S2E8: Carla, Bandana Print

I haven’t worn a bandana since I built a Habitat for Humanity house in high school. And since that was over a decade ago, I’m feeling pretty bad about my philanthropic side right now. But enough about volunteering for good causes, right? Let’s distract ourselves by talking about buying overpriced clothes. And later on, when said clothes arrive in the mail, perhaps the guilt will inspire you to donate to a non-profit. (Cheers to Carla: Where Everybody Knows Your Charity’s Name?) But back to the point: It would never occur to me to wear a bandana print.

But Carla wore one:

And thus, so shall we:

1. Freak of Nature Hazzard County Dress in Bandana Print. 2. Will Leather Goods Bandana Carry All Canvas Tote Bag.  3. Ecote Quilted Bandana Backpack. 4. AG Adriano Goldschmied Legging Ankle Jeans in Navy Bandana Print. 5. Keds Champion Bandana Sneakers. 6. Fred Perry for the Amy Winehouse Foundation Bandana Print Shirt. 7. River Island Osprey Bandana Print Dungaree. 8. OBEY Dazed Front Knot Cropped Top in Bandana Print.

Fittingly, #6 comes the Fred Perry for the Amy Winehouse Foundation line. The Amy Winehouse Foundation has been set up in Amy’s memory to support charitable activities in both the UK and abroad that provide help, support or care for young people in need. In continued support of The Amy Winehouse FoundationFred Perry released a fitting tribute to the singer’s iconic style; a love of ‘50s Americana is seen across leopard print polo shirts, gingham check skirts and polo dresses, with royalties and fees from the collection donated to The Amy Winehouse Foundation.

Here’s to the union of good causes and buying clothes!

Cheers,

S2E5: Sam, White Stripes

We’ve seen what Carla and Diane were wearing in Episode 5 of Season 2. Now it’s Sam’s turn.

1. Shades Of Grey By Micah Cohen Sailor Striped Crewneck Sweater.

Nearly identical. Further proof that fashion is rarely new, mostly just recycled.

Here’s to changing the minds of skeptics who think Cheers’ fashion is outdated!

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.
