And whatever it is, I can't figure an animal pattern that wouldn't be silly, so this vote would be for the whole category. <br />So I chose the ladies jumpsuit, as it is both impractical, toroughly ugly in its design, and that as a cherry on the cake (and even if I like stripes, polka dots and flowers) I find its styling atrocious!Carlottanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3259455441759015869.post-64057675045201998962009-11-16T15:18:18.845-05:002009-11-16T15:18:18.845-05:00simplicity did a whole line of pet patterns.
