Nice truck stop


Though this shirt makes me look a little lumpen, oh who are we kidding, FAT, I do like the juxtaposition of the casual rolled cargo pants with studded gladiator heels
Free people pants, Sam Edelman shoes, F 21 shirt

Tiki car!!!!




The last time I went to the Art Car parade, a girl dropped a beer on my foot. Since she was coming out of a black school bus with a flame thrower on top, I kept it to myself that these were new shoes and it was 10 am
Juicy Couture shorts, J Crew tee, Versace glasses, Skye hangover

Got Up Late

Black is a really great thing in clothing. It is slimming, it disguises pet hair if you have a basement cat and it matches everything. BUT. Oh you knew there had to be a but, right? The fade factor is abysmal. And, of course, the more you like it, the more you wear it until the Best Ever Jil Sander tissue weight tee is nothing but a sad grey pilled thing. My mother used to dye her faded black stuff but I took one look at the RIT dye package and had visions of having dark blue hands for 3 weeks. So now I just throw it away. Or never wash it. which is worse? You decide

Pass this GO


Sadly, I just cannot get behind the Tracy Feith line, the lastest designr for GO Target. The bustier babydoll dress with thre big zipper is kind of appealing but the hippie stuff not so much. And those bloomer shorts? The. Worst. Ever.
Speaking of bad clothing, I am strangly attracted to those cropped harem pants. Maybe it is some longing for the nights at IU spent at Hooligans with resident DJ Shawn D dropping some Hammertime but I suspect it is becasue they are weird but comfortable looking. H&M have some in their store signage but alas, none to be found in house

I am taking a memo

Milly is a line that is known for vintage inspired and colorful clothing. This 40's style dress has a great flared hem and a vague pattern that could be leopard or ribbons. Next time I will switch out the belt

Just because you can does not mean you should

Just because: you are an accidental size 2. Just because: all of your belonging are scattered between 4 states, 3 houses and 2 cars. Just because: you thought you grabbed your J Crew tunic length fitted tee from last year but instead it grabbed your bebe baby tee from 2002. DOES NOT MAKE IT OK TO WEAR A BELLY SHIRT
I am so ashamed
