My Fashion Emergency

Wednesday, June 20, 2007

OK, so I think Mom failed to distribute the memo to all my friends and family. Oh, and what memo am I talking about? Well, the one that says...
Please refrain from purchasing, making or otherwise procuring any kind of clothes for Ruby. She likes to be naked, au natural. She doesn't like to wear clothes. Save your money or if you insist on buying her something a snack, toy or collar would be acceptable.

Thank You, Management.
Now how hard is that to understand? Not hard at all. My Mom promised me that she would never make me wear clothes. In fact she has even refrained from knitting me something (and she loves to knit - that is when I let her). OK, you've seen me in a coat and a rain jacket...well I get cold in the winter and I hate to be wet so I suffer through that. So why am I bringing this up now of all times? Well, in the course of a week I got 2 outfits from individuals who shall remain nameless. Don't get me wrong, I really appreciate it and they are pretty (really they are)...I just DON'T LIKE WEARING CLOTHES!!!

OK, here is the first offender...a 'pleather', fur trimmed coat.
Doesn't it look like I have little CoCo Nut around my neck?

Do I look happy about this??? Plus it's like 7 zillion-million-trillion degrees out!

OK, so it is kinda cute and I do look good in it. Hmmm, maybe I'll wear this one...you know, in the winter, when it's cold.

And here is the second offender...Marilyn Monroe-like, silky dress
So I don't even think Mom knew which way this should be put on!

Here's what I think of you dress!!!

OK, I'm better now...just had to get this off my chest...hey Tanner, there's my little secret...I HATE CLOTHES!!!

Note from Ruby's Mom:
Hi Everydoggie and Girl Girl...Ruby is a very lucky girl to have so many people who love her, think she is cute and want to buy her things. But no matter how many snacks or diversions she just won't go for wearing anything but the fur God gave her. She barks and whines and just runs and hides whenever I try this. Please don't think her ungrateful by any stretch of the word...she just knows what she likes and doesn't like! Oh, and it's only 97 degrees today...please excuse Little Miss Drama Queen. (Ruby: Mom - I AM NOT A DRAMA QUEEN!!!)

Toby said... 12:59 AM

OMD, the marilyn dress is SO funny!! I was secretly hoping you would have put it on for a snapshot...but I guess not.

The jacket looks very nice on you. Yes, I know you hate clothes. (I hate clothes too). But Mom doesn't seem to "get" it like how your mom "gets" it. Maybe you should get your mom to talk to mine. I think mine is not too bright.

Um, did you end up eating the dress?

I personally think you look very sophisticated in your stylish leather coat! I wish you would have modeled the dress for us but I totally understand about just not feeling right in it!

Love ya lots,
Maggie

Amber-Mae said... 3:48 AM

Wow, you got to wear fur??? That's cool but I'd probably attack it & pull out all the fur if it was on me coz it looks like a kitty cat to me, heeeheee... Evil me! You look good in it by the way & I pitty you coz you had to wear it on a hot day. Tsk-tsk-tsk, hoomans!

Love licks,

I'd never seen any dogs wearing clothes until I started blogging.

Dogs round here are lucky if they get a collar.

Stick to your guns Ruby.

I'm with you Ruby. I !!!HATE!!! wearing clothes too. I just lay down & refuse to move.

But I'm old, furry & a big boned. I don't need anything else to keep me warm.

I hear you, I ONLY like to wear two jackets. One is my hoodie and the other is made to fit my handsome frenchie body. hee hee

It;s better to run around naked! Humans are jealous they can't do that.

Billy (YES Casanova!!!) said... 7:37 AM

I liked that little coat on you, but personally, I don't like wearing things but mom insists that I'm cold in the winter when we go for our walks and the DREADED sweaters come out!! I did do a blog on this and I told every one how I felt about this...

But mom still looks at clothes for me when she's out shopping...what does SHE not get??

BIG hugs from Billy Boo:)

Gwyn Valentine said... 7:47 AM

Well, i have to admit you look really chic in the jacket. I hope that is not real fur though...
I've got two tank tops. Sometimes to amuse my friends, sometimes to keep me warm in the airconditioned room.
Love,
Reina

OH MY GOSH YOU ARE WEARING MY COUSIN!!!!! HOW DID SHE END UP DEAD AROUND YOUR NECK?!?!?!?!?!

Tadpole said... 8:46 AM

I hate to say it Ruby, but you look really good in that jacket.... The last picture of you wearing it is another Hepburn-esque photo!

That wedding dress, on the other hand, hmmm.... I personally would have chewed it up too.

wally said... 8:53 AM

I understand your feelings. With a coat that beautiful (ie, your NATURAL coat) why would you want to cover it up? I'm ok with t-shirts but THAT'S IT. My sissy is a no-go on the clothing front. I think the apes just want to make us like them. I don't know WHY given our vast superiority.

Duke and Gidget said... 9:56 AM

Yeah, we hate clothes too, but sometimes you gotta make some scrifices to keep the ones who feed us happy. But you do look very pretty in your coat.

Hello Ruby,

Gee whiz, we never spoke with a Boston Terrier before but you are definitely a cutie.

We always wear harnesses (our day-to-day "clothes" and sometimes have to wear bandanas and hats. Also, Mom bought us yellow slickers for the rainy season -- but other than that we like to go au natural!!!

Thanks for stopping by!!

Ruby, I am on your side on the clothing thing, but I think Teka kind of likes stuff like that. Thanks for dropping by my blog. I will be a regular!

Anonymous said... 11:30 AM

Oh Ruby... I am right there with you sister... I like to be the way god intended - NO clothes, just my double coat of fur!!! I loved the not so happy face you made in the pictures of the fur jacket!
Hugs,
Sitka

I knew one of the Bostons would eventually get little Coco!!!

(hee hee!)

Peanut said... 12:47 PM

That coat will work well this fall what with the fur trim and all. Hmm I think the dress would have looked nice on you but what can you do if you don't want to wear it.

Unknown said... 12:54 PM

The only thing I like on you is Chanel No. 5 and red nail polish.

Au naturale, Baby.

Lorenza said... 2:55 PM

Hi, Ruby.
Seems like I am the only one who like clothes! I start thinking that I am the weird one of the DWB!
Maybe you don't like it, but you have to admit that you look gorgeous with that jacket!

Well I have to bark that I 100% agree with you Ruby...clothes are not for me either, though I have been known to sport a hat once in while..hehe

Luckie Girl said... 6:36 PM

Hey Ruby,
I feel for you cos I don't really "get" what's up with clothes too. I just bear with them but most of the time, I try to bite them off. I actually did suceed in removing a t shirt on my own!
PS : That said and done, I think you look great in that fur trimmed coat.

Jackson's J1 and J2 said... 12:17 PM

Hey Ruby, you don't need clothes cos you look supercute without them! J x
