People liked my orange pants, I guess.
What a waste though because you couldn’t see them, and they were super-sweaty on my calves. But the only other black shoes I have are Danskos, and I thought Kate the Ginger Menace would tsk at me if I wore clogs with my sassy orange pants. KATE, YOU’RE IN MY HEAD.
Other than the squeeziness on my calves, I liked this outfit OK. I’d wear it again.
I’d definitely wear the next get-up.
(Sorry about the shmutz on the mirror. Sixth graders.)
I love this outfit and will definitely wear the shit out of it… as soon as I get the shirt fixed. I pulled on a stray thread, and the whole hem came out of the back. Bullshit. I’m taking it back to BR, and they’re going to sew it up, or I’ma put a world of hurt on them.
OK. So. I promised Kate I would wear a skirt once every two weeks (wah!). Well, the school district called a delayed opening on Monday because of inclement weather—that meant I’d have to wear the skirt for three fewer hours than other days (woohooooooooooo!)—so I went for it.
Now, I built the outfit around the tall boots. I was really psyched about showing them off. But when I got dressed, I realized the skirt came down to mid-knee, and the boots came up to mid-knee, and the result was that nary a bit o’ leg showed betwixt, aaaaaand it looked like I had prosthetic legs.
So I switched to my pointy flats.
[Side note: On our shopping trip, Kate kept trying to get me to buy heels.
Kate: What about these?
Me: Those are heels.
Kate: But they’d look so good!
Me: Kate! I told you I can’t wear heels*!
Kate: But they’d look so gooooooooooood.
Me: Kate! It’s a medical issue! After I wore those strappy blue sandals with the wedge heel to Craig and Michelle’s party last summer, my toes were numb until Wednesday. The party was on a Saturday, and I couldn’t feel my feet until Wednesday.
Kate: …What about a kitten heel?
Me: Bah!
*It looks like the tall boots have a heel, but it’s, like, an inch, and besides, they’re Aerosoles, thus they’re pretty cushy. Even so, my toes tingle by the end of the day.]
Kate wanted me to buy a girdle to wear with this skirt. (Nowadays, people say “Spanx”, but let’s call a spade a spade, shall we?) I felt like I was going above and beyond the call of duty by wearing not only the skirt but the tights too, so
Verdict: I felt totally uncomfortable the entire (albeit shortened) day. Kate said, “You look great! What would we have to do to make you comfortable in this?”
I said, “Make it into pants.”
Damn Amy, you know you’re hot, right??? I hope you do.
:D
Note: I did not *want* you to buy Spanx, I only asked if they’d make you feel more comfortable. I personally find that shit uncomfortable as hell, but I know other people like them and swear by them and I’m not in other people’s bodies. I think you look UH-MAZE-ING-LY FANTACULAR (that’s fantastic and spectacular) in your new wardrobe, I just want you to feel that way, too. I want it RULL HARD. And I’ll keep work-harder-kateing until you do. ‘Cause that’s how I roll.
My bad, Kate. You’re doing a yeoman’s work here, and I appreciate the shit out of it—I hope you know that.
i love you, kate.
i hope it won’t be awkward between us, should we ever meet.
but…
i love you.
amy. you. loooook. GOOOOOOD!!!!!!!!!!!! lovelovelove. i love you.
Love your outfits! I LOVE fashion, and think it’s so much fun.
Gotta agree with the other girls here – loved your outfits. Especially the orange pants! and the color block sweater really accentuates your slim middle so I thought that was particularly cute. Good work, Amy!
I also gotta agree with the other girls here. Especially the gap jeans, stripey shirt deal. Color block sweater is fab, fab, fab. Orange pants! You’re utter cuteness in the skirt-thing too. So, all around, total success.
Love, B
Hahaha! Thanks, girl.
Awsome site! I am loving it!! Will come back again. I am taking your feeds also.
Good blog post. What I would like to contribute is that laptop memory is required to be purchased but if your computer still cannot cope with whatever you do by using it. One can mount two RAM boards containing 1GB each, as an illustration, but not certainly one of 1GB and one having 2GB. One should check the company’s documentation for own PC to make certain what type of memory space is needed.
This actually answered my problem, thanks!
