The purple mountain majesty of North Dakota.

Did you know North Dakota had mountains?

I was as surprised as you. Buttes, yes. Mountains, no.

It's standard issue, of course, to use North Dakota as the place where everything forsaken occurs. In this case, Karl Lagerfeld's bad design can be blamed on The State They Love To Hate.

After I did a lovely write up on the gorgeous Fendi bags that do exist, I feel totally let-down by this hideous number. I'm going to take a stab at what happened here. Karl Lagerfeld spent this past winter in North Dakota in the mountains and never once had human interaction.

Yes, there are no people here. At all. It's an empty state. This blog does not exist. The writer of the blog I've quoted, a blog which talks about women's purses, has grasped it fully.

But I've already covered this kind of metaphorical laziness on this blog, so we'll leave it at that.

Buttes, people, buttes.

In Oklahoma, we have the "World's tallest hill". Yep, one foot shorter than the 2000 feet required to be called a mountain. Cavanal Hill in Poteau, OK.

Yes. Really.

(Makes me want to take 13 inches of dirt up there and make the "World's shortest mountain)

I spent a mere four days in North Dakota — one in Williston, one in Jamestown, two in Fargo, plus transit as needed — and I never once thought I was lacking in "human interaction".

Didn't see a single mountain, though.
