Fashion Sense and Nonsense

I've spent the last few days with my sisters on our annual Whistler B.C. vacation trip.  And this year we have had the good fortune of enjoying gorgeous sunny days in the upper 70's and low 80's.  It's been great weather for hikes around the lakes, lazy walks along the "Village Stroll" and plenty of time for people watching... always one of my favorite pastimes.

One of the most entertaining things about people-watching is the endless variety of fashion choices that are on display.  Whistler seems to draw quite the international set, which no doubt adds to some of the, shall we say, interesting choices. 

Perhaps its due to the warm weather this year, or the fact that with most folks on vacation, they go into the "What-happens-at-Whistler-stays-at-Whistler" mode, but the revealing necklines and short shorts have certainly been in abundance. Either that or the Annual Hookers Conference has been meeting this weekend.  Okay...moving on.

Sometimes when I look at the combinations of clothing that some people are wearing, I have to stop and wonder, "Did you actually look in the mirror and think 'Yes! I'm lookin' good now'?" Then again, maybe they are looking at me with those same thoughts.  

I do know that there will be a few people going home with some really interesting tan lines.  One woman was wearing a pair of long leggings with an open weave design going down the outside of her legs.  I'm sure she ended up sporting some very unique leg art by the end of the day.

It's hard to even begin to capture the plethora of fashion choices that have been paraded up and down the streets of Whistler this weekend. Let's just say that there is never a dull moment.  And the number one fashion accessory?  The camera, of course!
