I am no fashionista but I imagined there would be a post-inauguration buzz about the jewel-toned designer outfits worn by Jill Biden, Kamala Harris, and Michelle Obama, complete with the elegant, dyed-to-match leather gloves. I wasn’t ready, however, for the hundreds of memes across social media of Bernie Sanders and his large Vermont-created mittens. Because I live here. And if I don’t own a pair exactly like his, I have a box in the mudroom (another New England-specific invention) full of near look-alikes. I bet you do too.
Aren't there quite a few small businesses locally that make mittens like Bernie’s? Could we get them some publicity so they can take advantage of the sudden interest in warm mittens?
Susan, I almost gagged as I watched Lady Gaga struggle down the steps of the Capitol in her designer gown. Same reaction to J.Lo's BLING. There's a reason we prefer Bernie's down home look.
