loves it / hates it

LOVES my 8AM disco party in my room!!! every morning!

just realized today that the sun hits the mini-disco balls I have hanging on my chandelier every morning and projects thousands of tinkerbell shimmers all over my walls and ceiling at 8am every day.

maybe today is the beginning of me loving 8am??!!


HATES baggy jeans tucked into boots



ok people, so CLEARLY the look this season is jeans/leggings/tights/whatever you've got tucked into boots- but that does not mean that ALL JEANS are meant (made) to be tucked into boots. GEEEZZZEEEEE.

you cannot be tucking baggy jeans into your boots! you'll look like a chimney sweep!! or someone from the time period where they wore pantaloons... you know what i'm saying??

ok, here's cameron totally casually rockin' what the desired look is to be:



now, it's ok to not be wearing skin tight jeans. usually, too tight pants are going to be capable of looking worse than too loose pants... but tucked into boots is one of the few cases, where you're going to look a lot less less attractive (you followin' me?) if your pants fall on the too tight side of the scale rather than the too loose.

and besides, the worst part is that everyone doing this is walking around thinking they're looking all super-fly because they got the hottest boots this season, but REALLY they're just screaming out that they don't ACTUALLY know what the fashion dilly is because they're wearing the RIGHT TRENDS ALL WRONG.

which, i think, is even worse, because they clearly CARE... but are failing. (as opposed to the woman in white tennis shoes over her panty-hose power walking during lunch. she just don't care. more power (walkin) to her.)

EXCEPTION TO THE RULE: going to work. why? because no one wears super tight pants in a business professional or business casual environment at work, but many people need to wear boots to work. AND I MEAN TO WORK. as in, commuting. not AT WORK. better not take my ish out of context people!

more importantly why is it OK? because i do it, so i have to say it's ok. pshhhhh. that's right. i write the blog, i write the rules. DEAL WIT IT.

again, this is one of the (rare... i hope) cases where function trumps fashion.

i knowwww. i said it. don't flog me fashionistas!!!!
