on something and saying: “Sell this perfume”. This is a real passion of mine.

People think all I do is go shopping like a miserable cow, but, in actual fact, I work bloody hard.

    I feel a case of cat scratch fever coming on just from reading this.
    And you know, maybe she does work hard, but she ain't no coal miner.

    Well, I think anyone who dresses as badly as she does has to really work at it. (I know, I know…meoowww)

    Has anyone tried one of her fragrances?

    Not me but I usually skip celeb scents to keep life a little less complicated.

    Well…maybe I will when I am in the drugstore today. Meoww

    Perhaps I would have more sympathy for poor Victoria had I not already put in more than 40 hours this week at work…with strep throat and two more days to go….And no rich husband or music career in sight!

    She never smiles and that is definitely one of the reasons why I can't be bothered to read more about her, let alone try her fragrances.

    So many times we write about the bottles, the advertisements, and show our criticism towards their possible effects, but a woman like Victoria B. gives such a depressed message with her sunglasses and not-smiling, phew…I can't even bring myself to pick up one of her tester-bottles…:(
