Puffer jacket - an essential piece for autumn

It's freezing on the sidewalk today. Shivering on the bench, Justin and his chums wish they had brought a blanket. Afraid it would make them look too astronomic, they always avoid puffer jackets. Now it seems they are having second thoughts.



JUSTIN

Everyone is wearing a puffer jacket. No wonder they look so smug

KATE

They are just trying to keep warm. It's funny, we always say puffer jackets are hilarious. Now, they look so CUTE on these pedestrians.

KRISTEN

My Gosh, even Kylie has jumped on the bandwagon.  Like, the rest of these LEMMINGS, she has turned her back on proper jackets for this unsightly thing.  UGH!

JUSTIN

Kylie's encapsulate her amazing effort,  passion. I admire her style..She looks amazing in that puffer jacket with the fur hood, especially as she gets nearer.


KATE

All the pedestrians are looking great in their puffer jackets. I'm inspired.


KRISTEN

What the HELL! I was never keen on puffer jackets. I still feel the same way. People who wear them look hilarious.


JUSTIN

You are an amazing inspiration, Kylie. You would look even more resplesdent in that puffer jacket on TV.


KYLIE
(giggles)

Thank you. No more ORDINARY winter jackets for me then..They are the warmest jacket, EVER. Soft and it has enough room... It's well made. I got it at ZARA. Justin, check out TRUE RELIGION...The price in Zara is roughly the same as in other stores.


JUSTIN

It sounds like this is a must-have outerwear for autumn...


KRISTEN

Speak for yourself....and Kate

Philip Treacy's London Fashion Week show


JUSTIN and his sidewalk chums, Kristen and Kate were enthused about seeing the final event for London Fashion Week - Day 3: Philip Treacy's comeback collection. Hoping to reach the venue first, they cantered pass the fashion pack as they dawdled through Somerset House exit. However, the chums were winningly refused entrance by security. This is how it went down.





                         SECURITY:

May I have your INVITATIONS, please.


      KRISTEN

What?



       JUSTIN
We DON'T have invitations



       KRISTEN
This show may be at a different venue, but it's STILL a part of London Fashion Week, so we DON'T need special invites


SECURITY

I'm afraid, you do.


   KATE
(quipped)

Any ideas where we can source them?



KRISTEN

This is a FARCE! I'm out of here. Lets get out of here guy and girl


SECURITY:

Sorry


JUSTIN:

Thank you. Come on girls


KRISTEN
(curses quietly)

FKN recusants!

--------------------------------------------------------------


They waited outside the gate, hoping they could see someone who could get them in. All they could see were familiar faces from the sidewalk. Instead of staying there, looking dejected, perpetually hiding their faces, they agreed to take the long walk home. 


      KRISTEN
(halted)

I have an idea!


KATE
(laughs)

So Do I


      JUSTIN
Kate, I think she's serious.


KRISTEN

I am serious


KATE

So am I


KRISTEN

Okay, let's hear yours


KATE

I don't think we should leave. We could speak to people after the show to get their impressions about it, instead of walking home so early...


JUSTIN

I'm up for that.


KRISTEN

I'm not. It's getting cold. My feet are already tired. I have no intention of standing around for HOURS just to asked smug lemmings about the show...It will be in the Metro tomorrow.


KATE

Well, we could sit on that sidewalk bench until the show is over..there's a lot to watch on the sidewalk, so we wont be bored


KRISTEN

Security REFUSED to let us in, what if people REFUSE to talk to us about the show? I can endure no more than one refusal in a day.

JUSTIN
(show off video camera and microphone)

With these, people will be HAPPY to speak to us. Just say we are from Sidewalk TV

THUNDEROUS LAUGHTER

JUSTIN

Justin, Kate and Kristen from Sidewalk TV. What's your impression of Philip Treacy's fashion show?


Patron

Please to meet you three....Surprise surprise! Lady Gaga didn't steal the show. The HATS did. They actually UPSTAGED Lady Gaga by a mile...

KATE

Do you have to be so blunt? You should be ashamed of yourself for disrespecting the BORN THIS WAY professionally trained singer, in that fashion...

PATRON
(joked)

I have to be blunt...I was BORN this way. I know she can sing but the hats were more outrageous than her costume tonight.


JUSTIN

My parents always say 'if you don't have anything nice to say, it's best not say anything at all..


PATRON

Well, I was taught differently...Those hats got my full attention, not Lady Gaga, even though she wore eye catching Alexander McQueen laced boots...One problem with the hats; they could present a problem with my blind spot when I  drive

London Fashion Week: Day 3

BENT on out-shining the fashion pack at London fashion Week, both of WAYNE'S sidewalk chums defibrillated their efette game by sporting kaleidoscopic prints and embroidered floral. However, ever the minimalist style maven, Wayne exuded luminosity in Timberland laced boots, River Island plaid shirt and Superdry denim shorts. His chums were still on a high after winning best-dressed medals the previous night. Wayne was still sneering. In his candid opinion, winning best dressed accolade at a sidewalk bar was laughable, whereas, getting similar recognition at London Fashion Week, was something special.




The proof was in the pudding. Moments after the sidewalk chums emerged on the Courtyard Show Space at Somerset House, one of the legions of press snappers, plucked Wayne from between his chums.


PHOTOGRAPHER( to Wayne)

May I take some photographs of you

     JEREMY
NO! Get Lost!


                        APRIL
Jeremy! Don't be so rude. He looks like a celebrity photographer


PHOTOGRAPHER
Your'e very kind but I'm not a......celebrity. Just call me Nicki


APRIL
Not to worry Nicki, WAYNE is not a photographer either

WAYNE
(stepping towards photographer)

Chums! Show some DECORUM, please. They don't mean to offend you, sorry. You may take photos of me

PHOTOGRAPHER
Okay...Just pretend your'e walking...Great. Now smile....Your'e looking fabulous.



..............................................................................................



MAN: (to TV interviewer)

I'll be modelling for Vivienne Westwood Red Label

JEREMY
That's astonishing! He's dressed like a dogs' race supporter. On the other hand, we are dressed for a chic occasion...London Fashion Week baby....Awesome! This is the life...


APRIL
(dreamily)
...drinking champagne, watching designers latest creations,...


WAYNE
(smugly)
...and getting snapped by photographers....


APRIL
(mumbled)
....Speak for yourself WAYNE


London Fashion Week is sonorously, not the first fashion event the chums attended. Over the past year, they  were spotted at literally, hundreds, sorry, SEVERAL, events.

................................................

Models show off NICOLE FARHI'S Collection on the runway:

                    WAYNE
That coat is absolutely fabulous


                      APRIL
OMG! I would ABSOLUTELY wear it, amazing silhouette..


                       JEREMY
....To HELL with that. It's absolutely fallacious. There's nothing special about it.

...................................................

Vivienne Westwood Red Label Spring/Summer 2013 on the runway





                         APRIL
Hmmm. Those gloves are adorable. Got to take a picture of it


                         WAYNE
I know. Look at that dress. OMG...I adore everything we have seen so far in this collection. It's an honor to see this show..


                       JEREMY
I'm still waiting to see a killer piece. Wait!, I love those attractive stripes.

WAYNE AND APRIL
(exchanged looks, then cackled)

JEREMY
SHUT UP, You FKN lemmings! I meant, I love the stripes, but the model is attractive. UGH!


APRIL


I'd love to wear this dress in summer...Vivienne Westwood is my  designer of choice.
