Fashion Blog #2- Swine Flu

I was surfing the web and I came across pictures of face masks for the swine flu! Designer mask with phrases like Oink! on them! This is NUTS! I think its crazy how people can make a fashion statement out of just about anything including a scary flu epidemic! I cant decide if I think the mask make a mockery of our current health crisis or if they are actually thinking that this trend will take off. If I was having to wear a mask I certainly wouldn't be worried about how I, looked I would be worried about not getting what the mask is supposed to protect me from. But then again if I was a true fashionista then maybe I would considers these masks the new best thing!
