This is an outfit I’ve had in my head for months but I just never found the “right” occasion to wear it. Bell sleeves and bell bottoms? It had to be done. So on the day before my birthday I said “screw it” and I wore it to work. That meant wearing a white tank under the crop top so I wouldn’t flash anyone, but that didn’t really take away from the overall awesomeness that is having bells on every limb of your body.

My only regret from last Friday has nothing to do with my outfit – it’s the amount of queso I ate at dinner. I’m fairly confident that when these photos were taken, my body was 70% cheese.

OK, here’s my Olympics commentary for the day:

I don’t understand the female athletes who can do what they’re doing with their hair flying around. All I do is sit at a desk all day and be a lawyer (super easy stuff), and I have to braid my bangs and put my hair in a bun when it’s been more than 24 hours since a fresh wash. I’m not running or vaulting or playing volleyball. My most strenuous activity most days is leaning down to get snacks out of my bottom desk drawer. (Don’t judge. Eating multiple small meals is good for your metabolism. Or something like that.)
