I Wear the Pants

PANTS. I’m wearing them. I feel like it’s been forever since I did. I’ve been living in skirts and dresses all summer, but after the last generation worked so hard to let women wear pants in the first place, I feel like it would be disrespectful to them not to wear leg sleeves once in a while. (That’s a hip new term for pants – leg sleeves. FYI. Tell your friends.)

When I put this on, I felt very tomboyish. Because boys wear pants, and because any belt thicker than 1/4″ is super butch. I mean I was never a tomboy, but I’m pretty sure I’m right about this. Now if you’ll excuse me, I’ll just strut on over to the baseball field and play a match. Touchdown!

Sunshine, Flowers, and Puppies

OK, full disclosure. There aren’t any puppies in this post. Just sunshine and flowers. I usually don’t take photos in this spot in the afternoon for the very reason that the sun shines through the railing and  trees, making lots of crazy shadows. But there’s something about the first sunny, 80 degree day of the spring/summer that makes a girl want to put on a floral skirt and pose awkwardly with her tripod on her balcony. Am I right, ladies?

So who cares that sometimes the sun’s bouncing off my skin in all its super white glory, and 2 inches away another part of me is hiding in the shadows? It’s times like this I’m really glad I made my blog about real life and not perfection. Not that I’m not perfect. It’s just the sun that’s flawed. No amount of Clinique will get rid of those sun spots.
