I opened up one of several catalog advertisements that were going to be tossed to give myself a mental break. Imagine my surprise when I discovered that I was wearing what one of the models was wearing!
All I need to get is a fancy off the shoulder peasant top and some gold flip flops and this could be me. No joke, the pants I am wearing (that really are pajama pants) are exactly like this: black ikat and I love them. I can't tell you how many times I have worn them to drop the kids off at school, and some days to pick up too!
I have heard that all you need to pull of any look is confidence. I don't know that I could wear the same pants I slept in around town with the confidence necessary to rock it. But maybe, since I am moving anyway, I will give it a try. Lipstick and some big sunglasses should help!
Maybe pajama pants are the new yoga pants? This could be the first trend that I participated in while it was still trendy. I am usually a good 5 years late. In fact, this past weekend I bought my first Maxi dress. Still haven't worn it, but I bought it. That's a start.
Running shorts! That's my favorite. Looks like you're just running errands on the way to the gym ;)
ReplyDeleteLets start that trend Chrissie! Running shorts with a Student Council 2001 logo is the next weekday wear :)
DeleteIf I had legs that would tan in the summer I would wear running shorts. But these babies need to be covered!
DeleteI'm so disappointed, Jane!!! I thought I was going to see a picture of you (or at least your bottom half) modeling the bottoms in that same pose!!! LOL!
ReplyDeleteI can't do maxi dresses... they just look like moo moos on my body type... bleh!
I thought long and hard about a self portrait from the waist down in the same pose, maybe I will do an update. And I have stayed away form the maxi for the same reason. Well, that at the fact that I look like I am swimming in them. But I finally found one in a solid color in a petite size that I thought I'd give a try. They almost look like pajamas, and if all else fails maybe I'll wear it to bed:-)
Deletewhere did you get those pants?....seriously.
ReplyDeleteI got them at TJ Maxx several months ago before I knew I could wear them as clothes. They are 100% cotton and would probably wrinkle more than the ones pictured. But they are the same pants!
Deletelol. I'm still waiting for big, fluffy pink bathrobes to hit the runways. ;-)
