nepotism at its finest
i ended up buying this marimekko coat. anyway, i decided to google the designer whose name is on the tag: alicia rosauer. well, it turns out that she is married to the son of the founders of crate & barrel, and they went to work for marimekko in 1999. i wonder how they got that gig? must have been the combination of hard work and luck and nothing to do with the fact that crate & barrel has been selling marimekko products for years. oh, and they are new trier high school sweethearts. gag! so this has obviously soured my purchase. i mean i like the coat, and she made a very nice design, but still...and darkpony has, unfortunately, pointed out that the pink flower on the left breast of the coat has a red center which happens to fit exactly where my nipple is. great! now, i'm completely self-concious of this. ughs!

well, it may have soured your purchase, but i am laughing at the irony.
