Earlier this week, as we were hurriedly walking up to our favorite donut shop (at the SW corner of Robertson Blvd. and Venice Blvd.) a guy walked by and said to us, "Ugly Betty??" It was the little cherry on the sundae of life this week has been. This designer is one of our peoples. She even hails from exactly the same place as my family. She is a major, major designer. But there is something very Charlotte Russe about this dress.
