Pant rant

I have the worst time finding pants that fit. I actually like low-rise pants but I also won’t tollerate pants that make me moon people at the same time. Most of my jeans have some spandex in them so they stretch a bit and with a belt this means that even though they are low-rise, they don’t go sliding down when I bend over.

Finding a pair of pants that fit my butt without being so high waisted they might touch my bra is quite a task. Even though the trend is low-rise jeans finally, they’re making these pants for people who have no butts and there is such a thing as TOO low (most low-low rise jeans are.)

I hear that waist bands are going to rise again this fall. Why do we have to go with a higher waist pant because we’re sick of seeing butt cracks, why can’t they just make the pants for REAL people? Train people on how to pick out pants too (stop buying them too small just because you want to say you wear a smaller size … it’s pushing flab you didn’t even know you had out of the top!)

Oh this pant rant WILL be continued!

Preppy Business Casual Outfit

I like this outfit but, because of the pattern on the shoe, would need to change out the sash for possibly a solid white fabric/ribbon or mauybe a brown leather belt. Current outfit total without accessories =$155+s/h

Look what came in the mail!

Diane sent me these cute little earrings (because we’ve been talking a lot about flip flops recently.) Thank you Diane! Starting at the top left: flip flops, turtles, tiny hoops, small braided silver hoop. Photographed on top of the cute card she sent. 🙂

Blouses of a different color

Since I’m looking for the perfect white blouse right now, I’m coming across some other cute blouses that wanted to make a note of.


Esprit Cotton jaquard shirt
$65 from EspritShop.com

White and beige stripe with silver detailing. Nice, simple but different in a good way.

Delia’s Mackenzie Shirt
$28 from Delias.com

Ok, so it’s a teen clothing store. Sometimes you can find a good deal if you’re within a certain size range. I like the detailing on this shirt. It’s cotton, basic and it’s a really good price.

Delias stripped


Diesel Coly Shirt
$140 from Shopbop.com

I love the design on the back of the shirt, the color and the style is a little more unique. Only thing is that if you go to the site and see the front view, it looks a bit short.

Victoria’s Secret Stretch French cuff shirt in tonal stripes
$48 – sale $38 at VictoriasSecret.com

I like the color and style enough on this one to forgive the french cuff on the sleeves. Comes in a jewel toned teal blue and also a violet rose.
