So what does one do when one does not have PhotoShop? Put up the gnarly looking photos anyway!Borrowed Big R's Ben Sherman shirt and teamed it with my bargain of the week..........$7 PANTS! Was out scavenging in Glenfield Mall (hardly classify it as a mall-corner dairy?) purely because my best mate Pippi Longstockings HAD to go to Novo. And, if I'm being honest, I wanted to try and find some printed/patterned trousers I saw at ValleyGirl AGES (more on this in a second) ago and hoped they might be at the outlet store there.
Nope. Guts. But did find almost an entire wall section, two gondolas and a box on the floor of these pants. Red (will need if this red trend comes to fruition), brown (got 'em on), inky purple, navy beige, black, no grey? A kaleidiscope of $7 pantaloons. Suffice to say I bought them and have promptly worn them twice this week already.
I'm considering a job as a safety item of some sort after painting my claws in a fluoro colour that could only be described as "Safety Yellow". Every time I type or gesticulate these little beacons of gaudy yellow flash about. Big R says they are hazardous to his eyesight. I disagree.
As for the printed pants debacle (it can only be described as a debacle-I am still fuming!), it is ALL BIG R'S FAULT! A few weeks back, we were chillaxing at Albany Mall (even though I despise malls-they are an unfortunate necessity when your favoured supermarket is attached) and as I "just-have-a-quick-look" at most of the stores there, I spied a perfect pair of patterned trousers. Pattern? Check. Higher Waisted? Check. Volume? Check. Cuffed? Check. On Sale? Check. Big R, Can I Get These I Really Want Them? no. No. NO. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! Why did I listen to him? Why? So of course, I have not dropped the subject for WEEKS now-just so he can get a notion as to how much I really wanted said pants and what a mistake he has made by not letting me have them and the extent of the damage he has caused to my wardrobe. Clueless. Clue. Less. Lucky he got me some nice shoes for Christmas. I will probably be bitter and twisted for another few weeks until either I: a-find a pair of similar or THE pants.

Lmao, god your posts are always so hilarious. I find the situation can swing the other way too, like 'why did you let me waste money on this ugly thing? U so shoulda stopped me!'
ReplyDeleteI have still yet to see you rock your new shoess *hint hint*
As for those Topshop heels, was effing annoyed when they put them on sale (just 45 pounds!!!) a week after I bought them. Oh and don't worry about customs, they didn't even blink an eye at my Sam Edelmans when they came in.
I love the whole look from head to toenails. Loving it. The pants fit you perfect and the pop of color in the nails.
