Just a few things I’ve been up to lately…….
- Let’s talk about this poncho
So I bought this poncho on a whim while shopping with my girls on Elaine’s 40th birthday. It’s not really my usual style, but I don’t have much style anyway. After trying it on in the store the checkout girl commented that after she saw me in it, she wanted to buy one for herself. When I got home that evening my boyfriend just kinda looked at it funny and was like “what’s with the poncho?” A few days later I threw it on again when we went out to grab a bite to eat and the hostess complimented me on it. I wore it again the other day to run some errands and I swear some lady wanted to tackle me for it. Which lead me to think about a conversation I had before with one of my best friends. It was also an article in a magazine a long time ago. It’s about as a girl/woman do you dress for men or do you dress for women? My bestie, who I had this conversation with, is our fashion icon. Actually we all consider her our own personal stylist too. She couldn’t come shopping with us on Elaine’s 40th even though we were literally 10 minutes from her house, because she was on vacation. So as the little fashionista, my bestie said she dresses for women. I on the other hand dress for men. Meaning she would rather be looked at /admired/ complimented on her outfits by women and I on the other hand want men to drool all over me admire/compliment my outfits. I realized my poncho is a girl thing. It’s a very weird experience for me. Now, I bet if I wear the poncho with some skinny jeans or leggings and high-heeled black leather thigh high boots I could then get some men to drool over like the poncho.
- Let’s talk TV. I’m an episode behind on Fear the Walking Dead. We finally watched the last episode of The Walking Dead season 5 and OMG!!! Glad it got way better and ended so awesome. We are still binge watching The Wire. It’s really funny because one of the main characters in the 1st season of The Wire is Bob from the Walking Dead. And in season 3 of the Wire one of the characters is Tyrese (like half his size in the Wire but still a big boy) from the Walking Dead. It’s kind of funny to see them in 2 totally different roles. Oh and I cannot wait for Empire to start tonight!!!!!
- It’s the first day of Autumn. BLAH! It means winter is coming. WAH!
