Great Expectations

Something I've noticed about bloggers these days... DO YOU REALLY WEAR LIPSTICK AND J. CAMPBELLS EVERYDAY? To the bank? To the pharmacy? To buy milk?

I mean, if you do, more power to you.

My dream used to be driving around in a white Landrover, wearing expensive lingerie and a fur coat. With my exotic parrot riding shotgun. Now I'm lucky to walk out of the house wearing something I didn't wear the day before.

So, to adapt a well-loved meme:

EXPECTATIONS:

Boots, Etsy; shorts, Blank denim cutoffs; shirt, Buffalo Exchange; sunnies, vintage shop.

REALITY:

Birkenstocks and socks.

I dress for comfort and I look like a bum more often than not. That's because The Dude is my style icon.

That's just like your opinion, man

  3. I have to say that I admire Your attitude. It's pure perfection for me. Like You said - DO YOU REALLY WEAR LIPSTICK AND J. CAMPBELLS EVERYDAY? ;P
    I don't- that is why I have a problem with putting sets into my blig, becouse I am always on the run, or climbing on mountains, or wandering through forests, and I really can't wear high heels all the time and full make-up ;) Healthy life attitude You have girl ! Well done!

  4. Love this post. I fully agree with you I rarely wear heels and lipstick and find it so weird that some bloggers live in heels. X
