hahah this is a great picture!.. never seen it before!! So does this mean that if they get smaller and smaller, year by year, at present, then (2009 ) people just don �t wear them anymore? I must say I �ve just realized I �m a fashion victim then! but 2006 are my type so far! ;o)

For Ivona, re �dark horse �:
the phrase comes from horse
racing, where a horse�s lineage and track record of wins and losses
determines the odds placed by bettors on the current race. If for some
reason the history of a certain horse is not known, the bettors are �in
the dark� as to its strengths and weaknesses, and the horse is known as �a dark horse.�
There �s another theory which is to do with darkening the colour of a horse so it could be used as a�ring in�. This is a �horse of a different colour� (or some would say �red herring�, but that�s not really equine enough) as the use of �in the dark� as a metaphor for ignorance has a longer history in Europe than formalised horse racing.
To those who aren�t �in the know� (or should that be a reference to �horse-sense�?), Barbara appears to be a very �dark horse� indeed!
