Debbie Phelps Is Having A Chico's Kind Of Day
I am so fucking giddy because I get to post about Chico's! "A Chico's kind of day" is one of my favorite phrases ever! Every now and again when someone asks me how I'm doing, I'll sigh, close my eyes and softly say, "I'm having a Chico's kind of day." I have no idea what that means, but it's comforting. I think it means that you're having hot flashes and craving fabrics that look like they were inspired by wallpaper remnants from the clearance bin. Or it just means that you're trying to hide gut over bagina.
Before leaving for Beijing, Debbie Phelps headed on down to Chico's and bought her entire Olympics wardrobe. She told The Pittsburgh Gazette, "I knew I was going to need to be prepared for a variety of events, activities and climates, so I picked key pieces that I could mix and match, dress up and dress down." The store noticed that Debbie wore their old lady shit to almost every Olympic event so they posted a picture of Debbie on their website alongside all the crap she wore.
The store is now talking to Debbie's "management" about working with her. A spokesbitch for Chico's said, "We think she looks amazing. We think she really resonates with women everywhere." Wait. Hold up. Rewind. Debbie has management?! And it starts..... Expect a line of Debbie Phelps boxed wine, Debbie Phelps menopausal pads and Debbie Phelps thongs. I can't wait.
So, let me ask you something. What kind of day are you having? If you don't say, "A Chico's kind of day," then you better turn around and go take a shit.

Ugh, I thought all of her outfits were hideous. I guess it's no surprise they were from Chico's.
That store is just nast. I mean I know it's hard for older women to find clothes but Chico's is like old ladies dressing for a trip to south america or something. Just really nasty, odd clothes. We have one here (not in a mall, we have those drive-up-to stores here in Texas, so maybe that also hurts it) and I really don't know how it stays in business, no one ever goes into it. Old ladies would rather shop next door at Talbots or Ann Taylor.

There are chico's in New York.... however, most of them exist in the big mall some New Jersey people call Paramus.

I heard Debbie Deb's replacing Sarah Chalke in those Hanes panties ads -- for those panties that ride up into your crack.
I'm having a Hot Topic kind of day. :P

Agree with you Applehead. She doesn't look offensive to me, considering she's an older lady and a principal of a middle school to boot. Fits the profile perfectly--like all of my school teachers. You really can't expect her to wear Versace or Stella McCartney, right?
P.S. Add Boston Proper to the old lady catalog list. And I have to nominate Talbots too. Blech!
Well, if nothing else, it's refreshing to see a mother dress like a mother should (take not Pam Anderson and Shauna Sand)
So they're telling me that Debbie Phelps wears those belly-chain-esque chain belts they have on the last page of her 'collection'?
Um.
LOL Mrs. K. that's what I thought.

She is my favorite. I love her. I saw her profile on milllionaire personals site""""C e l e b C u p i d.c o m""""""" yesterday. It is said she is in relationship with a young handsome guy on that site now. Is she single again?

My ma' loves Chico's lol
... because I've been wondering where an old woman who has nothing to do with anything buys her clothes...

I found an article where it said she is in her mid 50's.

Maybe she's pulling a Vadge and paid people to say she was younger. Because if this lady is ~55, then I am ~102.
@snowpiece: Shit, sorry... rofl. *lurks away* Whoever said Coldwater Creek is right too, haha. Ohhhh, moms. <3

Coldwater Creek! haha. Last year for my birthday (22) my thoughtful but out of touch aunt gave me a gift card to C-dub Creek. They do have some nice jewelry!

Ever so often my mom (age 65) will call me from her cell phone with: "I'm at Chico's and I found this black jacket, would you-" and I cut her off immediately with "NO."

LMAO. I feel your pain... only for me it's Ann Taylor Loft. My mom will call and say, "Hi Laura, I'm at Ann Tay-" And I will say "No fanks" and hang up. Though I have to give her credit - she once bought me a really cute dress there. Oh and a tank top. So kudos to her.

Debbie Phelps looks like she could easily be Michael's grandma, not mother. I wonder how old she is.
I get a kick out of her Liz Taylor hairdo and make-up.
"This ain't rock n roll. This is genocide!"
Anyone know how old she is? I'll admit I have been in a couple Chico's stores, but quite a few years ago. Never bought anything tho.

OMG!!that is one of the funniest things i've read!LOL!thank you for making me spit out my coffee first thing this morning!:)
(sigh) my mom gets a Chico's catalogue in the mail all the time...i looked at it once and all of their clothes are either bright tropical colors, animal print or some sort of pattern. my mom's always asking me if she should order something from there and i'm always telling her to just stick with the silver jewlery.

A lot of women I work with shop at Chicos- they are also 20 years older than I am...
I just think it costs a lot of money for them to look that tacky.
where is michael phelps' daddy?
I keep reading the advertisment over and over and all my inner voice will yell is "Condoms. CONDOMS!!!" Is it the "packed gold medal" thing? Am I thinking of the gold foil wrapped coins? Weirdness...

The Chico's television commercials could easily be confused with a Massengil commercial.
Chicos also operates under the name White House Black Market. That's where Michelle Obama shops, according to THE VIEW. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to have a Metamucil cocktail and settle into a sitz bath.
I don't know why ANYONE wouldn't buy this!
Hahahaha!
-------------------------------------------------
Whenever you feel fat, just look at one of your pinkies. I love my pinkies. - MK, duh.
Huh?
y tu mama tambien!
I've never been to Chico's, and now I know why. Ugly clothes at inflated prices. I'll stick with Target and Old Navy!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Yur sketti...I will haz it.
hahaha stock :D
Chico's is still in business?? You always wonder who the hell shops at those places...
