"Pine Valley hasn't been the same since you left."

No, Ms.Kane, it hasn't. Such delicious writing; such performances.

I miss my soap.

New Mark LaMura interview. Did he love his time on soaps? "No."

http://www.welovesoa...-interview.html

When I think about someone doing an oral history of soaps, this is the kind of interview I want to see.

Didn't know that NY&Co outfitted All My Children. I remember the days when Erica would wear Dolce and Gabbana. Talk about budget cuts.

^ That was just for a brief period. NY&Co paid a premium to essentially be a wardrobe sponsor on the show. If you look at AMC's final few years, Erica wore a lot of Dolce & Gabbana. I love D&G in particular, so I can tell you, for example, that when David proposed to "Erica" (Jane), Susan was wearing a D&G dress that retailed for several hundred dollars. If you recall the date that Jack and Erica had on a yacht circa 2010 or so (this was right around the time Brooke and Adam left together), Erica was wearing a Dolce & Gabbana red corset dress that retailed for four figures.

^ You definitely know a lot about clothes!

^ You definitely know a lot about clothes!

I know. It's embarrassing. One of my good friends went to the Fashion Institute of Technology and worked in the industry for a while, so I think that's part of it. That, and I genuinely liked a lot of what Erica wore. Susan, OTOH, is frequently a hot mess when she tries to style herself.

I LOVED that dress

.

I loved it too, but once SL got her boobs done, they were a little bit out of proportion for her very tiny body, and her breasts didn't really fit properly into a lot of the outfits they had her wearing.

Case in point:

The underwire should be all the way UNDER her boobs, not raised up with them. And if you want to get really technical, the middle of the bra portion of that top should be resting against her breastbone, not pushed out with her cleavage. The top doesn't freaking fit.

I think lingerie worn as regular apparel is a little tackée. Is that SL's own piece there, because I remember she had a whole line of lingerie that could also be worn out in public.

^ I have no clue, to be honest. There are a few designers who've done tops and dresses for women that have the lingerie look to them but are meant to be worn in public. I'm not a huge fan of the "Is that lingerie or is that a shirt" look either.
