I’m clearly wishing it were spring today …and judging by the weather here in LA, it feels like it’s just about here, so I’m going with it. That said, I really wasn’t too creative this morning and this was all I could come up with. Anything I added just felt wrong …I tried a belt, a scarf …nothing worked.
Last night my husband and I got into a discussion about fashion which was eye-opening to say the least. I love hearing a man’s view because it’s often the complete opposite of a woman’s.
We scrolled through my outfit posts on the old blog all the way back to the beginning so I could get some visual examples of what exactly he doesn’t like. Every outfit that he pointed out as “good” was one that I thought was totally boring and unfinished …much like today, something is just missing in my opinion. Maybe a necklace would have helped …maybe a huge pair of earrings …I dunno but I bet I’d know it if I saw it.
He used a food analogy: “It’s like you have this really great cupcake and all it needs is a little icing but then you add a candy bar and some m&m’s and more icing and then it just ruins the cupcake.”
He complains that I cover up all the goods and basically wishes that I wore a body conscious, cleavage enhancing, leg revealing dress with no sleeves all the time. I said “What about during winter? …when it’s um, cold?” …he just giggled.
This morning as I was leaving he told me I looked really pretty …I told him I felt hideous. …and there you have it.
