After stressful week (well, it's almost over, isn't it? tell me it is!), 5 of my co-workers and I went for beers at the pub down the street. I had a lovely chocolate porter, and now I'm all flushed.
My cheeks are hot, but this outfit is not. Meh, just not feeling it. I felt good in it all day, but the pieces individually did just not add up to a whole for me. I was tugging at the vest all day, the jeans bagged out in the bum and the knees, black knee highs were a bad idea (but my alternative was barefoot)...I'm not going to go on.
Oh, wait, there's crotch-pooch:
Meanwhile, the cats circle like sharks:
The stuff:
No stuff other than shoes (which are good, but not with this outfit), and some silver hoop earrings.
But tomorrow's Friday - hurray! And it's almost Festivus!
Jacket (Gap, consignment), blouse (Mexx), vest (Esprit), jeans (Parasuco, thrifted), shoes (Qupid, consignment), silver hoop earrings (gift from L).
I DO love those shoes. I feel you on the pants bunching issue: I never know how to wear pants, leggings excluded, being that they are basically tights. I do like the blue with the cream in this outfit, though. And did I mention the shoes?
ReplyDeleteAlso, your cats are rockin'!
Hawt shoes! But I know how it is to just not feel...right.
ReplyDeleteI know that feeling... you want to go home and burn the clothes....
ReplyDelete*drool* I love those shoes! I hate when pants do the saggy bum thing. So annoying!
ReplyDeleteI really like the shoes!!!
ReplyDeleteI love the last outfit pic - all the pieces seem to coome together there.
ReplyDeleteJulia, yeah, they're great shoes. Oh well, they can't all be winners!
ReplyDeleteWendy, thanks - good to know I'm not alone.
Lorena, well, not that bad, but yes!
Thanks, K! Yes, that's the worst!
Thanks, Jan-nini!
Jane, thank you.
Wow, I'm sorry you didn't love that outfit, but I did. The top pieces especially, the teals and prints are fantastic; I'm not nervy enough to wear cream pants but I am excited when I see other people are!
ReplyDeleteAw, thanks, Kristen! I think it's the jeans that need to go.
