Here's a snip of the image.. it's for sale so it's watermarked.. but I just want to post it so you can see the outfits and then we'll all just forget about this image shall we?! tee hee....
What in the name of all things holy is she wearing?!!! The Pink PJ outfit was bad but....but....but.....oh my word....am speechless. I know the 80's was kinda the decade that fashion forgot but that outfit is just cruel and unusual punishment!

Ezibuy and parachute skirts are both heinous abominations of which we shall speak of no more. (Although I suspect we haven't seen the last of the parachutes skirts in JWWM.)
Did anyone notice that this skirt comes from Next (sold by Ezibuy) which is a UK company. Which I buy a lot of clothes from online. I'm wearing a Next top as I type. What does this say about my style?...(or lack thereof). Does Next do this skirt in black ? My mum had a wardrobe full of parachute skirts in the 80s (and probably the 90s too). I think it's the horror pattern combined with the pastel colours that makes the parachute skirt truly appalling.

...KJ had an early morning and didn't bother to change out of her PJs? (just spent the 2 hours available on her hair and make-up )

In the fun searching of KJ fashions.. I've been taken by surprise by the famous heart necklace! (and yes.. here is that ghastly pink pyjama nonsemble again!)
I knew KJ had worn it in other roles after smk.. I had seen it in her movie 'A mother's testimony' here:
I can't say I liked seeing her still wearing it. What do you think? I was preferring to see it as tied to the Amanda King character. And I keep the character and the true life person very separate.. and I would have guessed actors would prefer to keep some boundaries in place when portraying characters on screen.. but.. seems KJ does not see sharing fashions/jewellery as a boundary issue. Each to their own!
I was surprised when checking out Getty Images, to find that KJ had worn the heart necklace long before SMK and Amanda King! this was news to me!!
Here's a link to the getty images page (there's a few of this appearance) - no theft intended! Where you can see this image (watermarked because it's for sale)
Right where it says 'By' - you can see the heart shaped necklace! this is from Saturday Night Live in 1979..
Apparently you can even watch KJ's appearance spoofing Charlie's Angels (oh that must have felt good to her!).. Here's the link
I can't watch it though because I am not in the United States. booooooooo!!
I have a few other images of KJ wearing the heart necklace.. but I'll post them later and save bombarding you all with everything at once! bye!

One other outfit I found..
Is this outfit:
I took a snip of it in a youtube clip- she is wearing it on the Joan Rivers show in October 1984 KJ says the day is her birthday - and that she had been on set all day that day - so she was 'goofy' - is this evidence she did come straight from being on set?? I wonder if Joan Rivers was filmed on the Warner Bros lot.. anyone? (if you watch the vid, you'll see she also has on one of those parachute skirts!)
Anyway.. this outfit looks really familiar.. but given I haven't seen beyond Utopia Now in a long time - I can't say what ep it is from.. and I'm not going to go hunting - I'll leave this one to you lovely people to figure out!
See the Joan Rivers Interview HERE.
Bye!!

And didn't she wear this one to the Emmy's one year, complete with the flower in her hair? I wouldn't have thought that the sweaters and shirts would necessarily be KJ's style... I always just assumed that it was for show publicity--connect the fans with the show, type of thing... There's also the possibility that some of the interviews were actually during a workday and they were taking a break. I can't see BB's outfits clearly enough to see whether they're from the show--but I know that Lee wasn't wearing a grey jacket and striped shirt when Amanda was wearing the stripey jersey in JEG (he was wearing a red and blue tartan shirt and his dark blue jacket with the gold collar edging)... shrugI know I've seen another interview with her somewhere where she's actually on the SMK set, sitting in one of those tall director's chairs, wearing that same stripey jersey. Can't remember where I saw it, though. that's what I thought, but one interview if from 1985 and the other is from 1986, JEG was aired I think in 1986 ? or late 1985 And I don't think it could be on a break while on working day, they are not on the SMK set Here is the link of the 1985 Emmy's award where she wears that dress (and flower) Hiya!
Thanks for sharing that link Ralx.. (Merci beaucoup right?) I just realised today that this video of BB and KJ presenting at the Emmy's is from 1984 - not 1985 as it is labelled on youtube.
The Emmy's were held 23 sept 1984- given KJ is wearing Amanda's outfit from The Three faces of Emily here - how does that fit with the airing/filming now??
I don't have time to look - have used all my smk time for today and actually have a class to go to haaaa!
I love this fashion detective work - v fun!!! and I must say.. having googled awards show images from the 80s I'm feeling better and better about what KJ is wearing! hhaaaaa..
I have found another episode/real life appearance but I'll save it for another day. byeeeee!

When you're feeling horrified by the fashion disaster that was the 80's - look how much worse the 70s were...

So, if the heart necklace was hers, and she had it in her possession before SMK, then what is the significance of when it appeared? Why did she choose to make it a part of Amanda King at that point in the story. What about the solitaire pendant?
Did other actresses blur the lines between the clothes of the character they played and their off sage selnes like KJ did at that time?

Glad you enjoy the topic iwsod, merci beaucoup is right concerning the necklace, she bought it for the Saturday Night Live, she wanted something that sparkle with the light because she was dressed in black, that's what she says here :

I find it a bit strange.. I've found a few other mixing moments.. I'll post them eventually if no one else does..
