Plus, she let me wear my chain and my turtleneck sweater!

Ruby and Paige have changed my views on turtle necks, above and below the neckline.

Ok but…

Is there supposed to be a new show every month? Agree with another review a little more planning could be put forth. Paige and Ruby have other redeeming qualities though. Little more effort and this is 5 stars.
