Happy Birthday Debbie Harry . . . Hard to believe my 80's punk rock idol - the lead singer of Blondie turned 67 today in Miami. Where has the time gone . .

Lucy saw me post this and said ... A. "Who is Blondie" and B. I love the neon green! Ok, she needs a lesson on real music, and neon . . hum. Not exactly my favorite, but she loves it. Would paint her room that color if I let her, and that's a big, fat no. Her neon green socks and neon green disc (for disc golf - a new "thing" around this house) is about all the neon I can handle.
So neon made its re-appearance from the 80's last year, briefly. It appeared on the runways - Michael Kors - as far as I can remember - but he does most everything well, neon included.
A little goes a . . . l - o - n - g . . . way. Here's my opinion on neon. Small dollops . . . maybe a small purse, or keds.

Ok, really good. I think I actually had a neon yellow bathing suit in the 80's, but don't remember it looking like this.

There isn't much he can't make glamorous . . .
