Betsey, Betsey, Betsey. You just don't stop do you?? She is completely mad!! I mean, look at her. How can you not love some one THAT crazy. Its fabulous! After I decided to write about her, I thought.... well I love her clothes, and love love her handbags and jewelry. But I would only be able to say the cliched FIERCE! to her shoes. they are loopy! I mean, from platform, to rainbow, to just random bits of fluff. She ALWAYS delivers. There is something about her designs that is just, so fanciful and creative. Its like she still has that state of mind that, and I mean this with the utmost respect, a three-year-old has. At that age they just kind of think, hmmm. I want rainbows and ribbons, and lace, and polka-dots, and fairies, and unicorns, and butterflies, and sugar and spice, and everything nice. oh wait, that's the Power Puff Girls. You know what I mean! Its just so... Whimsical. That's the word. Well, since I'm on a bit of a roll I'll do the Project Runway (EEK!) after dinner! Well thanks for watching and until next time, this is Hannah, signing off!

Yours, Nuttily

Hannah
