For example, I went to get a coffee last week at a little coffee shop. In the coffee shop was a fabulously dressed gay man with a Louis Vuitton bag for his laptop, a college girl with 2 different shoes on...2 DIFFERENT SHOES...when the f*ck did that become the style? Is that the style? Did I miss something? They were the same color hue, but different shoes. I was so confused. And then another girl came with in the cutest dress with a scarf and boots.
People in our town are all about the brown boots. Sadly, I went and bought a pair just to fit in. Granted I am too fat to wear them with tiny dresses or leggings, but that didn't stop me from buying leggings at which I shuddered because my belief has always been just because they make leggings in your size does not always mean you should wear them and here I am...horrifying the world with my legs...in leggings. Big ole leggings. And not even fashionable leggings (because those most definitely don't come in my size), but the kind they sell at Target or as seen on tv by the people that make the genie bra (which rocks by the way).
Now I went to a pretty ritzy college and those kids ain't got nothing on these UVA students. I have never seen college students so dressed up. Hello. You are in college. Why are you wearing a suit and tie? Where are your sweatpants? Why are you in a dress (and not the Lilly Pulitzer crap that girls at my college wore, but like super stylish with the boots)? Where are your flip flops? Why are you not hungover?
Even the other moms in my bible study group show up looking cute with their braided hair and scarfs and boots and jewelry and hair done and good personalities. I look like the Dobby the house elf dressed me out of his closet after he had a schizophrenic break down.
