These photos are from a while back, as you can tell by my manicure. The manicure always gives it away—when I watch Storage Wars and Brandi has the same nails in a whole series of episodes, I wonder “Damn, do they go film auctions every DAY?!”
These Nike Frees are the trainers I wear most often, several times a week, because obvi they are super versatile and go with everything. Sometimes I leave them in my desk at work and wear them for my lunchtime walk, and I feel very Melanie-Griffith-Working-Girl.
Random turtleneck, pants by Mossimo, $7.48 on clearance at Target, jewelry from Tiffany and swap meet 20 years ago, Nike Frees from Sports Authority, can’t remember how much but I had a 20% coupon for sure!

I found these earrings in a box of old high school stuff and just had to wear them today. High school, when Raw Like Sushi was on a loop that must have prompted me to buy ‘em. I thought, “I should do Neneh Cherry for Song/Look of the Day”, then got caught up in other stuff. Later on Facebook when I posted this pic to lament the fact that my bf loathes sock buns, my friend Jamie goes, “BUT THE EARRINGS. So ‘Buffalo Stance’.”
So, y’know. The universe hath spoken.
I had been drooling over these shoes since I saw them on various blogger gal types. They finally went on sale and I snagged them, only to try them on and have that buzzkill letdown bummer moment when I realize…these shits are too high for me!! My feet cannot do this sharp of an incline beyond just standing there for a pic. Walking? Noooo, ma’am. Not happening. I don’t abuse my feet in the world I live in, to paraphrase Neil from The Young Ones.
So off to eBay they scurried, to be sold to a more adventurous gal who can handle this degree of tilt in her life. Brava, adventurous gal! I salute you!
