Manolo says, undoubtedly, the world it would be the much more super fantastic place if the Manolo actually did have the police powers.On another blog someone mentioned that if there are no rules on the dress code, then no one should have taken it upon themselves to make up their own ... because you can't fairly accuse someone for breaking a rule that doesn't exist.
The first law to be strenuously enforced? One must dress appropriately for the occasion.
Under no conceivable circumstance should one wear the slogan-bearing t-shirt to the Statement of the Union Speech. And, if you are silly enough to do this, you deserve to be led out in shame to the Capitol Rotunda where the gay-but-fashion-challenged Fab Five they will publicly make you over into the ridiculous metrosexual. This they should do even if you are the woman.
Trust the Manolo, wearing the political t-shirt to the formal ceremonial event, it does nothing for your cause. Indeed, the trivality of such attire, it perhaps even undermines the seriousness of your position.
P.S. By the way, the Manolo he has already addressed the issue of what is the appropriate feetwear to wear to the ceremonial events.
When I read that I thought that anyone with half a brain (and this includes the Republican chick who was tossed also for t-shirt wear) knows that you dress formally for an occasion of this importance. This is what mothers have drilled into their children's heads for time immemorial. They are called "unspoken" rules because everyone knows them.
Yeah, those brazen t-shirt wearers should have been turned away at the door instead of later, when no doubt someone with all of his or her brain spotted what was going. But let's get real. Dressing down for the State of the Union Address is bad form no matter what your message.
As the Manolo wisely points out to us.
