Mannequin Morsels

Do you ever get in the mood to walk?  I sure do, and even more so when cooler weather sets in.  I'm not talking about shopping although I've been known to buy a few things along the way but mostly I'm referring to walking around and observing it all just for fun. 

That said, I had a hankering to roam last week. After all, with colorful Christmas decorations (which I love) starting to pop up, it left me no choice but to get out and about so I headed to Stonebriar Mall in Frisco. The mall and retail area behind it are my favorite places to do some festive strolling.

First, I was disappointed to find that Macy's was still "Believing" AGAIN this year. This year's store entrance looks exactly the same as it did last year.  

Ho-Hum.  
You're Macy's!
Isn't it time for new decorations?
Please move on. 



Of course, my affinity for mannequins kicked in. 
I don't know why but these Dillard's triplets 
look as if they're in a HUGE HURRY!

 Perhaps they're moving 
to another department? 
Wouldn't that be a major event in 
the sedentary life of a mannequin?

Maybe they're meeting up with these guys.
Just exactly what are they in line for?
Definitely not a haircut.

Here's a couple of hot pink babes in Betsyville.
Not necessarily entertaining but 
I love their bold hue.

I'm guessing all that heavy jewelry made it 
difficult for her to hold her head up (or on).

Just this morning I woke up thinking that I wanted my fashionable neckwear to be a couple of dish cloths, a gravy boat, a baster, and a spatula. To further accessorize, I knew that a basket belt containing artichokes, carrots, an oven mitt and more would be the perfect thing to get me through the day!

The above pic is a great example of using the accessory wall thoughtfully!  If you don't watch Project Runway--mentor, Tim Gunn, always tells the designers to "use the Belk accessory wall thoughtfully" or Bluefly.com accessory wall or whichever company is the wall sponsor that season.  

Just once I'd like to hear, 
"Please use the Kitchen Collection 
accessory wall thoughtfully!"  
Oh, and can you imagine the runway show?  

You know, it might actually work for one of the show's unconventionral challenges. 

Her business is showing too.
There's a good chance that this 
designer will be told that she's out.

Speaking of showing your business, 
this next morsel is absolutely true!
In December 2012, I took this photo in JC Penney.
The lingerie department to be exact.
The blog post is here.
A bald babe with an exposed shiny hiney.
Yes, it's spelled "heinie." 
I know because I looked it up 
but I like my spelling better.

Last week, curiosity sent me back to the same
spot to see what "hiney girl" was up to these days.
This is exactly what I found!
NO LIE!
I am telling the truth here!
 Obviously, there's a new gal in town--headless and footless with a matte finish. Nevertheless, she must have read my blog post about her predecessor because she's protecting her business.

On that note, I shall depart.  

Have a Mumbo Jumbo Day Folks,
