Wow. This Huckabee family Christmas card inspires so many thoughts …

I’ll leave it with: Vertical stripes are slimming, but not magical. My eyes hurt. And elbow patches on shirtsleeves? C’mon — don’t pretend you’re “jes’ folks” and Mrs. Huckabee is a darner/mender. You live in a mansion with columns and pilasters.And as Andrew Sullivan says: “Could you please stop strangling the dog?”

WHAT SAM WORE: 1/4/08
The sweater: Long-sleeved lightweight cotton V-neck by Kenneth Cole
(Last Chance … and a serious mistake on a 75-degree day)
The pants: Wool/nylon/spandex-blend trousers by Banana Republic
(surprisingly cool, considering the above)
The shoes: Snakeskin loafers by Taxto (Last Chance, circa 2004)
The scent: Keeping with the “black” theme, Encre Noire by Lalique
(
read more about it in my Great Stuff column this week)
