'Real World': Please tell me overalls aren't coming back

So amid Parisa and KellyAnne fretting over Dunbar, and Isaac meeting a lovely Alicia Keys-lookalike on the streets of Sydney, the real drama on Wednesday's "Real World" was in the fashion choices.

Overalls?  Really?  Please, no.  Please, please no.

To fulfill their goal of getting their pimp on -- their term, mind you -- Cohutta and Dunbar go for a jaunt wearing overalls sans shirts.  Not surprisingly, this is the outing where Isaac, wearing a respectable-by-comparison tracksuit, meets his new ladyfriend Noirin, and Cohutta and Dunbar come up empty. (You could tell it was circling Parisa's mind to barricade them inside the house and spare them the trauma of appearing in public.)

Then, later, KellyAnne is sporting overalls over what looks like a bathing suit as she lazes about the house.  And as petite as KellyAnne is -- it's the curse of the overalls -- they make her look like a sofa.  A half-upholstered sofa, actually, given the bikini-overalls combo.

This troubles me.  Does the "Real World" have any influence anymore on fashion?  One hopes not.

Overalls are great! Who are you to judge, and so subjectively at that. Some people like them, and yes for more then just farm use or construction work. Many people find them comfortable and nice, even attractive. Try thinking of others and not for others.
