WHY I DON'T WEAR JEANS , MUCH ............

I KNOW !!!
I'm wearing jeans.
I have probably posted myself in jeans no more than 10 times at the max.


There are many reasons.
1. I am shaped like a boy.
(my waist is only 2 inches more than my hips)
2. They aren't comfy.
3. I need low-rise or 
men's jeans to allow for a no-saggy butt. 
(again, no butt or hips:)

And forget high-waisted ones!
I have to wear those at least 3-4 sizes too big to fit my waist. Talk about Sag-@ss !!!


I own too many pair to count. If I told you just how many I have , you'd think I were bonkers ;) I've tried the "stretch" ones, the expensive ones, like Buffalo, the cheapos, like Bitten and Faded Glory. 


My favorites are Levi's 505 (men's), J Crew (they seem to have the least sagginess, even after a few days of wear.......  The more expensive ones seem to hold their shape best , and can be thrifted as well ;)


These are Element brand. Not too relaxing ..... It actually hurts to sit ;)
 Smiling through the pain, Or is it the Tears of a Clown?

This was as high as my leg would go............

And how about these crazy boots? I saw this outfit on another blogger a couple days ago, sporting these boots, and of course, i had a pair ;)

I like the layers with the snowy off-the-hook "so yesterday" boots :)

deets:

My vintage velvet purse (early 70's?)  ~  My Betmar wool thrifted hat / handknit scarf  ~  Faux vintage key ~ Banana Boat early 80's sunnies.....

AND :

a naughty peek at how low-rise these jeans really are! ( I'd never show this to just anyone ;)

Except a few hundred or so blog-buddies :)  NOTE the second belly-button? Bye, Bye, Miss Utero ;)

Artsy Fartsy's  ;)

Maybe this could be a new header photo? Hmmm............... ;)

A pretty funky "happy accident" :)

Ya know how outfits seem to have a mind of their own ? This one started off completely different. I've been admiring the super-long scarves dragging the ground on the "Peeper" Diva's as of late. They usually pair them up with a maxi, but I hoped to mix it up with a shorter dress instead. After a few changes, this is how it turned out :) I like wearing lighter colored shoes with dark legs and this hat was all matchy. I admit, it's not one of my favorites, but hey, tomorrow's another day ;) I haven't seen many short sleeved dresses over long sleeves ( like th 90's ). Maybe I'll start a trend !

When in doubt, I load up on the accessories ;)

All these necklaces are DIY'd from "parts".

( Newport News killer shoes, thrifted, of course )

My Mom swears I'll go bald if I keep wearing hats. I give it a year ........

Thanks for all the well-wishes for my brother :)

He will be having surgery soon. I spoke with him today. He's a tough nut !
