Description:
Why is dress so much more than draping ourselves with the nearest piece of material we can find? And why does being dressed change us into creatures that seem so separate from the rest of nature? Being Prepared explores several ways these transformations take place and what their significance might be for our sense of being human. From Superman's costume to the hats of Edwardian women, from the role ornament plays in dress to the furs that Stone Age people are depicted wearing — these are just some of the forms of dress explored in Being Prepared.
'Carter's arguments in this stimulating book, illuminated by references to art and dress history, literature and philosophy, can be unsettling: in adorning ourselves, are we clearing away something that is obscuring our ideal condition, or are we transforming a fundamentally chaotic entity into formal perfection? With its mixture of erudition and wit, Being Prepared is a rare and hugely enjoyable treat.' — Clair Hughes, author of Dressed in Fiction
'Being Prepared is overflowing with discussions rich in a wide sweep of intellectual and literary sources, including Freud, Simmel, Carlyle and Marcuse on how we transform ourselves into immaterial states via dress and then how it can all come apart in an unravelling, both physical and conceptual. Carter remains one of the most sophisticated, witty and original writers on fashion, dress and clothing.' —T oby Slade, author of Japanese Fashion: A Cultural History

Excellent pampers
Size: Size 6, Unit Count: 50
Something I really like is that they absorb very well and help prevent leaks, even overnight. The material is soft on the baby’s skin and so far has not caused any irritation. In addition, the adhesive tabs are strong and allow for an easy adjustment, helping the diaper stay in place even when the baby moves a lot.

Best for a blow out!
Size: Size 5, Unit Count: 58
We loved pampers for months then my baby turned 7 months and started having blow outs bc he was so mobile. Huggies little movers fix that problem! Nice and thick, completely leak proof by the legs and up the back, nice and soft!

Great diapers, just a couple small issues
Size: Size 4, Unit Count: 150
Size 4 have been super reliable for my baby. They fit well, don’t sag, and handle active movement without leaking. The absorbency is great for daytime and short naps. My only minor complaint is that they can be a bit pricey compared to other brands, and occasionally the tabs feel a little stiff. Still, otherwise it’s a dependable diaper that I would definitely recommend

Reliable Fit for Bigger ToddlersI’m
Size: Size 7, Unit Count: 88
These diapers are great quality and hold up really well for active toddlers. My son has always had thicker legs, and these have suited him really well without being too tight or causing irritation. He just turned two and is already in a size 7 (almost an 8), so sizing up has definitely been helpful for comfort and better coverage for US. The absorbency is consistent, and they stay in place—overall a very dependable choice.

What a wonderful treat, loved by our very fussy dog!
Our very fussy Havanese absolutely LOVES these sticks! I had to find a new product after the USA-made chicken wrapped rawhide sticks were no longer available. It is very difficult to find a quality product made in the USA & while these are made in Cambodia, they seem to be made under very strict standards. I was also impressed that this co. claims it has never had a recall of their products. I also relied on the many, many excellent reviews of past customers. Our Teddy gets a stick every morning & then will wait by the pantry to get an additional 1 or 2 or more throughout the day! He usually does not eat the rawhide, just chews it up a bit. He is in love with these!! He also has a sensitive stomach & these have never bothered him one bit. His teeth are also quite clean from using these!
