Starting off the week with some “shopping slang”

Jump to Comments

Today was the first day I used my Shopaholic’s Daily (desk) Calendar 2009. I have honestly never heard the term ‘fashion biscuit’ used in daily conversation, but perhaps one day I’ll need to use it. *Highly doubtful, I know!*

Fashion biscuit, n.

  1. Someone who has exceptional fashion sense and usually knows what looks good on anyone.
  2. Someone who looks good in clothes that usually look unattractive on other people.

     – urbandictionary.com

By using the above definition, would Carrie Bradshaw be classified as a ‘fashion biscuit’ then?

  • She’s a fashion biscuit in SATC, but not in real life. Sorry, I know you like her a lot, but she looks a lot better on TV than she does in celebrity magazines.

  • Mel – I hear what you are saying but I do not agree. Yes, sometimes she is relaxed and wears jeans and a t-shirt with Converse, but she is a mom and can’t be expected to look the fashionista role every minute of the day.

    Look at this link below. This is SJP at an event – not in character as Carrie B. – and she still looks awesome!

  • Ok, you have a good point. Sometimes it just seems like her face is melting…Don’t get me wrong though, I LOVE her in SATC.

  • Comment not on fashion at all because we all know I need to go on what not to wear for some work clothes help….but Tell Jen to answer her phone and call plus this comment is 3 days old and so unlike her!

  • Beth – I know, I am horrid! This week has been absolutely insane. Too many days with LONG hours in the office, and the last thing I want to do when I get home late is stare at ANOTHER computer.

    I need to write another “embarrassing Jen moment” post. Have any ideas about something from my past?

    BTW, I did get your message. The man you were speaking about is Bruce, right? He is fantastic…I always loved when he would come to SHIFT for an in-person meeting with his team. Send him my best, please!

  • Mel- Thanks for seeing my side. Agreed, her face does sometimes look a little melty. ;)

  • Hey Jen!

    Thanks for the shout and the comments! Hope you visit in the future!

    A fellow champagner on a beer budget (love that) and resident fashion biscuit,
