Tired Random Fashion Thoughts

1) Thank you, Greek Goddess and HuskyGirl for your recommendation. Until recently, I didn't wear jeans to work, even on Fridays. Now, they're the most comfortable thing (and screw it, I say). Except that the waistband is getting a teeeeeeensy bit tight. So - undid that button and got me a big ol' rubber band (the kind you get from broccoli or asparagus bunches). Looped that sucker around the button and button hole - oila! pants are a little more comfortable. Now, if I could just get this kid to stop kicking my @##.

2) Baby Sis' bridal shower tomorrow. Packed in a stupor last night. Kept it light. H&M b&w wrap dress + Daslu boots OR H&M black babydoll sweater + grey tweed pencil skirt + Daslu boots. Just depends on how I feel tomorrow - or rather, how big I feel.

3) Not necessarily feeling big yet, just a little thicker. You wouldn't notice it on me walking down the street. But it is starting to affect style choices a little.

4) I guess I really should check with Jenny Yoo to see when I have to send in my final bump-friendly measurements. I had to change dresses a little, given that the Alana doesn't come bump-friendly, so ended up with Sophia. So much for wearing it again.

5) Looking forward to:

- LA trip - will show H the City of Angels and see The Liquid Muse
- Greece trip - over Easter. Darn. Just have to go visit H's relatives in Chania, Crete. Darn.
- Bump arrival - but that's a given, isn't it?

Now I'll go try and stay awake for the rest of my work day.

Random Fashion Musings

No, I don't really sit around all day and take pictures of my feet. I just have a few style ramblings for today, and thought I'd show you my work habitat...and my Circa by Joan & David pumps. (Yeah, yeah, yeah...sorta an old lady brand, but...) And we will not show you the khaki slacks I'm wearing, because they really don't go with the trouser socks the shoes force me to wear because otherwise they'd give me nasty ol' blisters and I can't wear any other shoes because I've worn the heels off of all of them.

My random thoughts:

Good: a sweater you can count on no matter what, even if it has a hole in it that you can camoflage with a same color bra. You feel comfortable in it, and confident. Always a good thing.

Better: Foortwear any color other than neutral, worn with a neutral or at minimum monochromatic ensemble. Gets compliments every time.

Best: Recognizing that your ability to not slip in said footwear is significantly impaired by its leather soles on the metal grid of the metro escalator and tile floor (why do they use that ridiculously slippery floor?!), and deciding not to walk down the escalator, despite the 100s of morning travelers streaming past you, the only under-60 person standing on the escalator. Because if you didn't stand still, you'd end up like the guy who went through the turnstile in front of you - on his face. Which, though very everyman, is decidedly unstylish.
