Take Me Out To The Ballgame

Ok, there was no ballgame this morning but didn't those bleachers make a nice stop off for pictures?  I was on my way to brunch where pajamas are not socially acceptable so the next best thing is a babydoll like swing top thingy that covers up the "OMG-I-ate-so-much-and-I-want-to-unbotton-my-pants-now" feeling.  Do you know what that's like?  Good cause I don't.



Don't mess with me when I'm hungry.  I will tear you up.  No, I'm just kidding but LOOK at that face.

Neon

Here is my look from Saturday....after the rain....you know when it gets a little humid and there's no point to wearing anything too nice or doing anything with the hair.   But it was worth wearing neon for.  Loving neon!  Do you like the pop of neon in my laces?  Sorry I'm not feeling too creative this morning.  I overslept and I've gotta GO!!!!!!!

Wallpaper Pants

I'm pretty sure my grandmother had wallpaper and maybe matching curtains in this same pattern!    I thrifted these pants and I can see why someone would get rid of these, but the longer I had 'em, the more I liked 'em.  I wore them yesterday and did get some stares.....I'm sure it was because they are so awesome, right?

Neon Pastel

Oxymoron---a figure of speech that combines contradictory terms. 

That's my outfit today....how can it be both neon and pastel?   I've managed to defy the English language with my sartorial choice.  Well, not really.  It's called creativity, baby!    Go with it.  






Yes, I love swinging this bag.

Conservatism

I had to dress up on Friday to read an essay to a group of conservative "oldies but goodies" for a contest I entered.  I decided not to offend any of them with a teeny tiny miniskirt or a sheer top showing my bra.  Enter the conservative skirt and respectable jacket.  I hope they weren't offended with my flip flops.....oh well.  Smiles all around!!!

Exit stage left.

Neon Leopard

I wore this yesterday to run around town in.  I wasn't really doing anything but I've learned if you look busy, then you must be busy.  I chose this flimsy sheer leopard top with a neon green tank top underneath.  And then I felt a little cowgirl inspired with my bling belt.   So.....cowgirl neon leopard.....hey, that's how I roll.

Yellow

I found this swing dress thing at the thrift shops for $1.95 and couldn't resist.   My mom used to dress me in these things when I was 5 and I remember how grown up I felt.  Putting one on again didn't make me feel grown up but the nostalgia was worth $1.95, right?   I threw on this yellow jacket for some color and cause I like it and it matches the plastic "Birkin". 

The photographer and I were playing around with sunlight today and here's what I learned:  Trying to smile looking directly into the sun makes my face look like I'm either going to puke or have the worst cramps of my life. 

How's that for getting the weekend started?
