ain't no hobo.

i had big plans for these pin-striped sailor jeans....big plans.
was excited to show them to you.
got ready, ran out the door...only to remember the reason why i haven't worn these brand new jeans yet is because it is missing a button. crap.
no time or energy to rethink a new outfit, just grabbed something, anything long to cover the missing button.
ran into an acquaintance on the way to the office:
him: you don't work today?
me: i do.
him: wow, you can dress all hobos to work?
me: *insert weird beavis & butthead laugh here...uh-huh-huh-huh*
him: nah, i go to work like this too (pointing to his baggy cargos and t-shirt)

um, excuse me...this is my good t-shirt. lol. so i threw on this vest, which i had in the car, and my huge round sunglasses to complete my hobo look.
sailor pants will have to make its debut another day. ahoy.

(jeans & tee, f21; vest, gift)

Love your sense of style! You're very classy and I love how you usually extend your height by adding a heel. It looks great with your flared jeans! LOVE the glasses! I need to get a pair, too!

You look so good in these types of pants! It makes you look super tall and lean. Love the touch of fur also.
Thanks for the comment! I thought you might like the mix of girly rock. I was totally trying to channel my inner oomph. Lol.

Rebel Attitude said...

woooooow, you are always fantastic in your post. I follow you!!!

Vanessa said...

The vest is wonderful, as are the pants!
I just hate it when I forget to mend or repair something and only realize it too late. For me, it's usually an unfortunately placed hole in a sweater or something!

Elisse said...

Good idea to keep that vest in your car - although I think you rocked the outfit without it!
