well i personally would not want to see her in sweatpants (on stage of course...a candid photo at home would be a different story) or jeans...those people that criticize her for the way she dresses (in her trademark clothes, boots etc) annoy me....as a matter of fact, when i saw her in Boston in 1996 i took some great closeup pics of her cause i was in the front row...i showed my mom and she was like "she still wears all those drapy clothes?" and i replied "mom, she wouldn't be stevie if she didn't wear those 'drapy' clothes"

So, that's my point....the thing is (as i've said before), personally, i am really sick of seeing her in black...i think she looked great in that red outfit from the Dance era. I don't know what her thinking is. Of course, i realize she can and will do whatever she wants and it has no effect on her singing. I think the belief thats that it makes you look thinner is so drilled into her head that she's never going to stray. The funny thing is, it's not making her look like she's 100lbs....that's not a cheap shot either. We all know what her shape is...so, it's not really hiding anything.
