Would you believe this is the second yard scarecrow I've spotted in the last few weeks? The first one stood guard over a well-tended patch of herbs in a ritzy Los Angeles neighborhood. And get this: it was wearing what looked like a Betsey Johnson dress. Nothing like a bad economy to give us new uses for high priced fashion. (I think it's a great idea. Frankly, some Betsey Johnson fabric prints scare ME!)I noticed this less couture scarecrow in the side yard garden of one of South Pasadena's biggest mansions. It might not make the best-dressed list, but that's okay. Home-grown vegetables are always in vogue.

I guess the economy has got even the people who live in mansions growing their own vegetables. There's some healthy looking corn, rhubarb, tomatoes, and I'm not sure what else. And I think that's a mighty fine looking scarecrow.
Love Scarecrowella's outfit!
If Betsey Johnson scares YOU, that is saying a lot. Well, at least it will keep you out of her corn.
HaHaHa!
It's been soooooooo hot and I have been in so long I didn't realize that Betsey Johnson's fabrics are right out of Grandma's quilting party. And those prices!
I;m with dbdubya, How cool that mansion dwellers are planting gardens on their lawns... and that they have the wit and humor to dress a blond scarecrow in pink!
Maybe she's waiting for Dorothy to come skipping down the path with her red sparkly shoes, free her and they can both take a quick trip down to the Santa Monica pier and ride the carousel.
In So Pasa I hear they call these, Scarephotogs.
The link is terrifying.
I think it's adorable. And look at her corn! I'm envious.
I rather liked that Betsey Johnson dress myself. Am I weird?
Judy, you must take a quick look at the pink link to get the full impact. I'm all for skipping to the Santa Monica pier. That carousel is one of my favorite things.
I took a closer look at the Betsy Johnson dress on the pink link.
If the lower ruffle were black instead of yellow, it would look like something I would wear. At least when I'm not in all black.
We both must be weird, Judy.
Aren't there some neighborhood association rules against scare crows? Or just what they wear?
I liked Betsey Johnson in the 80s. I also liked big bangs, spandex bike shorts and earrings that looked like hubcaps!
Nothing like a good scarecrow to keep one company while gardening.
Thanks, everyone! Until tomorrow...
Too adorable. I wonder if scarecrows really work?
Cute Cute Cute!!! I haven't seen a scarecrow in ages, but this is definately the cutest :)
