Ootd: Apocalypse Soonish

What does one wear while waiting for the end of the world?  Ideally I’d wear a ball gown and drink but I had to go Adult so we settled on a Tracy Reese dress w pockets and a silk pinstriped blouse.  Probably still going to drink.

Omfg Vogue

Screw humble brags.  I’m in muthafuckin Vogue.  My ootd was picked by editors (of Vogue!!!) as one of best suits. Click to see-– scroll to #suiting_vogue and I’m really in there.  Pinch me. I’ve always loved the creativity and self-expression of fashion.  One day I’ll tell you all about my short, hilarious, brutal time working in…

The art of shopping at Forever 21 (when you are totally not 21)

The greatest myth about Forever 21 is that it’s target audience is 21 year old’s.  The clothes are really geared towards middle schoolers, who have limited budgets, questionable taste, and 4% body fat. So, when a certain old lady goes wandering in there, you think, what the fuck? I am about 20 years too old…

Ootd: fat day tunic

Okay so it’s more like a fat month.  Or fat several months.  But this tunic covers an unappealing situation and it has elephants on it.  Note to self: the beer and cheese diet hadn’t caught on for a reason sister. 

Ootd: I am a storm cloud 

Yes it’s bright and blue here in Boulder but I have to do some Adult Lawyer Shit and am suited accordingly.  I’ve made poor life choices.  

Ootd : last days of summer 

Summer is wrapping up with beer & pizza festival.  Most Boulderites are wearing activewear.  I am, naturally, not. 

Ootd: places to go

Dude, August is the worst.  So hot. So busy.  But September is here! And tights!  Although still super busy and out the door.

Ootd: Mermaid off the port bow!

Vail has a pirate ship playground which makes no sense whatsoever but the kids (and girls who always thought Wenches seemed rad) love it. Also proof that you don’t have to wear fleece and yoga pants just because you’re in Colorado. 

Clear the Rack & Exercise that Nordstrom Card

It’s here again!! My most beloved sale event is ON.  25% off all clearance, some of which are already marked at more than 75% off retail.   I snuck away from work to get to Nordstrom Rack as it opened so I could harvest the best, uh, fruit? Where is this metaphor going….  Anyway, an…

Ootd: Sit! 

The power of Marc Jacobs compels you! Darwin the beagle is not persuaded…..

Ootd: What do you do with a drunken sailor/ a scarf?

Scarfs in the abstract are so cool but what the hell do you DO with them?  I really don’t want to look like Margaret Thatcher.  Solution:  twist into a headband with braids and semi-nautical outfit.  Ahoy bitches.
