Check out what I just bought! Found at Urban Planet, these are 92% nylon, 8% spandex, super-stretchy pants in four fun fluorescent colours!

I was out shopping with Lauren (previously seen here) and we came across these ridiculous things by accident. Although fascinated by their absurdity, we skimmed over them at first and then doubled back due to an idea that Lauren had. I’m usually not one to share any top-secret future plans for my photos, but since Lauren came up wth it, I’ll share it. She quickly convinced me to buy a few pairs of these, gather together enough models to fill them, and have them all pose topless (but covered) against a pure white background. It would look vaguely like something from the Gap or United Colors of Benetton.

The best part? Only $5.62 each!

Now the only thing left to decide is: four tall skinny fashion models, or four busty shorties? And how on earth will I get them all in the same place at the same time? Sometimes just getting one to show up is trouble enough.

P.S. I found Urban Planet’s FAQ hilarious. Of the ten questions listed, eight of them feature answers with the words, “we do not“, “we are not“, “we are unable“, etc. I’m sure the document serves a purpose, but it’s woefully negative in every way you can think of. It’s not very endearing, warm, positive, or containing any properties which make me say, “hey, this is a cool, fun place to shop!”. So to Urban Planet’s corporate parent, YM Inc., let me say this: less no, more yes.
