S2E8: Carla, Hawaiian Prints (Again)

Having grown up on Kauai with a hula teacher mom and ukulele-collecting dad, I am a sucker for anything Hawaiian kitsch. So imagine my pleasure when Carla pulls out yet another Hawaiian print shirt in Season 2.

8.2

It’s a given that nothing beats a vintage Hawaiian shirt. But these aren’t too shabby:

Sam’s Women: The Distraction

Season 1, Episode 21: Diane is being wined and dined by Sam’s impressive brother, Derek. After Sam mopes around, unwilling to reveal that he’s jealous, Carla gets fed up.

Carla: You know something, Sam? I used to admire you. But you know what’s happened to you ever since she got here? You’ve turned into a big weenie! You’re a dink, a wimp, a fred, a loser!

So, in the beginning of Episode 22, Sam returns from a night on the town with this stunner (to whom he says “I’m sorry I shrieked the wrong name.”). Carla is relieved that Sam has gotten back on the horse, so to speak.

Carla: Sam I’m proud of you. You took my little wimp speech to heart. It’s great to see you back in action again!
Sam: Yea, I wanna thank you for that. Took my mind of my brother and your skinny co-worker. I don’t care where they are anymore…where are they?
Carla: Well Bobby and Suzy saw them at the drive-in sharing a cherry coke and fries (rolling her eyes).

It’s a little hard to see, but the gorgeous distraction is wearing an incredible fringed sweater. Luckily, some fine brands are making uncannily similar ones today. And if you don’t want the whole sweater fringed, slap this fringe collar over any old sweater to spruce it up.
