A Plethora of Polyester & Appalling Prints

The results are in for this year's "Ugly Thrift Store Outfit" contest.  My apologies to anyone who has duplicates of any of these items in their closet.  I will submit your name to TLC's "What Not to Wear". 
The Runway Video:


Grand Prize goes to the Dynamic Duo of Matriarch and Patriarch K:
First Runner Up goes to nephew Brenton who managed to find an '80s girls workout outfit that exposed an alarming amount of hairy leg. 
Second Runner up has to be brother-out-law Nelson in a frighteningly tight pair of polyester flood pants. 

Third Runner up is Susan in a saccharine floral ensemble that would make any Southern Junior Leaguer proud:

And some of the rest surely deserve honorable mention:





 I even managed to find my old Billy Bob teeth to complete the ensemble!  This picture does not do justice to the XXL burnt orange/mustard/olive/brown sweater knit attached vest monstrosity I found with TAGS STILL ATTACHED at the local thrift store. 

The whole crew:
Look for next year's contest:  Ugly Formal Wear
Coming to a hotel near you!
